About our air conditioning repair in Loxford
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it, so tell us the make and model if you know it. The work covers multi-split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling.
In a London area like Loxford, a lot of the systems we repair serve flats and small offices, with outdoor units on balconies, rear walls or flat roofs. Knowing where the outdoor unit sits, and how to get to it, helps us plan the repair.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Rented and managed buildings
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor is required at least every 5 years for systems over 12 kW. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.

Questions from Loxford
Can you do air conditioning repair in Loxford?
We do: Loxford falls inside our working area. To start, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few photos.
What’s the best way to get a price for air conditioning repair in Loxford?
Start with a short message: the address, what you need and a picture or two. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
Do you offer an emergency repair service?
Yes. We have a 24/7 emergency line for urgent breakdowns. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your photos and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them and stick to the interval they set.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
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. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records for the operator’s records.
Fans and compressors
Fan motors and bearings wear over time, and the first sign is often noise or weak airflow. Indoor and outdoor fan motors can usually be replaced where the parts are available.

How it works
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. In a London area like Loxford, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.
- 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.
- You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
- The repair is carried out, and any refrigerant work is leak tested and recorded.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Before we arrive
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
