About our air conditioning repair in Cranham
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. The work covers ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and multi-split systems, and people most often call us about a system that won’t switch on and a unit that barely blows any air.
Air conditioning repairs in Cranham are often in flats, offices and shops, where the outdoor unit may be on a balcony, a rear wall or the roof. Telling us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it saves time on the visit.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Different systems, different jobs
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it, then repair, pressure test and recharge.
Wall-mounted split systems
On a wall-mounted split, the indoor and outdoor units talk to each other through a control cable. A break in that communication normally brings up an error code, and we test the cable, the boards and the connections to find the cause.

Signs you need air conditioning repair in Cranham
When the fan runs but the air is not cold, there are some common causes: dirty filters, wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Testing tells us which.
Common reasons people call us are:
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- A unit that will not start
- A unit blowing warm air
When cooling fails at a school like Hall Mead School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.

What a repair looks like in Cranham
About 64% of homes in Cranham and the neighbourhoods around it date from 1945 to 1972, according to VOA council tax data, and about 72% 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. In London buildings, outdoor units can be on roofs or in light wells, so let us know where yours is.
Near Upminster station, as anywhere, a photo of the error code on the controller is the quickest way to start a repair.

The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Photos of the room and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan most of a visit to Cranham in advance.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
