Points to plan for in Berkshire
Old refrigerant
Systems still on R22 cannot legally be topped up with virgin or recycled R22. Repairs on these are limited — replacement is often the realistic option.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Berkshire often come down to access — loading restrictions, parking for the van and getting equipment onto a roof. We check this at survey and plan deliveries around it.
Refrigerant leaks
Topping up without finding the leak is a false economy and, for systems above the threshold, a breach of F-gas leak repair duties.
Working hours
Most Berkshire businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Premises we work in around Berkshire
- Pubs and bars: cooling for busy bars, function rooms and cellars, sited with neighbours in mind.
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Retail and shops: comfortable shop floors, stockrooms and entrances, even with the door open.
Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
