Mapledurham questions
Do you cover Mapledurham for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Mapledurham is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Mapledurham out of hours?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Mapledurham is one of the places it covers. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. Every visit is written up, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
F-Gas certification shows a company is approved to work on equipment containing fluorinated gases, such as the refrigerant in air conditioning and heat pumps. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
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 is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Air conditioning repair in Mapledurham, done properly
A sealed system shouldn’t lose refrigerant, so a low charge means a leak somewhere. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We find and fix the leak, pressure test, evacuate and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge and write it up in the F-Gas records. The work covers VRF systems, multi-split systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about a unit that barely blows any air and a system that needs topping up again.
Around Mapledurham, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. Describe the fault and send a photo of the unit’s label so we can plan the visit.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Larger air conditioning systems in buildings need more than servicing: 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.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings across Oxfordshire. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
What happens if it’s left?
R22 systems are a different case. R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant and new R22 cannot be used for servicing, which typically makes replacement the sensible route after a refrigerant fault. We explain why and quote for a new system if that’s the right answer. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.

When to call us in Mapledurham
Error codes are the system telling you it has found a fault. Codes differ by brand, and one code can cover several faults, so we read the code and then test to confirm. Sensors, communication faults between the units and circuit boards are frequent culprits.
Customers normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- A flashing light and a system that will not run
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.
