Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderator who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are usually friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge about the issues of living in Spain. I hope that you enjoy your time participating in the forums.
Please let me know if you need any further help.

Hi Guys,
I have a similar issue to Blanea, i.e. I need to service the aircon when I am in CE shortly. I would also appreciate advice on who and cost?
best regards
George

Most likely the system has lost some refrigerant, not sure why they do, but it is very common.
The answer is to have the refrigerant topped up. I don't know what the fee structure is in Spain, but I pay a callout/diagnostic fee and then a price per unit of refrigerant added. The wholesale price of refrigerant is about $22/kg but I pay anything from $70 to $200/kg installed (the higher figure is if the service company charges a low callout fee). Most likely you will need about 1kg if the system isn't large. I have no idea what the price of refrigerant is in Spain, but I would guess you're looking at around €200-€250 for a call out and refrigerant top-up.
A tell-tale sign of low refrigerant is that that pipe carrying the refrigerant from the outside unit back inside the house "ices up" on the outside of the pipe. If that is the case, do the service company a favour and turn the system off well before the technician arrives so the ice can melt, because the system can't be serviced if it is iced-up.
