Old Alresford: your questions answered
Do you cover Old Alresford for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Old Alresford is within the area we cover. To start, phone 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few photos.
Do you cover Old Alresford for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Old Alresford. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
Most of the time, we recommend replacement. R22 cannot be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so we will quote for a modern replacement and explain why.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. We read any fault code and test the system to find which, then give you a fixed price to fix it.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Old Alresford and across Hampshire. Let us know who the records should go to.
Air conditioning repair in Old Alresford, done properly
A symptom is only a clue: warm air, drips and error codes can each have several causes. A unit blowing warm air might have a blocked filter, a failed sensor, a fault on the circuit board or a refrigerant leak, so we diagnose before we repair. The work covers ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about rattling, buzzing or grinding noises and a suspected refrigerant leak.
Outdoor units in a place like Old Alresford can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
How the job changes from property to property
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, and the operator keeps the records.
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it before the system is repaired, tested and recharged.
How it works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Seeing the property in pictures first means the trip to Old Alresford can be planned properly.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Why it’s worth doing now in Old Alresford
If your air conditioning in Old Alresford has developed a fault, it’s worth booking a diagnosis now. It takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive, and the repair is priced before anything else happens, with a 24/7 line for emergencies. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Small problems, from blocked filters to slow leaks, tend to get worse, and a system working harder than it should costs more to run. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 07833 053749 or email us for straight advice and a fixed price.

What a repair looks like in Old Alresford
About 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it. Upton House, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 17 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Old Alresford’s centre. If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit.
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us. If a system fails at a school such as Perins School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
