Your questions about air conditioning repair in Sellindge
Can you do air conditioning repair in Sellindge?
We do: Sellindge falls inside our working area. Just phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few details.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Sellindge?
Sellindge is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
Common causes are a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that can’t breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Check the filter and the settings first, then call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk if it’s still not cooling.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.
What causes ice on the indoor coil?
It normally points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. Blocked filters, a failing fan or a leak are the common causes. Turn it off, let the ice melt and call us on 07833 053749 or email us.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. Keep them with the manual and the warranty documents.
Air conditioning repair in Sellindge
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it and the make and model help us prepare. If you are dealing with a fault code on the display and rattling, buzzing or grinding noises, we can sort it out.
We plan the trip to Sellindge so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. That also helps where the warranty terms ask for regular servicing.

Air conditioning repair in Sellindge: the local picture
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 40% of homes across Sellindge and its surrounding area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and the 2021 Census found about 88% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 11 within half a mile of the centre, such as Rhodes House (grade II). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.

What air conditioning won’t do
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- A unit whose parts are no longer made (replacement may be the only option)
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 can’t be used for servicing, so replacement is usually the answer)
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that is for the network operator)
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common problems we fix in Sellindge
Water dripping from an indoor unit is usually about the condensate. A blocked or kinked drain, a failed pump or a unit that isn’t level are the usual causes, while ice that forms on the coil and then melts can also cause drips.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A unit that has lost refrigerant
- A fault code on the display
- A system that won’t switch on
When cooling fails at a school like Sellindge Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.
Before you book anyone
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
- Whether the quote is a fixed price
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
Whether it’s one property or many, the approach is the same: a look at the job first, a fixed-price quote, work booked with the occupier and written records afterwards.
What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work and nothing is moved without asking you. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive, and we clear up before we go. If a lane or gateway near Sellindge is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, 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 start, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
