How we handle air conditioning repair in Lashenden
Think of it as a doctor’s appointment for your air conditioning: find the cause, put it right and check it’s healthy before we leave. Guesswork costs money, and topping up refrigerant on a system with a blocked filter fixes nothing. If you are dealing with air conditioning running but not cooling and a suspected refrigerant leak, we can help.
Outdoor units in a place like Lashenden can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
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.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it
- If there’s ice on the pipes, switch off and let it melt
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
Once the fault is fixed, we test the system in operation. We check it’s cooling or heating as it should and that the fault hasn’t left anything else behind and point out anything else we spotted.
Filter cleaning is the simplest prevention there is. Blocked filters cut airflow, which can lead to poor cooling, ice on the coil and drips and the manual shows how to clean them.
Why deal with it now?
A struggling system costs more to run. A dirty coil, a blocked filter or a low refrigerant charge all make the system work harder for less cooling, and the extra strain can shorten the life of the compressor. Dealing with it now is normally simpler than a breakdown later.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.

Lashenden Farmhouse, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Lashenden’s centre.

Different systems, different jobs
Circuit boards and sensors
We test sensors and boards before replacing them, so you don’t pay for a part that wasn’t the problem. Parts may need ordering and we will explain any wait.
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it before the system is repaired, tested and recharged.
Your questions about air conditioning repair in Lashenden
Will you come out to Lashenden?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover Lashenden for air conditioning repair?
Yes. Lashenden is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Are you F-Gas certified?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
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.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Replacement is usually the better answer. New R22 cannot be used to service systems, and parts for older units are getting harder to find, so we will quote for a modern replacement and explain why.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
There are several possible causes, from simple to serious. We read any fault code and test the system to find which and you get a fixed price before the repair.
The process
Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Lashenden.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Next, a plain explanation and a fixed price.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
