Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Red Rice
Across Red Rice, 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. Common call-outs are for rattling, buzzing or grinding noises and an error code or flashing light on the unit, across ducted systems, heat pumps and multi-split systems.
A visit to Red Rice is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Which brands do you work with?

Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.

Keeping the system healthy
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
Where a repair needs parts, we explain what’s been ordered and agree the return visit with you. We don’t promise dates we can’t control, so we keep you posted.
Clean the filters regularly. Blocked filters cut airflow, which can lead to poor cooling, ice on the coil and drips and the manual shows how to clean them.
Leave it or put it right?
If the system may still be under the manufacturer’s warranty, report the fault early. Send us the make, model and installation date, and we’ll explain how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work. An early booking makes the visit to Red Rice easier to arrange.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Why book with us
- An F-Gas certified company, as the law requires
- MCS certified heat pump installers

Owner checks or an engineer?
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are usually the one part owners can clean where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.
