Air conditioning repair in Camber

Not sure whether it’s worth calling an engineer? Check the filter, the mode, the set temperature and the remote’s batteries first, and if that doesn’t fix it, ring 07833 053749 or send an email. We reply to enquiries the same working day. We’re often asked to deal with drips from the indoor unit and ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes, on heat pumps, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes.

We plan the trip to Camber so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.

Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Camber questions

Do you cover Camber for emergency air conditioning repairs?

Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Camber. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.

Is Camber within the area you cover?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

What can I do with an old R22 system?

Most of the time, we recommend replacement. New R22 can’t be used to service systems, and parts for older units are getting harder to find, so we will quote for a modern replacement and explain why.

Why is my air conditioning icing up?

Ice is a symptom of low airflow or low refrigerant. A clogged filter, a fan problem or a leak are typical. Switch the system off, let it thaw and ring 07833 053749.

What does an air con repair cost?

Diagnosis call-outs start from £75 + VAT. When we’ve found the fault, the repair is priced before we do it. The cost depends on the fault, the parts and access to the units.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

Can you still repair R410A air conditioning?

Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.

What air conditioning repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:

  • An old system with obsolete parts
  • A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that is for the network operator)
  • Heat gains the system was never designed for

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Wall-mounted split systems

What a repair looks like in Camber

Camber lies within about 1 mile of the sea. On a coastal repair, we look at the outdoor unit for corrosion as well as the fault you called about. Central Camber is inside a conservation area. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.

A unit that keeps tripping or showing the same code is worth a proper diagnosis. The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts.

Camber is about 11 miles north-east of Hastings, in East Sussex. Whatever kind of property you have in Camber, our engineers can help with air conditioning repair.

What owners can safely do

There are a few things you can safely do yourself: 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.

Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

What we do, step by step

Protection comes first: sheets over the floor and any furniture nearby, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts, and we tidy up before we leave. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Camber can be planned properly.

  1. Diagnosis comes first: codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
  2. Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
  3. If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
  4. Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
  5. The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.

Before we arrive

  • Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
  • Clear access to the fuse board

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too across East Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building around the people who use them.

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.

What a customer said

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
