Air conditioning repair in Frimley

Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Frimley

Age alone does not decide whether a repair is worth it. A fan fault on an older unit can be worth fixing, while a compressor failure may tip the balance. You get an honest view based on the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and the room. We’re often asked to deal with an error code or flashing light on the unit and a unit that won’t start, on ducted systems, VRF systems and heat pumps.

Shops, offices and homes in Frimley all use the same basic kit: an indoor unit, an outdoor unit and the pipes between them. The fault can be at either end, or in between, which is why we test before we replace parts.

Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

After we’ve gone

A little care keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:

  • Leave space around the outdoor unit
  • Book an annual service after the repair
  • Note any error code, or take a photo of the display

You get a note of the fault and what we did: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records and it belongs with the system’s paperwork.

Give the outdoor unit space. Anything blocking the outdoor unit makes the whole system strain and debris drawn into the fan can cause noise and damage.

When it’s something else

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning repair will not do:

  • An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
  • Heat gains the system was never designed for
  • An old system with obsolete parts

If in doubt, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Frimley

Is there an emergency air con repair line for Frimley?

Frimley 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.

Can you do air conditioning repair in Frimley?

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

Which accreditations do you hold?

F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Is it legal to repair an R410A system?

Yes. Any leak is repaired before recharging, and the work is recorded and we’ll give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.

Can I do the refrigerant work myself?

The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.

Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?

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.

Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?

It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis confirms the cause and you get a fixed price before the repair.

What the work involves, system by system

Condensate drains and pumps

The drain is cleared, the pump tested and the fall checked until the condensate runs away properly. Failed pumps are replaced and tested before we go.

Wall-mounted split systems

Wall-mounted splits are the systems we repair most often. Drains, coils, fans, sensors and leaks account for many of the faults and the diagnosis starts with the fault code and the symptoms.

What happens on the day

Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. The work takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Access to the outdoor unit position is the main thing to tell us about in Frimley.

  1. You tell us the symptoms, the make and any error code.
  2. The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
  3. You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
  4. With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
  5. The system is run and checked, and you get a written note of the repair.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Clear access to the fuse board
