About our air conditioning repair in Malden Rushett
A sealed system shouldn’t lose refrigerant, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge and write it up in the F-Gas records. If you’re dealing with ice on the pipework or the coil and a unit blowing warm air, we can help.
In Malden Rushett, as across London, air conditioning works hard in hot spells, which is when weak cooling, leaks and error codes tend to appear. The error code on the display, the make and the model are the most useful things to send us.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

When air con fails in Malden Rushett
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 45% of homes in Malden Rushett and the neighbourhoods around it to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit. London repairs often depend on reaching the outdoor unit, so access details help us plan.
If a system fails at a school such as Chessington Community College, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays. The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.

System by system
VRF systems
In a VRF system, many indoor units share outdoor plant. Faults are diagnosed through the system’s own fault codes and controls, then confirmed by testing and the repair is priced before we start.
Refrigerant leaks
If the charge is low, there’s a leak somewhere. We find it, repair it, pressure test the circuit, evacuate it and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge and every step is recorded.

What we do, step by step
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. If your building in Malden Rushett has a managing agent, a concierge or sign-in rules, mention them when you book.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

- A supply fault outside the property
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
Not sure which it is? You can ring 07833 053749 and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the quote in Malden Rushett
Our prices page gives typical ranges, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- How easy the units are to reach
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins, and the quote sets out the VAT.
Before you get in touch
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The address and the type of property
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, phone us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Malden Rushett questions
Do you cover Malden Rushett for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Malden Rushett is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Malden Rushett?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Malden Rushett. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: a dated note of the work, with refrigerant details where they apply.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Malden Rushett and across Greater London. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Do you work on all makes?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. 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.
