Somerton air conditioning repair
F-Gas certified and NICEIC approved, we cover Somerton for air conditioning repair. A fixed price before any work starts, and a 24/7 emergency line.
- A flashing light and a system that won’t run
- Weak airflow from the indoor unit
- A system that won’t switch on
After we have gone
Systems last better with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have the system serviced once a year
- Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
- Stop the unit if water is coming through a ceiling
The repair is written up: 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.
Don’t 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 normally means a smaller repair.
Air conditioning repair in Somerton
Not sure whether it’s worth calling an engineer? A quick check of the filter, settings and remote can rule out the simple causes, then call 07833 053749 or email us if the problem is still there. We reply to enquiries the same working day. Typical jobs include a flashing light and a system that won’t run and a unit that barely blows any air, across wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems.
Outdoor units in a place like Somerton can be near hedges and fields, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell 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.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Somerton
Will you come out to Somerton?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Somerton?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Somerton. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
How does the warranty work?
Warranty is the manufacturer’s own, on its terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are also Checkatrade members.
How long will you be on site?
Your quote will say how long we expect to be there. As a guide, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts.
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.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
What air conditioning repair can’t fix
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
- A discontinued model with no parts available
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Somerton.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you’ll hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
How to prepare
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in

Related advice
For landlords and property managers
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.
