Air conditioning repair in Upper Common, done properly
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. The work covers heat pumps, multi-split systems and VRF systems, and common reasons people get in touch are a suspected refrigerant leak and a flashing light and a system that won’t run.
Around Upper Common, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. File them with the system’s paperwork, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

How the job changes from property to property
Circuit boards and sensors
Circuit boards and temperature sensors control how the system runs. A failed sensor can make a unit stop, run oddly or show an error code, and boards can fail after a power surge or with age.
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.

When air con fails in Upper Common
Historic England lists about 6 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Upper Common, including Manor Farmhouse (grade II*). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. VOA council tax data show about 38% of homes in the Upper Common area were built in 2000 or later, and the last census (2021) found about 70% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller. Many breakdowns start small, with a drip, a smell or a unit that takes longer to cool.

Related advice
What affects the cost of air conditioning repair
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The size of the job
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- The pipe route between the units
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Any previous service or F-Gas records
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- The outdoor side of the property, including any roof or flat area
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, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
Safe owner checks
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
A customer’s words
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
