Local points to consider
Repeat failures
If a system has failed several times, we compare the cost of repair against replacement.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
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.
Leased premises
If your Shirley premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
