- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Rattling, buzzing or grinding noises
What we do, step by step
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. On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. A few photos let us plan a visit to a place like Kennington.
- 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.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- The repair is carried out, and any refrigerant work is leak tested and recorded.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
How to prepare
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Before you call an engineer
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
- If there’s ice on the pipes, switch off and let it melt
Once the fault is fixed, we test the system in operation. We confirm it’s working properly and look for anything else that needs attention, and we tell you about anything we noticed.
Have the system serviced once a year. A service cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small faults early and that’s typically simpler than a breakdown repair.
What a repair looks like in Kennington
Kennington’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. The Old House, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 25 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Kennington’s centre. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. About 40% of homes in the Kennington area date from 1945 to 1972, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 64% 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.
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault. If a system fails at a school such as Kennington Church of England Academy, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
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, then give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before you book, and we are happy to show ours.
How quickly will you reply?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Which accreditations do you hold?
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.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
