About our air conditioning repair in Dungeness

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. It doesn’t matter who installed it and the make and model help us prepare. If the problem is poor airflow even with clean filters and ice on the pipework or the coil, we can sort it out.

Around Dungeness, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. A photo of the unit’s label and a description of the fault help us plan.

Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Dungeness.

  1. It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
  2. We diagnose on site, checking the codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant pressures.
  3. You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
  4. The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
  5. We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

FAQs for Dungeness

Does sea air affect air conditioning in Dungeness?

It can, as Dungeness is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. Corrosion on the outdoor unit is one of the things we check when we diagnose a fault.

Will you come out to Dungeness?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

Will you make a mess?

Protection goes down first: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.

Do you offer an emergency repair service?

Yes, day and night. Emergencies include water coming through a ceiling or a critical room overheating, and we’ll advise on what to do right away. The number is 07833 053749.

Why is my air conditioning leaking water?

Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice on the coil from low airflow or low refrigerant can also melt and drip. Turn it off and call 07833 053749 or use the quote form.

How quickly will you reply?

You will hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.

When it’s something else

Air conditioning repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:

  • A discontinued model with no parts available
  • A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
  • Heat gains the system was never designed for

If you’re not sure, just ring 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What the work covers

  • Wall-mounted split systems
  • Multi-split systems

Air conditioning repair around Dungeness

Dungeness is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal outdoor units can suffer from corroded coils and terminals, which can lead to poor cooling or trips. Dungeness’s centre falls inside the Dungeness Conservation Area. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. Census 2021 figures found about 77% 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.

A unit that keeps tripping or showing the same code is worth a proper diagnosis. Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller.

Different systems, different jobs

Fans and compressors

Fan motors and bearings wear over time, often starting with a noise or weaker airflow. Indoor and outdoor fan motors can normally be replaced where the parts are available.

Refrigerant leaks

Topping up without finding the leak only delays the next breakdown and the gas simply leaks out again. That’s why we repair the leak first.

Aftercare tips

After the visit, a few habits help:

  • Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
  • If there’s ice on the pipes, switch off and let it melt
  • Leave space around the outdoor unit

Once the fault is fixed, we test the system in operation. We check it’s cooling or heating as it should and that the fault hasn’t left anything else behind, and we tell you about anything we noticed.

Do not 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 catching it early keeps the repair simpler.

A customer’s words

“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.”
