Common questions
My Midea unit heats but will not cool. What is wrong in Houghton Estate?
That points to the four-way reversing valve sticking or its solenoid coil failing. It can often be freed and the coil replaced without opening the sealed system.
Do you charge a callout fee?
A standard callout and diagnostic fee applies and is quoted upfront. It is credited against the repair when you accept the quote.
Do you top up gas without finding the leak?
No. A weighed charge into a leaking system is money out the window, so the leak is found and repaired first, then the system is evacuated and charged to the plated weight.
What does an annual service contract include?
Scheduled visits, priority response between visits, a written condition report per unit and fixed labour rates for the contract year.
