Service Overview
What our air conditioning repair service covers
When your air conditioning stops cooling, starts leaking, makes new noises or shows an error code, we find the cause and fix it. Our engineers diagnose faults on the indoor unit, outdoor unit, cooling gas pipes, drainage, electrics and controls.
We repair systems for homes and businesses across Hereford and Herefordshire, including offices, shops, bars, restaurants, gyms, medical premises and industrial units.
You need a repair when the system blows warm air in cooling mode, cannot keep up on hot days, drips water, smells musty, trips the electrics, cycles on and off, or shows a fault light. The sooner a fault is looked at, the more likely it is to be a simple fix.
Repairs involving refrigerant must be carried out by F-Gas certified engineers. We are F-Gas and REFCOM registered, so gas leaks are traced, repaired and recharged safely and legally.
Why It Matters
Why faults get worse if they are ignored
A system with a refrigerant leak loses cooling power bit by bit. As the charge drops, the compressor works harder and hotter. Left long enough, a leak that could have been found and sealed can lead to compressor failure, which is one of the most expensive parts to replace.
Water leaks are more than a nuisance. A blocked drain or failed condensate pump can soak walls, ceilings, carpets and stock. In commercial premises it can create slip hazards or damage equipment.
Electrical faults, burnt connections and failing fan motors can shut the system down completely, and often do so on the hottest days when demand is highest.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Topping up refrigerant without finding and fixing the leak
- Turning the thermostat lower to compensate for weak cooling
- Continuing to run a unit that is leaking water
- Resetting an error code repeatedly without finding the cause
- Calling an engineer who is not F-Gas registered

In Detail
Common air conditioning faults we repair
Most faults fall into a handful of categories. Knowing the symptom helps us arrive prepared.
Not cooling or heating properly
Usually caused by low refrigerant from a leak, dirty coils, a failing fan or a sensor fault. We test pressures and temperatures to find which.
Water leaking from the indoor unit
Most often a blocked condensate drain, a failed pump or an iced-up coil. We clear or replace the drain components and check why the problem started.
Noises and vibration
Rattles, squeals or buzzing can point to loose panels, worn fan bearings, debris in the outdoor unit or electrical faults.
Error codes and fault lights
Panasonic, Samsung, LG and Mitsubishi units display fault codes that point towards the problem. We are an accredited installer for all four brands and use these codes as a starting point for diagnosis.
Bad smells
Musty smells usually come from dirty coils or standing water in the drain tray. A clean and drain check normally solves it.
Domestic and commercial repairs
For homes, we focus on getting bedrooms and living spaces comfortable again. For businesses, we work around your operation and can provide RAMS for commercial sites.
