Aircon specialist east surrey? |
|
Given the high temperatures over the weekend, we just about noticed that the aircon wasn't working too well! A test at Kwik Fit this morning reveals there's a leak in the system somewhere.
Anyone got any recommendations as to the best place near Woking to have this sorted out before summer kicks in properly?

I pass a place on the way to Farnborough (Opposite Fleet Pond) that does window tinting and AC maintenance.
Guess that may be a little far from Woking tho. D4 HSE - Aintree Green
D4 Orkney my13 - gone
Stornaway D4. Gone, Didn't like it at all
D3 silver manual. Loved my first LR

Many thanks; looks like the best will be the one in your link, Neil, as it's only a couple of miles away. Cheers

Had the chap around today who diagnosed a faulty condensor, so I'll be on the phone to TLO in the morning.
As an aside, he reckons that the claims by Kwik Fit etc that aircon gasses need regular recharging are total bullocks. The gasses will not need attention or 'recharging' for over 14 years, and to back this up he pointed to the fact that we don't regass our fridges...
Anyway, he reckons the LR condensor isn't expensive compared to other makes. Not sure how much it'll cost in labour, though, I'll update as and when the pain is over....

Just had the aircon fixed and re-gassed; had a new condensor (supplied by TLO) fitted by Gary from Autoairconditioning, fully re-gassed and tested for £130 incl VAT. A recomendation from me for anyone needing his services in the Surrey/Hants area.
Got it fixed just in time for the warmer weather
