What to think about in Maldon
Switch it off
If water is coming through a ceiling or the unit is tripping, switch it off at the isolator until it is checked.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Maldon are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Old refrigerant
Systems still on R22 cannot legally be topped up with virgin or recycled R22. Repairs on these are limited — replacement is often the realistic option.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.

Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
Common causes are blocked filters, a dirty outdoor coil, a refrigerant leak, a failed fan or a controls fault. A diagnostic visit finds the cause.
Can you just re-gas it?
Re-gassing without finding and fixing the leak only delays the problem. We locate and repair the leak, then charge the system and record the quantity.
