Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and multi-split systems, and people most often call us about ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a unit that won’t start.

Why deal with it now?
If your air conditioning in Watlington has developed a fault, it’s worth booking a diagnosis now. It takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts, and you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead, and our emergency line runs 24/7. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.

- F-Gas company certification

What happens on the day
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. A few photos let us plan a visit to a place like Watlington.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- If the repair is not worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Tell us about parking and loading

When air con fails in Watlington
The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 36% of homes in Watlington and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and about 78% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book. Watlington’s centre falls inside the Watlington Conservation Area. In the mile around Watlington’s centre, 3 conservation areas have been designated. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 92 within half a mile of the centre, such as Church of St Leonard (grade II*). If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit.
Schools such as Watlington Primary School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term. The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts.

Watlington: your questions answered
Will you come out to Watlington?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.

We do: Watlington falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
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 typically means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that is the answer.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes, repairs and recharges on existing R410A systems remain legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement.
Do you offer an emergency repair service?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that cannot wait. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code, and we’ll agree the next steps with you.

Circuit boards and sensors
Boards and sensors are the system’s nervous system. Sensor faults can stop the system or confuse it, and boards can fail after a power surge or with age.
Wall-mounted split systems
Wall-mounted splits are the systems we repair most often. Typical faults include blocked drains, dirty coils and filters, failed fan motors, sensor faults and refrigerant leaks and the diagnosis starts with the fault code and the symptoms.
After we’ve gone
A little care keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Check the filter, the mode and the set temperature before calling us
- Stop the unit if water is coming through a ceiling
- Send us a photo of any code on the display
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.
Book an annual service. A service cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small faults early, which is far simpler than an emergency repair.
What a customer said
“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.”
