- A system that won’t switch on
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- New noises from the system
What we do, step by step
If the system has to be off for part of the visit, we tell you before we start so it doesn’t catch you out. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Somewhere like Crookham, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Before we arrive
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

How we handle air conditioning repair in Crookham
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, 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. If the problem is a system that needs topping up again and poor airflow even with clean filters, we can help.
Outdoor units in a place like Crookham can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

What the work involves, system by system
VRF systems
VRF systems link many indoor units to shared outdoor units, often across a whole building. Faults are diagnosed through the system’s own fault codes and controls, then confirmed by testing and the repair is priced before any work starts.
Ducted and cassette systems
Water through a ceiling below a cassette or ducted unit needs prompt attention. The cause is normally the condensate pump, a blocked drain or a tray that’s overflowing and the diagnosis covers each of them.
Common questions in Crookham
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Crookham?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Crookham is one of the places it covers. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Is Crookham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How much is an air conditioning call-out?
It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. You decide before any repair work starts.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
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.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before you book and we’ll gladly show you ours.

Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it
- Book an annual service after the repair
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
The repair is written up: what was wrong, what was replaced and any refrigerant work. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records, so keep the note with the system’s paperwork.
Filter cleaning is the simplest prevention there is. Blocked filters cut airflow, which can lead to poor cooling, ice on the coil and drips, so keep them clean as the manual describes.
What a repair looks like in Crookham
Historic England lists about 8 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Crookham, including Manor Farmhouse (grade II). That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 72% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
When cooling fails at a school like Brimpton C.E. Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons. The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring 07833 053749 or send an email.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
