How we handle air conditioning repair in Havant
Think of it as a doctor’s appointment for your air conditioning: diagnose the cause, treat it properly and sign it off when it’s working. Guesswork costs money, and topping up refrigerant on a system with a blocked filter fixes nothing. If you are dealing with rattling, buzzing or grinding noises and an error code or flashing light on the unit, we can sort it out.
In a town like Havant, most repair calls are for home systems that have stopped cooling, are leaking water or show an error code. Plenty of them come down to dirty filters, a blocked drain or a leak.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Common problems we fix in Havant
Leaks tend to start where pipes are joined: flare connections, brazed joints and valves, or pipework damaged or rubbed through by vibration. Coils can corrode and leak too and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.
The things we’re asked about most include:
- New noises from the system
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- Ice on the pipework or the coil
Schools such as Trosnant Infant School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.

Havant questions
Do you cover Havant for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Havant. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Is Havant in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Havant is part of that. Just phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.
Do you work on all makes?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
In most cases, it’s the condensate system: a blocked pipe, a kinked hose or a failed pump. 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 yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
How quickly will you reply?
You will hear from us the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Looking after your system
Aftercare is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it
- Clear debris away from the outdoor fan
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
After the repair, the system is run and checked in every mode it has. We confirm it’s working properly and look for anything else that needs attention, and we tell you about anything we noticed.
Small changes are worth acting on. Drips, noises, weak airflow and error codes are early warnings, and early diagnosis typically means a smaller repair.
What happens on the day
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. The visit takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Photos of an existing unit and its label help with repairs and servicing in Havant.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- Once you are happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Advice
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and ring 07833 053749.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are usually the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
