Air conditioning repair in Faygate

When to call us in Faygate

A unit that runs but does not cool has a few usual suspects: dirty filters, wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Testing tells us which.

It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:

  • A fault code on the display
  • Rattling, buzzing or grinding noises
  • A unit that barely blows any air

If a system fails at a school such as Holy Trinity CofE Secondary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

What your quote should include

  • Whether extra work needs your approval first
  • Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
  • Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it

Our hiring checklist

How we handle air conditioning repair in Faygate

Think of it as a doctor’s appointment for your air conditioning: find the cause, put it right and check it’s healthy before we leave. Guessing is expensive, and topping up refrigerant on a system with a blocked filter fixes nothing. If you’re dealing with water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling and rattling, buzzing or grinding noises, we can sort it out.

Outdoor units in a place like Faygate can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.

AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

  • An old system with obsolete parts
  • Cooling that falls short because the system is too small

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

  • Ceiling cassettes

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: 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.

Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the records to whoever needs them.

Faygate: your questions answered

Will you come out to Faygate?

Yes. Faygate is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

Do you cover Faygate for emergency air conditioning repairs?

Faygate is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.

Do you provide F-Gas records?

Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

Why is my air conditioning icing up?

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 fill in the contact form.

Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?

R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 can’t be used for servicing. A fault that doesn’t involve the refrigerant may still be repairable, depending on parts, but a leak usually makes replacement the sensible route. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.

My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?

An error code points us in the right direction, but testing confirms the cause. Write down the code and turn the unit off if it has stopped, and give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it and the fixed price is built on it.

What happens on the day

Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and explain it all to you. On site, the work takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. For a place like Faygate, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
  2. On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
  3. We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.
  4. With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
  5. Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.

How to prepare

  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
  • Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process

How to get a quote

Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.

Advice

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.”
