How we handle air conditioning repair in Coombe
Refrigerant does not get used up, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge, then record it in the F-Gas records. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a system that keeps cutting out.
A visit to Coombe is planned so we can normally finish in one go, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

What we do, step by step
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Coombe.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- The system is run and checked, and you get a written note of the repair.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in

Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

What air conditioning won’t do
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A discontinued model with no parts available
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Check the settings and the remote’s batteries first
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
A returning symptom is worth reporting quickly. Describe what’s happening and any error code, and we will look into it.
Don’t ignore early signs. A drip, a new noise, a weaker airflow or an occasional error code is often the first sign of a fault, and early diagnosis typically means a smaller repair.
Common questions in Coombe
Is Coombe within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Coombe?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Coombe. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
The code is the system’s own clue to the fault, but it isn’t the whole answer. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement.
Why deal with it now?
Running with a fault wastes electricity. A dirty coil, a blocked filter or a low refrigerant charge all make the system work harder for less cooling, and the extra strain can shorten the life of the compressor. Planning ahead for a job in Coombe means we can bring everything needed.
The cost depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Air conditioning repair around Coombe
Central Coombe is inside a conservation area. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 13 within half a mile of the centre, such as Coombe Lane Cottage (grade II). For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. VOA council tax data put about 37% of homes in and around Coombe before 1919, and the last census (2021) found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller. If a system fails at a school such as Ash Cartwright and Kelsey Church of England Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
