Air conditioning repair in Chipping Ongar, Essex
Air conditioning repair in Chipping Ongar from an F-Gas certified company, with the manufacturer’s warranty terms explained on your quote. Enquiries answered the same working day.

- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
The process
You do not need to do much on the day. Someone needs to let us in and show us the units, or where they’re going, and we take it from there. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. We load the van from the survey notes so the work in Chipping Ongar can be done in one go where possible.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- The repair is carried out, and any refrigerant work is leak tested and recorded.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
How to prepare
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

Chipping Ongar questions
Can you do air conditioning repair in Chipping Ongar?
We do: Chipping Ongar falls inside our working area. To start, call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Chipping Ongar out of hours?
Chipping Ongar is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Do you work on all makes?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
What accreditations do you have?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
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 fill in the contact form.
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.

Do you need air conditioning repair in Chipping Ongar?
Leaks tend to start where pipes are joined: joints, valves and sections of pipe worn by vibration or damage. Coils can corrode and leak too and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.
These are the situations we see most often:
- A flashing light and a system that will not run
- Drips from the indoor unit
- Air conditioning running but not cooling
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller.
What your quote should include
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- The make and model of any parts or equipment being quoted
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that’s for the network operator)
- Heat gains the system was never designed for
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
If you are not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
