Questions from Farthing Street

Is Farthing Street in your area for air conditioning repair?

Yes, Farthing Street is within the area we cover. Just call us on 07833 053749 or email us with a few details.

Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Farthing Street out of hours?

Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Farthing Street. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.

Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?

Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and one code can have more than one cause. Send us a photo of the display with the make and model and we’ll test the system to confirm the cause.

Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?

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’ll work out which band applies to yours.

Do you work on all makes?

We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.

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.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes. You get a written record of each visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.

About our air conditioning repair in Farthing Street

Across Farthing Street, every repair begins with a diagnosis: the engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, the airflow, the condensate drain and the refrigerant pressures and temperatures. After that, you get a plain explanation and a fixed price for the repair. Typical jobs include air conditioning running but not cooling and ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes, on VRF systems, ducted systems and multi-split systems.

Air conditioning repairs in Farthing Street are often in flats, offices and shops, with outdoor units on balconies, rear walls or flat roofs. Telling us where the outdoor unit is and how we reach it saves time on the visit.

Each manufacturer sets its own warranty period. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. For any other brand, we explain the manufacturer’s terms on your quote.

Aftercare tips

To keep the system working properly:

  • If the breaker trips twice, leave it off
  • Leave space around the outdoor unit
  • Stop the unit if water is coming through a ceiling

If a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the reasons. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that is the better answer.

Use the system sensibly. Moderate settings and a closed room mean less strain, so it isn’t running flat out all day.

When air con fails in Farthing Street

London repairs often depend on reaching the outdoor unit, so access details help us plan. About 3 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Farthing Street, Farthing Street Farmhouse (grade II) among them. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.

Schools such as Downe Primary School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term. If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.

Let and managed properties

Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us

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. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.

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 us on 07833 053749 or email us.

How it works

The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. For a job in Farthing Street, tell us about parking, permits and access to the building when you get in touch.

  1. We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
  2. The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
  3. We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
  4. Once you are happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
  5. It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
  • Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
