Points to plan for in Farnworth
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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Farnworth 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.
Switch it off
If water is coming through a ceiling or the unit is tripping, switch it off at the isolator until it is checked.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Farnworth are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
