How we handle air conditioning repair in Rusher's Cross
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When the cause is found, the repair is priced before anything else is done, so you can decide with the facts in front of you. If the problem is a unit that barely blows any air and a unit that has lost refrigerant, we can help.
A visit to Rusher's Cross is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly:
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
- Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it
- Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
The repair is written up: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Refrigerant work goes into the F-Gas records, so keep the note with the system’s paperwork.
Use the system sensibly. Moderate settings and a closed room mean less strain and the system does not have to work as hard.
What we do, step by step
Every visit follows the same order: agree the plan on site, protect the area, carry out the job, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Rusher's Cross.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.
How to prepare
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working

For landlords and property managers
Whether it’s one property or many, you get the same standard: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the records to whoever needs them.

Questions from Rusher's Cross
Will you come out to Rusher's Cross?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is Rusher's Cross in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Rusher's Cross is within the area we cover. Just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For simple jobs, photos and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s your proof of what was done: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
How soon will you get back to me?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
The coil gets too cold when air can’t move across it or when the refrigerant charge is low. A dirty filter is worth checking first and if that isn’t it, we will find the cause.

Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it.

That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.

Why deal with it now?
If your system uses R22, the options are narrower. R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant and new R22 can’t be used for servicing, which normally makes replacement the sensible route after a refrigerant fault. We explain why and quote for a new system if that is the right answer. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Rusher's Cross.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
