About our air conditioning repair in Hungerford
A sealed system shouldn’t lose refrigerant, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge and write it up in the F-Gas records. The work covers ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are a system that keeps cutting out and a unit that has lost refrigerant.
We plan the trip to Hungerford so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Hungerford: your questions answered
Can you do air conditioning repair in Hungerford?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Hungerford is part of that. To start, ring 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few pictures.
Do you cover Hungerford for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Hungerford. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
What accreditations do you have?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Common problems we fix in Hungerford
An error code is the unit’s own diagnosis, in shorthand. Codes differ by brand, and one code can cover several faults, so we read the code and then test to confirm. Common causes include sensors, wiring between the units and the circuit boards.
Look out for these signs:
- Air conditioning running but not cooling
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- A system that keeps cutting out
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
- Whether extra work needs your approval first
- How VAT is shown, and which rate applies
What the work involves, system by system
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Any leak we find and repair is recorded, and the operator keeps the records.
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Drains block with dirt and growth, pipes get kinked and pumps fail, and a unit that isn’t level can spill water too.
What happens on the day
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. A few pictures help us make the most of a visit to Hungerford.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

Related advice
Before you call an engineer
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
