Air conditioning repair in Cheriton, done properly
Refrigerant doesn’t get used up, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Topping up without a repair only delays the next breakdown. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge, then record it in the F-Gas records. Common call-outs are for a unit blowing warm air and a unit that has lost refrigerant, across multi-split systems, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes.
In a village like Cheriton, most air conditioning we repair is in homes, garden rooms and the occasional pub or village business. A photo of the unit’s label and a description of the fault help us plan.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

What air conditioning repair can’t fix
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 can’t be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
If you are not sure, just call 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Air conditioning repairs in Cheriton: local notes
The 2021 Census found about 69% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. About 38 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Cheriton, Church of St Michael (grade I) among them. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts. When cooling fails at a school like Cheriton Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.

Cheriton questions
Will you come out to Cheriton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Cheriton out of hours?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Cheriton. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We are an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
Common causes are a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that cannot breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Start by checking the filter and the mode, then phone us on 07833 053749 if it’s still not cooling.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Owner checks or an engineer?
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
From one of our customers
“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.”
