Points to plan for in Uckfield
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.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Uckfield are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
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.
Neighbours and noise
Outdoor units near flats — common above shops — need careful siting so noise at neighbours' windows stays low. We choose positions and quieter units with that in mind.
Premises we work in around Uckfield
