Diagnosis begins with a brief interview with the client about when the problem started, how it manifests, and if anything unusual happened beforehand (storm, equipment moved, impact). This is followed by a visual inspection for oil stains indicating leaks, visible mechanical damage, or accumulated dirt. Then, electrical measurements and refrigerant analysis with pressure gauges. Once the cause is identified, a fixed quote for the repair is provided, compared with the cost of new equipment if the fault is major. We arrive with a complete set of instruments. Pressure gauges, contact and infrared thermometers, electronic gas leak detector, multimeter, and clamp meter for electrical measurements. We also bring brand-specific diagnostic software to read error codes stored in the control board.

Commercial installations above a certain power rating (typically 70 kW thermal) require industrial registration and an engineer-signed project. For medium-sized premises below this threshold, a certificate signed by an authorised installer is sufficient. In all cases, equipment must have CE marking and comply with European efficiency directives. The F-Gas Regulation also applies, mandating registration of gas charges exceeding certain kilogram limits. For hospitality businesses, obtaining an operating license may require an air conditioning certificate from the installer. When working with a new establishment undergoing the licensing process, we coordinate directly with the municipal technician to ensure the air conditioning paperwork is ready before the final inspection. The recharge itself takes 30-45 minutes. But first, the leak must be located and repaired. Without repair, the gas will escape just as quickly and it's illegal.

Common components (remote controls, capacitors, sensors) yes. Electronic boards and compressors are ordered and arrive in 2-7 days depending on the brand and model. Mitsubishi, Daikin, LG, Toshiba, Samsung, Panasonic, Fujitsu, Hitachi, Hisense, and others. For official warranty, we direct you to the authorised service centre for the brand. For premium equipment from recognised brands (Mitsubishi, Daikin, LG) that are 10-12 years old, repair usually still makes sense because the overall quality justifies extending its lifespan. For basic equipment that is 7-8 years old, replacement is almost always the sensible decision.

The price for a gas recharge in Bellvitge typically ranges between €126 and €1602. The final amount depends on the property's condition, materials used, and labour time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. As a general rule, if the repair exceeds 60% of the cost of an equivalent new unit, it's not worth it. This is because repairing an expensive component leaves the rest of the unit at its actual age. Other components will likely start failing soon. Replacing the compressor on a nine-year-old unit for a significant amount, knowing the electronics and fans are also ageing, is generally a poor investment. Both. We repair whenever the repair makes economic sense. If it exceeds 60% of the price of new equipment, we will tell you and you decide.
