FAQs for Brock Hill
Can you do air conditioning repair in Brock Hill?
Yes, Brock Hill is within the area we cover. To start, call us on 07833 053749 with a few pictures.
Do you cover smaller places like Brock Hill?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis confirms the cause, then give you a fixed price to fix it.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 can’t be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a leak typically makes replacement the sensible route. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we are Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What owners can safely do
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
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 helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
- Book an annual service after the repair
- Clear debris away from the outdoor fan
After a repair, the basics matter: clean filters every few weeks in heavy use and space around the outdoor unit. A yearly service catches problems before they become breakdowns.
Give the outdoor unit space. Leaves, plants and stored items around it restrict airflow and make the system work harder and debris drawn into the fan can cause noise and damage.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Brock Hill
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so the files stay tidy.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.
What happens on the day
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Brock Hill so we arrive with what’s needed.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know where we can park and unload
