Daw's End: your questions answered
Will you come out to Daw's End?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is Daw's End in your area for air conditioning repair?
We do: Daw's End falls inside our working area. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email with a few pictures.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we’ll explain them, and book the service at the interval they recommend.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
The coil gets too cold when air can’t move across it or when the refrigerant charge is low. Check the filter first, and if it’s clean, the system needs a diagnosis.
How long does the work take?
We will confirm the time with your quote. In most cases, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find.

- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes

How the job changes from property to property
Wall-mounted split systems
The single split is the most common system we’re called to. Typical faults include blocked drains, dirty coils and filters, failed fan motors, sensor faults and refrigerant leaks and the diagnosis starts with the fault code and the symptoms.
Refrigerant leaks
If the charge is low, there’s a leak somewhere. The leak is found and fixed, then the circuit is tested, evacuated and recharged and every step is recorded.
A customer’s words
“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.”
