How we handle air conditioning repair in Drayton
When air conditioning stops cooling, leaks water or shows an error code, the symptom rarely tells you the cause. A unit blowing warm air might have a blocked filter, a failed sensor, a fault on the circuit board or a refrigerant leak, which is why diagnosis comes first. Common call-outs are for a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and a noisy indoor or outdoor unit, across ducted systems, heat pumps and ceiling cassettes.
Around Drayton, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. Describe the fault and send a photo of the unit’s label so we can plan the visit.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

How it works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. For a place like Drayton, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- You tell us the symptoms, the make and any error code.
- The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

What else we do in Drayton
Common questions in Drayton
Do you cover Drayton for emergency air conditioning repairs?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Drayton is one of the places it covers. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Do you cover smaller places like Drayton?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
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 can tell you which band your system falls into.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Will I get records for the system?
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.
How much is an air conditioning call-out?
Diagnosis call-outs start from £75 + VAT. When we’ve found the fault, the repair is priced before we do it. The cost depends on the fault, the parts and access to the units.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Drayton and across Hampshire. Let us know who the records should go to.
After we have gone
Simple habits make a real difference. We recommend:
- If the breaker trips twice, leave it off
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
After the repair, the system is run and checked in every mode it has. We check it’s cooling or heating as it should and that the fault hasn’t left anything else behind and point out anything else we spotted.
Book an annual service. A service cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small faults early and that is normally simpler than a breakdown repair.
Let and managed properties
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
Whether it’s one property or many, the approach is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
How we price air conditioning repair
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but every job is priced on its own. What we look at:
- The brand, model and parts involved
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
To help us quote: the address and the type of property, a few photos, the make and model of any existing system and any symptoms, from error codes to drips. Once you have those, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Air conditioning repair in Drayton: the local picture
Drayton is about 54 miles from central London, well within the area we cover from our base in East Grinstead. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 4 within half a mile of the centre, such as Drayton House (grade II). That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts. Schools such as East Meon Church of England Controlled Primary School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.
