Air conditioning repair in Wix Green
Across Wix Green, every repair begins with a diagnosis: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. Then we explain what’s wrong and give you a fixed price to put it right. If you’re dealing with a noisy indoor or outdoor unit and drips from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
In a village like Wix Green, most air conditioning we repair is in homes, garden rooms and the occasional pub or village business. A photo of the unit’s label and a description of the fault help us plan.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight, and every service is written up.

What we do, step by step
Where something has to be switched off during the work, we agree it with you first so it does not catch you out. For businesses, we can normally work room by room or zone by zone. The work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Wix Green.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working

Air conditioning repairs in Wix Green: local notes
Wix Green lies within about 3 miles of the sea. On a coastal repair, we look at the outdoor unit for corrosion as well as the fault you called about. About 82% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 4 within half a mile of the centre, such as Spring Cottage (grade II). Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we’ll flag it if a replacement is needed.
A photo of the error code and the unit’s rating label helps us plan the repair. If a system fails at a school such as Wix and Wrabness Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

Different systems, different jobs
Condensate drains and pumps
The drain is cleared, the pump tested and the fall checked until the condensate runs away properly. Failed pumps are replaced and test it before we leave.
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it, then repair, pressure test and recharge.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the agreement for who looks after the system. We can quote either party, and the paperwork can go to both.
For anyone managing more than one building, we can quote and plan the work across all of them. Every address has its own paperwork, so the files stay tidy.
Questions from Wix Green
Do you cover smaller places like Wix Green?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Wix Green?
It can. Wix Green is within about 3 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. Corrosion on the outdoor unit is one of the things we check when we diagnose a fault.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning 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.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Will you make a mess?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Turn it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
From one of our customers
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
