What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone 07833 053749.
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.
Air conditioning repair in High Cross, done properly
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it, so tell us the make and model if you know it. If you’re dealing with frost on the pipework and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room, we can help.
Outdoor units in a place like High Cross can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

When air con fails in High Cross
The 2021 Census found about 74% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 3 within half a mile of the centre, such as Wellington Cottage (grade II). If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit.
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault. If a system fails at a school such as Albourne CofE Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

How the job changes from property to property
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Blockages, kinks and failed pumps are the usual causes, and a unit that has dropped out of level can leak.
Circuit boards and sensors
We test sensors and boards before replacing them because swapping parts on a guess wastes money. Some parts need ordering from the manufacturer and we will explain any wait.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly:
- Book an annual service after the repair
- Don’t keep resetting a breaker that trips
- Check the settings and the remote’s batteries first
A returning symptom is worth reporting quickly. Describe what’s happening and any error code, and we’ll look into it.
Small changes are worth acting on. A drip, a new noise, a weaker airflow or an occasional error code is often the first sign of a fault and catching it early keeps the repair simpler.
How it works
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in High Cross.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- 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.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- Finally, a check that it’s working and a record of what we did.
Before we arrive
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them

Advice
High Cross questions
Do you cover High Cross for emergency air conditioning repairs?
High Cross 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 will advise on the next step.
Is High Cross within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?
An error code points us in the right direction, but testing confirms the cause. Write down the code and turn the unit off if it has stopped, and call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes. Any leak is repaired before recharging, and the work is recorded and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
