Air conditioning repair in Finchampstead, done properly
Refrigerant doesn’t get used up, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge and write it up in the F-Gas records. If the problem is water dripping from the indoor unit and air conditioning running but not cooling, we can help.
A visit to Finchampstead is planned so we can typically finish in one go, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Finchampstead
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed-price quote.
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’ll keep everyone informed.
How the visit works
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. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Finchampstead can be planned properly.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know where the consumer unit is

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Finchampstead
Can you do air conditioning repair in Finchampstead?
Yes, Finchampstead is within the area we cover. Just call 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk with a few details.
Do you cover smaller places like Finchampstead?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
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 that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Turn it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
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. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. You get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
System by system
Fans and compressors
Fans are the moving parts most likely to wear, and the first sign is often noise or weak airflow. A worn fan motor can typically be replaced where the parts are available.
Multi-split systems
On a multi-split, one outdoor unit serves several indoor units, so a fault outside can affect every room, while a fault inside may affect only one. It tells us where to look first.
What air conditioning won’t do
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
- No power to the building at all
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749 or email us and we will tell you honestly.
