Shepway air conditioning repair
Air conditioning repair in Shepway from an F-Gas certified company, with the manufacturer’s warranty terms explained on your quote. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
- A system that keeps cutting out
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- Poor airflow even with clean filters
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the property but the landlord owns the system, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
Air conditioning repair in Shepway, done properly
Age alone does not decide whether a repair is worth it. A fan fault on an older unit can be worth fixing, while a compressor failure may tip the balance. We look at the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and how well the system suits the room, then give you an honest view. If the problem is ice on the pipework or the coil and a unit that won’t start, we can sort it out.
Outdoor units around Shepway often sit near hedges, trees and lawns, where leaves and cuttings can clog the coil and cut the cooling. That is one of the first things we check.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Keeping the system healthy
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:
- Check the filter, the mode and the set temperature before calling us
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Clear debris away from the outdoor fan
You get a note of the fault and what we did: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records and it belongs with the system’s paperwork.
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.

How it works
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Around Shepway, access is usually simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- If the repair is not worth doing, we say so and explain the options.

Preparing for the visit

- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
Advice
Shepway: your questions answered
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Shepway?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Shepway. 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 Shepway?

Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
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.
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’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Tell us the code, the make and the model and we’ll test the system to confirm the cause.
Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
There are several possible causes, from simple to serious. We read any fault code and test the system to find which and you get a fixed price before the repair.
What affects the quote in Shepway
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The condition of any existing system
Putting several jobs into one visit can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we will price it together.
Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it on the quote. To get one, ring 07833 053749 or email us.
