Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code and we will talk you through what happens next.

Questions from Little Tew
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Little Tew out of hours?
Little Tew is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Do you cover smaller places like Little Tew?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and one code can have more than one cause. Tell us the code, the make and the model, and we’ll diagnose the fault on site.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
What causes ice on the indoor coil?
It usually points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. Blocked filters, a failing fan or a leak are the common causes. Switch the system off, let it thaw and give us a ring on 07833 053749.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
Can you still repair R410A air conditioning?
Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.
Do you need air conditioning repair in Little Tew?
Most indoor unit leaks come back to the condensate. The drain may be blocked or kinked, the condensate pump may have failed, or the unit may not be level, while ice that forms on the coil and then melts can also cause drips.
The things we’re asked about most are:
- New noises from the system
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- A unit blowing warm air
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.
Questions to ask before you book
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved

Safe owner checks
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Owner care supports servicing; it does not replace it. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you can’t see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
How the visit works
You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. Somewhere like Little Tew, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Before we arrive
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
