Things to check in West Sussex

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 West Sussex 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.

Repeat failures

If a system has failed several times, we compare the cost of repair against replacement.

Roof and height work

Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.

Types of premises we cover in West Sussex

  • Restaurants and cafés: dining rooms that stay comfortable next to a hot kitchen and a busy service.
  • Salons and spas: comfortable salons and treatment rooms despite dryers, lamps and steam.
  • Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
  • Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
