How we handle air conditioning repair in West Drayton
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it and the make and model help us prepare. The work covers multi-split systems, heat pumps and VRF systems, and people most often call us about air conditioning running but not cooling and a unit that barely blows any air.
In a managed building in West Drayton, the repair may need booking through the agent or building manager, so let us know who needs to know we’re coming. Outdoor units on roofs may need a key, a permit or an escort, and we plan for that before we arrive.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

West Drayton questions
How do I get a quote for air conditioning repair in West Drayton?
Use the quote form, or email, with a description of the job. Simple jobs can be priced from pictures; otherwise we arrange a site survey and then give you a fixed-price quote.
Is West Drayton in your area for air conditioning repair?
We do: West Drayton falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
How long does the visit take?
Your quote will say how long we expect to be there. As a guide, the work takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
The condensate drain or pump is the usual cause: a blocked pipe, a kinked hose or a failed pump. Turn the system off to stop the water and give us a call.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, usually whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
It could be a dirty filter, the wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Start by checking the filter and the mode, and if that does not fix it, phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
When it’s something else
Air conditioning repair cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t put right:
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
- No power to the building at all
If you are not sure, just ring 07833 053749 and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Multi-split systems
- Ducted systems
- Heat pumps
- VRF systems
- Ceiling cassettes
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749.
On air conditioning, the filters in the indoor unit are normally the one part owners can clean, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
What happens on the day
The first job on site is protection: dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work, and we ask before moving anything. Then the electrics are made safe and the work begins. It takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts, and we clear up before we go. Parking bays, permits and roof or balcony access are the first things we ask about in West Drayton.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
