Aircon repairs in Cape Town: same-day fault finding
A warm room, a leak, a strange noise. We find the actual fault before we touch anything, and quote it before we fix it.
Diagnosis
One symptom can have many causes
A unit that is not cooling could be low on gas, or it could have a failed capacitor. A leak could be a blocked drain or a cracked tray. We find the actual fault before we fix anything.
- 1Check the unit before any repair
- 2Quote before we start work
- 3No regas unless it is actually needed
Problems
What's wrong with your aircon?
These are the calls we get most often. If your fault isn't listed, tell us anyway. Between the four of us on the team, we've seen most of what a Cape Town aircon can do wrong.
Assessment
What we check before any repair
We look at the whole system, not just the symptom you called about. Strain in one part often shows up as a fault somewhere else.
Refrigerant levels and system pressure
We check the gas charge and pressure to find leaks or low refrigerant.
