About our air conditioning repair in Lenham
Wondering whether the fault is something simple? A quick check of the filter, settings and remote can rule out the simple causes, then phone 07833 053749 or send an email if the problem is still there. You’ll hear back from us the same working day. If the problem is frost on the pipework and new noises from the system, we can sort it out.
For a repair near Lenham, we bring the common parts and tools for the make you have, and if a part has to be ordered, we tell you the price before we fit it.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own 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.

When it’s something else
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning repair won’t do:
- An old system with obsolete parts
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will say what we think before booking.

What happens on the day
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your pictures or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. From there, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. In a place like Lenham, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- Once you are happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Why deal with it now?
Faults do not fix themselves. A fault ignored in spring is still there in summer, so it’s worth having it diagnosed while you can plan the repair. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
What you pay depends on the type of system and how many units are involved, how easy the units are to reach and the parts and time the job needs. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Why book with us
- Electrical work covered by our NICEIC approval
- F-Gas company certification
- Diagnosis first, then a fixed price
- Fixed-price quotes after a survey or pictures

Questions from Lenham
Will you come out to Lenham?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Lenham?
Yes. Lenham is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
It typically points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. A clogged filter, a fan problem or a leak are typical. Switch the system off, let it thaw and phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
Common causes are a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that can’t breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Start by checking the filter and the mode, and if that doesn’t fix it, ring us on 07833 053749 or email us.
When will I hear back?
The same working day. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Why is my air conditioning leaking water?
Usually a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that isn’t level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Switch the unit off and call us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 cannot be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak normally means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
