Signs you need air conditioning repair in Chandler's Ford
When the fan runs but the air isn’t cold, there are some common causes: dirty filters, wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis narrows it down.
Look out for any of the following:
- An error code or flashing light on the unit
- Weak airflow from the indoor unit
- Drips from the indoor unit
Near Chandlers Ford station, as anywhere, a photo of the error code on the controller is the quickest way to start a repair.

Chandler's Ford questions
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Chandler's Ford?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Chandler's Ford. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Can I get a fixed-price quote for air conditioning repair in Chandler's Ford?
Use the quote form, or email, with a description of the job. Where pictures are not enough, a survey comes first and the fixed-price quote follows.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Why is water dripping from my indoor unit?
In most cases, it’s the condensate system: a blockage, a kink or a pump that has stopped. Switch the unit off to avoid water damage, then call us.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
The code is the system’s own clue to the fault, but it is not the whole answer. Write down the code and turn the unit off if it has stopped, then give us a ring on 07833 053749.
Rented and managed buildings
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.
If you look after several properties, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Each property gets its own records, so the files stay tidy.
System by system
Multi-split systems
A multi-split links several indoor units to one outdoor unit, so a fault outside can affect every room, while a fault inside may affect only one. It tells us where to look first.
VRF systems
In a VRF system, many indoor units share outdoor plant. We use the system’s fault history and codes, then test to confirm and the repair is priced before any work starts.
