What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Around Highcliffe, access is typically simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Before we arrive
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

Advice
How we handle air conditioning repair in Highcliffe
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. Common call-outs are for air conditioning running but not cooling and water dripping from the indoor unit, on heat pumps, ducted systems and VRF systems.
Around Highcliffe, most of our repairs are in homes, with some small businesses. What you tell us about the fault shapes the visit, so describe what it’s doing and send a photo of any error code.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Highcliffe
Is Highcliffe within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Highcliffe?
We do: Highcliffe falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Servicing with new R22 isn’t allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak typically means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that is the answer.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
How long will you be on site?
That depends on what’s involved, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. We’ll confirm it with the quote.
Before you call an engineer
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
When to call us in Highcliffe
Refrigerant leaks often start at joints: joints, valves and sections of pipe worn by vibration or damage. Corrosion on coils can also cause leaks over time, and a slow leak can go unnoticed until the system stops cooling.
Look out for these signs:
- Frost on the pipework
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
- A system that needs topping up again
If a system fails at a school such as All Saints Church of England Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
