Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Chartridge
Wondering whether the fault is something simple? Check the filter, the mode, the set temperature and the remote’s batteries first, then call us on 07833 053749 or email us if the problem is still there. We reply to enquiries the same working day. Typical jobs include an error code or flashing light on the unit and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room, across wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and ducted systems.
Around Chartridge, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: 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 use the quote form.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Write down the fault code if there is one
- Don’t keep resetting a breaker that trips
- Have the system serviced once a year
You get a note of the fault and what we did: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records, so keep the note with the system’s paperwork.
Give the outdoor unit space. Leaves, plants and stored items around it restrict airflow and make the system work harder, and debris can get into the fan.
Air conditioning repairs in Chartridge: local notes
Rose Tree Cottage, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 12 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Chartridge’s centre. If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit. About 80% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs.
Schools such as Chartridge Combined School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term. Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller.

For landlords and property managers
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. 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.
Chartridge questions
Will you come out to Chartridge?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do you cover Chartridge for emergency air conditioning repairs?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Chartridge is one of the places it covers. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
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.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
An error code points us in the right direction, but it isn’t the whole answer. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, then phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
How long does the visit take?
We’ll confirm the time with your quote. As a guide, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. A dirty filter is worth checking first and if that is not it, we’ll find the cause.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. If a lane or gateway near Chartridge is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.
- Describe the problem and the brand, and mention any code on the display.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Before we arrive
