The process
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Somewhere like Worthy Down, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Before we arrive
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Tell us about parking and loading

Advice
Air conditioning repair in Worthy Down
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it, so tell us the make and model if you know it. If you are dealing with a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and an error code or flashing light on the unit, we can help.
Around Worthy Down, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Rule out the simple causes first: filter, mode and temperature
- Send us a photo of any code on the display
- Turn the system off if it’s dripping water
Where a repair is not worth doing, we say so, with the reasons. If replacement is the better option, we can quote for it on the same visit.
Sensible use helps. Choose the right mode and a moderate set temperature, and keep doors and windows closed while it runs, so it isn’t running flat out all day.
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do where the manufacturer’s manual explains how. 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.
How the job changes from property to property
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Any leak we find and repair is recorded, and the operator keeps the records.
Ducted and cassette systems
Ducted units and cassettes sit above the ceiling and access is part of the job. Many have condensate pumps, and pump failures are a common cause of ceiling leaks.

Worthy Down questions
Do you cover Worthy Down for emergency air conditioning repairs?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Worthy Down is one of the places it covers. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Will you come out to Worthy Down?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us in Worthy Down and across Hampshire. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Can I fit air conditioning or a heat pump myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We are happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
Ice is a symptom of low airflow or low refrigerant. Blocked filters, a failing fan or a leak are the common causes. Turn it off, let the ice melt and call us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
