Old Romney: your questions answered
Is Old Romney within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Old Romney?
Yes. Old Romney is one of the places we cover. To start, ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few pictures.
Do you offer an emergency repair service?
Yes. We have a 24/7 emergency line for urgent breakdowns. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code, and we will agree the next steps with you.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes, repairs and recharges on existing R410A systems remain legal. R410A is getting scarcer and dearer to buy as the GB phase-down tightens and we talk through repair against replacement for older systems.
How long does the work take?
Your quote will say how long we expect to be there. Most of the time, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
Why is my air conditioning leaking water?
Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice on the coil from low airflow or low refrigerant can also melt and drip. Switch the unit off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us.
Air conditioning repair in Old Romney, done properly
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 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 new noises from the system and air conditioning running but not cooling, we can sort it out.
Outdoor units in a place like Old Romney can be near hedges and fields, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we are happy to talk you through them.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
What we do, step by step
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. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done. Work in Old Romney is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and many jobs can be priced from that.

What we’re called out for in Old Romney
Electrical faults can stop a system altogether: a failed fan motor, a fault on a circuit board, a damaged cable between the units or a tripped circuit. A breaker that trips a second time should be left off until an engineer has looked at it.
The things we are asked about most are:
- A unit that will not start
- Frost on the pipework
- Rattling, buzzing or grinding noises
Schools such as The Marsh Academy can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.

Air conditioning repairs in Old Romney: local notes
Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Old Romney, you reach the Old Romney Conservation Area. Church of St Clement, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 8 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Old Romney’s centre. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. The 2021 Census found about 73% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
