Safe owner checks
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Braughing
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When the cause is found, the repair is priced before anything else is done and nothing goes ahead without your say-so. We’re often asked to deal with air conditioning running but not cooling and a noisy indoor or outdoor unit, across multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems.
Around Braughing, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

When air con fails in Braughing
Central Braughing is inside the Braughing Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 69 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Braughing; Ivy Cottage (grade II) is one. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. The 2021 Census found about 67% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
If a system fails at a school such as Jenyns First School and Nursery, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays. If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.

Braughing: your questions answered
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Braughing?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Braughing. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Do you cover smaller places like Braughing?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards before we leave.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we will tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
Most of the time, we recommend replacement. R22 can’t be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so a new system on a modern refrigerant is normally the better investment.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Braughing.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Before we arrive
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
Get a fixed-price quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

What a customer said
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
