What owners can safely do
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and call 07833 053749 or email us.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean 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. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
How we handle air conditioning repair in Old Warren
We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: find the cause, put it right and check it’s healthy before we leave. Guesswork costs money, and topping up refrigerant on a system with a blocked filter fixes nothing. If you’re dealing with ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a suspected refrigerant leak, we can help.
Outdoor units in a place like Old Warren can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Heat gains the system was never designed for
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 can’t be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
If you’re not sure, just phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. A few tips:
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Check the filter, the mode and the set temperature before calling us
If parts are needed, we tell you what’s on order and book the return visit with you. We don’t promise dates we can’t control and we’ll keep you updated.
Sensible use helps. Choose the right mode and a moderate set temperature, and keep doors and windows closed while it runs and the system does not have to work as hard.
The process
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. We plan the trip to Old Warren around you.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- We diagnose on site, checking the codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant pressures.
- You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Mention any roof access, ladders or high-level work

Historic England lists about 3 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Old Warren, including Countess of Huntingdon's Chapel (grade II*). Day-to-day work on an existing system is not affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be.
