TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
"Aircon stopped cooling on a Friday afternoon. Called Aircon-Fix and they had a technician on site within two hours. Turned out to be a failed run capacitor. They replaced it and the system was back to full cooling before evening."
Lisa N.
Southern Suburbs
"Indoor unit was leaking water down the wall. The technician found a blocked drain line and a cracked condensate tray. Both were sorted on the same visit. Thorough diagnosis and they didn't just patch it."
Ryan K.
Cape Town CBD
"Ducted system was tripping the DB board every time it started. Aircon-Fix traced it to a short in the outdoor unit wiring. Repaired the fault and tested the full circuit before leaving. No more trips."
Thandi W.
Paarl
"Split system was blowing warm air only. Technician checked the refrigerant pressure, found a slow leak on the flare joint, repaired it, and recharged the system. Cooling properly again within the hour."
Michael G.
Stellenbosch
"Outdoor fan had seized completely. Aircon-Fix sourced a replacement motor, fitted it the next morning, and tested the full system under load. Honest pricing and they quoted exactly what it cost."
Pieter J.
Somerset West
"Our office aircon was making a grinding noise and switching itself off. Turned out to be a worn compressor bearing. They explained the issue clearly, gave us options, and completed the repair the same week."

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my aircon not cooling?
If your aircon is not cooling or your air conditioner is not cooling properly, common causes include low refrigerant, compressor failure, blocked filters, or electrical faults. We perform a full fault diagnosis to confirm the issue and complete the aircon repair.
My aircon is not cold. What could be wrong?
If your aircon is not cold, the system may be low on refrigerant, have a gas leak, or the compressor may not be functioning. We check refrigerant levels, test for leaks, and inspect the compressor to restore proper cooling.
My AC is not working at all. Can you help?
If your ac is not working, the fault could be electrical. Common causes include a tripped breaker, blown fuse, faulty PCB, or failed compressor. We diagnose the root cause and carry out the air conditioner repair on site.
Why is my aircon leaking water?
Aircon leaking water is often caused by a blocked drain line, cracked condensate tray, or frozen evaporator coil. We clear the blockage and repair the cause to stop the leak permanently.
Do you provide same-day repair?
Yes. We offer same day aircon repair across Cape Town. For urgent faults, contact us directly and we will prioritise your booking for the earliest available slot.
My aircon is not turning on. What should I do?
If your aircon is not turning on, check the power supply and remote batteries first. If those are fine, the fault may be a blown fuse, tripped breaker, faulty PCB, or failed compressor. We diagnose aircon not turning on faults and complete the repair on site.
Do you do aircon compressor repair?
Yes. Aircon compressor repair is one of our core services. We diagnose compressor faults including seized compressors, electrical failures, and overheating. If repairable, we fix it on site. If replacement is needed, we quote accordingly.
Do you fix aircon gas leaks?
Yes. Aircon gas leak repair starts with a nitrogen pressure test to locate the leak. We then braze or replace the faulty joint, vacuum the system, and recharge with the correct refrigerant to manufacturer specification.
Do you regas air conditioners?
Yes, refrigerant recharge is performed when low gas levels are confirmed after pressure testing.
Why is my aircon making noise?
An aircon making noise can indicate a loose fan blade, worn bearing, failing compressor, or debris in the outdoor unit. We inspect and repair the source of the noise.
Why is my aircon tripping the power?
Aircon tripping power is typically caused by a short circuit, faulty capacitor, compressor failure, or overloaded circuit. We diagnose the electrical fault and repair it safely.
My aircon fan is not working. Can you fix it?
Yes. If your aircon fan is not working, the cause is usually a failed fan motor, faulty capacitor, or wiring issue. We replace the faulty component and restore airflow.
Do you offer emergency or 24 hour aircon repair?
We offer same-day aircon repair where scheduling allows. For emergency aircon repair requests, contact us directly and we will prioritise your booking.
Why is my aircon blowing warm air?
An air conditioner blowing warm air is commonly caused by low refrigerant, a faulty compressor, or a blocked condenser. We diagnose the exact cause and complete the air conditioning repair.
