How it works
There’s very little for you to do 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. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Offington can be planned properly.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- Once you’re happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Before we arrive
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a price
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by pictures or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Related advice
Air conditioning repair in Offington, done properly
Across Offington, every repair begins with a diagnosis: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. After that, you get a plain explanation and a fixed price for the repair. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and heat pumps, and people most often call us about a system that won’t switch on and drips from the indoor unit.
Around Offington, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Rented and managed buildings
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Note any error code, or take a photo of the display
If a repair does not make sense, you’ll hear it from us, with the reasons. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that is the better answer.
Give the outdoor unit space. Leaves, plants and stored items around it restrict airflow and make the system work harder, and debris can get into the fan.
Offington questions
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Offington?
It can, as Offington is within about 2 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We look for corroded coils, fixings and connections on coastal repairs.
Will you come out to Offington?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis confirms the cause, then give you a fixed price to fix it.
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.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes, repairs and recharges on existing R410A systems remain legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy and we talk through repair against replacement for older systems.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

Offington lies within about 2 miles of the sea. On a coastal repair, we look at the outdoor unit for corrosion as well as the fault you called about. 3 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Offington. Historic England lists about 8 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Offington, including Old Brewhouse (grade II). Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be.

Common problems we fix in Offington
An error code is the unit’s own diagnosis, in shorthand. Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and the same code can have more than one cause, so we read the code and then test to confirm. Sensors, communication faults between the units and circuit boards are frequent culprits.
What we are most often called about:
- Poor airflow even with clean filters
- Frost on the pipework
- A unit blowing warm air
For a school like Thomas A Becket Junior School, urgent repairs can be booked right away and bigger work in the holidays.
