Wye Valley Air Conditioning

Service Overview

Our emergency call-out service

When an air conditioning or cellar cooling system breaks down, you need it fixed. We offer emergency call-outs and breakdown repairs for homes and businesses across Hereford and Herefordshire.

Our emergency service runs during our working hours: Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm and Saturday 8am to 12pm. We do not offer out-of-hours cover.

Typical emergencies include a system that has stopped completely, a unit leaking water onto floors or stock, a cellar cooler that's failed before a busy weekend, or a server room or office overheating.

Breakdowns often involve refrigerant or electrical faults, which should only be handled by trained engineers. We are F-Gas and REFCOM registered.

Why It Matters

Why you shouldn't wait on a breakdown

A water leak can damage ceilings, walls, flooring and stock within hours.

Running a faulty system can turn a small repair into a major one. A struggling compressor, for example, can fail completely if the underlying problem isn't fixed.

For businesses, a breakdown means uncomfortable staff and customers, lost stock in a warm cellar, or equipment at risk in hot rooms.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Keeping a leaking or noisy system running
  • Repeatedly resetting the unit without finding the cause
  • Attempting DIY repairs on refrigerant or electrics
  • Leaving servicing too long, which makes breakdowns more likely
  • Calling someone who isn't F-Gas registered

In Detail

Common breakdowns and what to do

Here's what to do while you wait, and what we're likely to look at.

System won't turn on

Check the controller batteries and that the power supply hasn't tripped. If it still won't start, call us.

Water leaking

Switch the unit off and place a towel or container underneath. Usually a blocked drain or failed pump.

Blowing warm air

Often low refrigerant from a leak, a failed fan or a sensor fault. Don't keep running it at full power.

Cellar cooler failed

Keep the cellar door closed and call us during working hours.

Commercial breakdowns

We can provide RAMS for commercial work and hold public liability and employers' liability insurance.
