What we do, step by step
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Owslebury Bottom.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Next, a plain explanation and a fixed price.
- If the repair is not worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

How we handle air conditioning repair in Owslebury Bottom
A symptom is only a clue: warm air, drips and error codes can each have several causes. Warm air can mean anything from a dirty filter to a sensor, board or refrigerant fault, which is why diagnosis comes first. The work covers ceiling cassettes, heat pumps and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are a unit blowing warm air and a suspected refrigerant leak.
Outdoor units in a place like Owslebury Bottom can be near hedges and fields, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
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, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

Common questions in Owslebury Bottom
Do you cover Owslebury Bottom for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Owslebury Bottom. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Do you cover smaller places like Owslebury Bottom?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 can’t be used for servicing. A fault that does not involve the refrigerant may still be repairable, depending on parts, but a refrigerant leak usually means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that is the answer.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Every visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
When to call us in Owslebury Bottom
When ice forms on the pipes or coil, something else is wrong. It typically points to poor airflow, such as a clogged filter or a fan problem, or to a refrigerant leak. Switch the system off and let it thaw before calling us.
Customers typically contact us when they notice something like this:
- A flashing light and a system that will not run
- A system that runs but doesn’t cool the room
- A suspected refrigerant leak
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
Before booking anyone
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- What happens if the job turns out to be different on the day
- Proof of F-Gas company certification

How the job changes from property to property
VRF systems
VRF systems often hold enough refrigerant to need regular F-gas leak checks. Any leak we find and repair is recorded for the operator’s records.
Refrigerant leaks
Topping up without finding the leak only delays the next breakdown, and it releases more refrigerant into the air. That is why we repair the leak first.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
