Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Swanwick
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it, so tell us the make and model if you know it. We are often asked to deal with a suspected refrigerant leak and a noisy indoor or outdoor unit, across wall-mounted split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems.
Around Swanwick, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Air conditioning repairs in Swanwick: local notes
The coast is only about 3 miles from Swanwick. On a coastal repair, we look at the outdoor unit for corrosion as well as the fault you called about. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Swanwick and it takes in 3 conservation areas. Brick Kiln, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 20 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Swanwick’s centre. Day-to-day work on an existing system is not affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be. The last census (2021) found about 77% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
If your system near Bursledon station stops in a hot spell, our 24/7 line is open. For a school like Sarisbury Church of England Junior School, urgent repairs can be booked straight away and bigger work in the holidays.

What air conditioning won’t do
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
- A building problem rather than a system fault
- No power to the building at all
If you are not sure, just call us on 07833 053749 and we will give you a straight answer.
Parts of the system we cover
- Ceiling cassettes

What the work involves, system by system
VRF systems
VRF systems often hold enough refrigerant to need regular F-gas leak checks. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records for the operator’s records.
Wall-mounted split systems
The indoor and outdoor units of a split communicate through a cable. Communication faults show up as error codes, and we test the cable, the boards and the connections to find the cause.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Swanwick
Will you come out to Swanwick?
Yes. Swanwick is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Swanwick out of hours?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Swanwick. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 cannot be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak usually means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
Ice is a symptom of low airflow or low refrigerant. A clogged filter, a fan problem or a leak are typical. Switch the system off, let it thaw and ring 07833 053749 or email us.
How much does an air conditioning repair cost?
It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. You decide before any repair work starts.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
How it works
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, and that takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Somewhere like Swanwick, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- Tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and send a photo of the display if you can.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Clear access to the fuse board

Leave it or put it right?
A struggling system costs more to run. Poor airflow or low refrigerant means more running time for less effect and the extra work wears the parts faster. Booking before summer means the work in Swanwick is done before the hot weather.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk, and we will talk you through it.
