Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Selborne
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 replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. If you’re dealing with a system that needs topping up again and ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes, we can help.
Around Selborne, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

How the visit works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Selborne.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- 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 repair is carried out, and any refrigerant work is leak tested and recorded.
- Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.
Before we arrive
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Related advice
After we’ve gone
After the visit, a few habits help:
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Note any error code, or take a photo of the display
- Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
Where a repair isn’t worth doing, we say so, and explain why. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that is the better answer.
Do not ignore early signs. A drip, a new noise, a weaker airflow or an occasional error code is often the first sign of a fault, and early diagnosis usually means a smaller repair.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- A supply fault outside the property
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
If you’re not sure, just call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Selborne: your questions answered
Is Selborne in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Selborne is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Is Selborne within the area you cover?
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.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work and MCS certified for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
Check the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so it’s worth checking. Keep every service record either way.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what’s needed, where things go and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
An error code points us in the right direction, but it isn’t the whole answer. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, then call us on 07833 053749 or email us.
What affects the quote in Selborne
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but every job is priced on its own. The quote depends on:
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The equipment or parts the job needs
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, call 07833 053749 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed price.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we have looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To get going, ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
