Owner checks or an engineer?
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
How we handle air conditioning repair in Bowers Gifford
Not sure whether it’s worth calling an engineer? A quick check of the filter, settings and remote can rule out the simple causes, then ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form if the problem is still there. You will hear back from us the same working day. If you are dealing with drips from the indoor unit and a fault code on the display, we can help.
A visit to Bowers Gifford is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Bowers Gifford questions
Can you do air conditioning repair in Bowers Gifford?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Bowers Gifford is part of that. To start, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few photos.
Is Bowers Gifford within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some warranty terms require the system to be serviced regularly by a qualified engineer, so it’s worth checking. Keep every service record either way.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Tell us the code, the make and the model and we will test the system to confirm the cause.
How much is an air conditioning call-out?
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When we have found the fault, the repair is priced before we do it. The cost depends on the fault, the parts and access to the units.
How long will you be on site?
That depends on what’s involved, but as a guide it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. We will give you a firmer idea when we quote.
Common problems we fix in Bowers Gifford
When the fan runs but the air is not cold, there are some common causes: a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that cannot breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Diagnosis narrows it down.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- New noises from the system
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- A system that keeps cutting out
For a school like St Margaret's Church of England Academy, urgent repairs can be booked straight away and bigger work in the holidays.

How the job changes from property to property
Wall-mounted split systems
The single split is the most common system we’re called to. Drains, coils, fans, sensors and leaks account for many of the faults and the diagnosis starts with the fault code and the symptoms.
Refrigerant leaks
Adding refrigerant without a repair isn’t a fix, and it releases more refrigerant into the air. We always find and fix the leak first.
What happens on the day
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Work in Bowers Gifford is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- Once you are happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
