Moreton questions
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Moreton?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Moreton. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Is Moreton within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
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 can tell you which band your system falls into.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Servicing with new R22 is not allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a leak typically makes replacement the sensible route. We’ll set out the options and quote for a replacement where it makes sense.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
Air conditioning repair in Moreton, 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, then record it in the F-Gas records. If you are dealing with a unit that barely blows any air and a suspected refrigerant leak, we can sort it out.
Outdoor units in a place like Moreton can be near hedges and fields, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly:
- Check the settings and the remote’s batteries first
- Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
- Have the system serviced once a year
Keep the filters clean and the outdoor unit clear after the repair: clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should. An annual service is the best way to catch the next fault before it stops the system.
Use the system sensibly. Choose the right mode and a moderate set temperature, and keep doors and windows closed while it runs, so it isn’t running flat out all day.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. The work itself takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Moreton can be planned properly.
- You tell us the symptoms, the make and any error code.
- The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- 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 units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
How to get a quote
Quotes do not take long. Call or email with a few details and we’ll come back to you the same working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits you.

When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is normally the answer)
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Heat pumps
- Wall-mounted split systems
- VRF systems
- Ducted systems
- Multi-split systems
- Ceiling cassettes
Signs you need air conditioning repair in Moreton
Some faults stop the unit completely: fan motors, boards, interconnecting cables and tripped breakers. A breaker that trips a second time should be left off until an engineer has looked at it.
It’s time to call us if you’re dealing with:
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
Questions to ask before booking
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
