Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Upper Burgate
A sealed system shouldn’t lose refrigerant, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Topping up without a repair only delays the next breakdown. We locate the leak, repair it, test, evacuate and recharge and write it up in the F-Gas records. The work covers ducted systems, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes, and common reasons people get in touch are ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a system that keeps cutting out.
Around Upper Burgate, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Signs you need air conditioning repair in Upper Burgate
Most indoor unit leaks come back to the condensate. A blocked or kinked drain, a failed pump or a unit that is not level are the usual causes, and ice on the coil that melts can drip too.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A system that needs topping up again
- Water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling
- An error code or flashing light on the unit
For a school like The Burgate School and Sixth Form, urgent repairs can be booked right away and bigger work in the holidays.

What the work involves, system by system
Multi-split systems
Refrigerant leaks on a multi-split can be anywhere on several pipe runs. Each run is checked, then repair, pressure test and recharge.
VRF systems
VRF systems often hold enough refrigerant to need regular F-gas leak checks. Any leak we find and repair is recorded for the operator’s records.

Each visit follows the same order: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, check the system and talk you through it. On site, the work takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Upper Burgate so we arrive with what’s needed.

Questions from Upper Burgate
Is Upper Burgate within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Upper Burgate?
Upper Burgate is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning and we explain the terms for your brand on the quote.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. We read any fault code and test the system to find which, then give you a fixed price to fix it.
How much does an air conditioning repair cost?
Diagnosis call-outs start from £75 + VAT. Once we know the cause, you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead. The cost depends on the fault, the parts and access to the units.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and phone 07833 053749 or email us.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
