About our air conditioning repair in Hare Hatch
We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: find the cause, put it right and check it’s healthy before we leave. Guessing is expensive, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. Typical jobs include frost on the pipework and a system that keeps cutting out, on multi-split systems, wall-mounted split systems and heat pumps.
Around Hare Hatch, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. Describe the fault and send a photo of the unit’s label so we can plan the visit.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

When air con fails in Hare Hatch
Central Hare Hatch is inside a conservation area. About 10 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Hare Hatch, Hill House (grade II) among them. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 73% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller. If a system fails at a school such as Robert Piggott CofE Infant School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

Common questions in Hare Hatch
Is Hare Hatch within the area you cover?
Yes. Hare Hatch is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do you cover Hare Hatch for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Hare Hatch 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.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
In most cases, it’s the condensate system: a blockage, a kink or a pump that has stopped. Turn the system off to stop the water and give us a call.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Send us a photo of the display with the make and model, and we’ll diagnose the fault on site.
How long does the visit take?
On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Larger systems naturally take longer, and the quote will say how long.
What warranty do I get?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. The law requires anyone working on equipment containing F gas to hold the right qualifications, and the company to be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us on 07833 053749 or email us.

What air conditioning repair can’t fix
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
- An old system with obsolete parts
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 can’t be used for servicing, so replacement is normally the answer)
If you’re not sure, just call 07833 053749 and we will give you a straight answer.

The process
You do not need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. Somewhere like Hare Hatch, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- Diagnosis comes first: codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Name a contact who can meet us at the agreed time
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a price
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Hare Hatch
Waiting for hot weather to see whether a fault sorts itself out rarely works. A fault ignored in spring is still there in summer, so it’s worth having it diagnosed while you can plan the repair. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
One room or a whole building, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before any work starts, and the quote sets out the VAT.
Why us?
- We reply to enquiries the same working day
- One contact for properties across the South East and London
- Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba and more
- Diagnosis first, then a fixed price
