Air conditioning repair in St John Street area, done properly
Age alone does not decide whether a repair is worth it. A system with a failed fan motor may be well worth repairing, while one with a failed compressor might not be. We look at the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and how well the system suits the room, then give you an honest view. If you are dealing with ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a flashing light and a system that won’t run, we can sort it out.
In a place like St John Street area, outdoor units can be close to hedges and gardens, where leaves and cuttings can clog the coil and cut the cooling. That is one of the first things we check.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and St John Street area is part of that. To start, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email with a few pictures.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Typically a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that isn’t level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Switch the unit off and call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?
The code is the system’s own clue to the fault, but testing confirms the cause. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. Where servicing is a condition, a missed service could give the manufacturer grounds to refuse a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
How long does the work take?
On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Larger systems naturally take longer, and we will tell you what to expect.

System by system
Wall-mounted split systems
On a wall-mounted split, the indoor and outdoor units talk to each other through a control cable. Communication faults show up as error codes and testing finds whether it’s the cable, a board or a connection.
Condensate drains and pumps
We clear the drain, test the pump and check the fall, so the water goes where it should. If a pump has failed, we replace it and test it before we leave.

“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
