Our F-Gas-registered repair specialists are trained to repair and service almost every make and model of air conditioning unit.
Common air conditioning faults
Leaks, unpleasant smells, and noisy fans are symptoms of an underperforming air con unit. Our engineers have seen almost every type of air-con breakdown, from units that won’t start to those pumping out hot air.
Common air con faults and malfunctions:
- Blocked grill
- Dirty filter
- Malfunctioning thermostat
- Leaking unit
- Electrical problems
Putting off repairing your air con can lead to a build-up of multiple problems over time. Don’t wait until you need it; book your repair now to restore your system before the temperature outside rises.

We specialise in the repair and installation of Worcester Bosch air conditioning units.

Air conditioning fitting
Enjoy VAT-free installation on air con units until 2027 with Arton. We specialise in the supply and installation of Worcester Bosch air conditioning systems, but that isn’t all. We also fit a wide selection of other air conditioning brands, from Samsung to Fujitsu, for those who want a Bosch alternative.
Our heating and cooling engineers are F-Gas registered, which is mandatory in the UK for anyone working with refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump equipment that contains fluorinated or ‘F-gas’ refrigerants.
Before you choose an air con unit, talk to the experts about the types of air conditioners available to find the right fit for your home.
Air conditioning servicing
Maintaining your air conditioning unit is just as important as servicing your boiler every year. With an annual service, you can fine-tune your AC to keep it running efficiently. If your energy bills are creeping up, it could be because your air conditioning unit needs attention.
When an AC unit is left for too long, bacteria and other allergens can build up in the filter. We’ll clean or replace the filter when we service your air conditioning unit so you can get back to enjoying clean, cool air.
The grill, fans, and thermostat are all part of our standard air con service. We also lubricate any moving parts, check refrigerant levels, and look for any blockages in airflow.
Air conditioning cover
Spread the cost of your air conditioning service by taking out air con cover from £10.00 per month with Arton. Our standard cover plan includes a full annual service, priority call-outs, and discounted repair parts.
Additionally, you can add extra appliances to your cover plan and combine it with full cover for your electrics and plumbing. Taking out cover for your whole heating system ensures you have priority access to the experts when you need them the most.
A full year of air con cover costs the same as a service, but instead of paying in one lump sum, you’re paying for it monthly AND benefiting from 365 days of cover.

Frequently asked questions
Leave it up to the professionals to answer your burning questions on air con repairs. If you can’t find the answer here, call or email our friendly team for expert help and advice.
How much does the average aircon repair cost?
Aircon repair costs vary based on what’s causing the problem, but typical repairs range from £100 to £500. Larger and more complex problems, like compressor replacements, can cost more.
When should an air conditioner unit be replaced?
Consider replacing your AC unit if it’s more than 15 years old, it frequently breaks down, or the cost to repair it is over 50% of the replacement cost.
Is it better to repair or replace an AC?
If your air conditioning unit is old and frequently breaks down then it’s time to replace it with a new model. However, if your unit is under ten years old and the cost to repair it is low then, repair is the most cost-effective option.
What is the most common part to fail on an AC unit?
The most common fault on an aircon unit is the capacitor; this helps start the compressor and fans. Fixing a capacitor is a straightforward (and relatively inexpensive) job but it’s important to have a certified engineer handle it due to the electrical risks.
Why is my AC not cooling my room anymore?
A dirty air filter, low refrigerant levels, or a faulty thermostat could all be to blame for your AC unit’s failures. Regular maintenance can help prevent these issues.
