System by system
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Any leak we find and repair is recorded for the operator’s records.
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.
How we handle air conditioning repair in Frilford
Our emergency line runs 24/7 for urgent breakdowns, from an overheating comms room to water leaking from a unit. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code and we will talk you through what happens next. The work covers ducted systems, VRF systems and multi-split systems, and common reasons people get in touch are a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and weak airflow from the indoor unit.
In a village like Frilford, most air conditioning we repair is in homes, garden rooms and the occasional pub or village business. A photo of the unit’s label and a description of the fault help us plan.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Common questions in Frilford
Do you cover smaller places like Frilford?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Frilford?
Frilford is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we’ll advise on the next step.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
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.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
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.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
Replacement is usually 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.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
The code is the system’s own clue to the fault, but testing confirms the cause. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, then call 07833 053749 or email us.

Why act early in Frilford

Ice on the pipework or the indoor coil is a symptom, not the fault. Low airflow from blocked filters or a failing fan, or low refrigerant from a leak, are the common causes. Switch the system off and let it thaw before calling us.

- Ice on the pipework or the coil
- A unit blowing warm air
