Air conditioning repair in Farthing Green, done properly
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too and the make and model help us prepare. If the problem is ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a system that keeps cutting out, we can sort it out.
Around Farthing Green, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

What we do, step by step
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. 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 anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Farthing Green.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Before we arrive
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

What happens if it’s left?
Small faults rarely stay small. A drip can turn into a damaged ceiling, and a slow leak can leave the compressor straining and early diagnosis usually keeps the repair simpler. Booking before summer means the work in Farthing Green is done before the hot weather.
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Farthing Green
Do you cover smaller places like Farthing Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Farthing Green out of hours?
Farthing Green is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
What causes ice on the indoor coil?
It normally points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. Blocked filters, a failing fan or a leak are the common causes. Switch the system off, let it thaw and call us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
Replacement is typically the better answer. R22 can’t be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so we will quote for a modern replacement and explain why.
Are you F-Gas certified?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
What we are called out for in Farthing Green
Water dripping from an indoor unit is typically about the condensate. A blocked or kinked drain, a failed pump or a unit that is not level are the usual causes, while ice that forms on the coil and then melts can also cause drips.
Look out for any of the following:
- A system that needs topping up again
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
- A system that runs but does not cool the room
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
What your quote should include
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
What owners can safely do
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
