We arrive with a full set of instruments. Manometers for pressures, contact and infrared thermometers, electronic gas leak detector, multimeter, and clamp meter for electrical measurements. We also bring the brand-specific diagnostic application to read error codes stored on the board. Call us, message us on WhatsApp, or request your quote online — we respond in under 10 minutes during business hours. Yes, but we locate the leak first. Refilling without repairing is illegal and a temporary fix. If there's a leak, we repair it first, then refill.

The diagnosis begins with a brief interview with the client about when the problem started, how it manifests, and if anything extraordinary happened before (storm, unit moved, impact). It continues with a visual inspection for oil stains indicating leaks, visible mechanical damage, and accumulated dirt. Then, electrical measurements and refrigerant analysis with manometers. Once the cause is identified, we provide a fixed quote for the repair, compared to the cost of a new unit if the damage is extensive. Between 30 minutes and 2 hours depending on complexity. A simple fault is identified quickly. Small leaks or electronic problems may require more time. The refill itself takes 30-45 minutes. But first, the leak must be located and repaired. Without repairing, the gas escapes just as quickly, and it's illegal.

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

The price for cleaning and maintenance in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat typically ranges between €130 and €1296. The final figure depends on the property's condition, materials, and work time. We always provide a fixed quote before starting. As a general rule, if the repair cost exceeds 60 per cent of the price of an equivalent new unit, it's not worthwhile. The reason is that repairing an expensive component leaves the rest of the unit at its actual age. Other components will start to fail soon. Replacing the compressor of a nine-year-old unit for a considerable amount, knowing that the electronics and fans are also ageing, is generally a bad investment. Both. We repair whenever the repair makes economic sense. If it exceeds 60 per cent of the price of a new unit, we will inform you, and you can decide.
