From enquiry to handover in Selby
Survey
We record what is installed, its condition and refrigerant, and what can be re-used.
Plan the swap
Removal and installation are scheduled to keep downtime short.
Recover and remove
Refrigerant is recovered into certified cylinders and the old units removed. In Selby we agree timings around your opening hours.
Install and commission
New units are fitted, tested and commissioned with fresh records.
What to think about in Selby
R22
Since 1 January 2015, R22 systems cannot be maintained using virgin or recycled R22. If one leaks, the practical fix is usually replacement.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Selby 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.
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
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.
Types of premises we cover in Selby
- Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Warehouses and industrial: cooling for offices, mezzanines, control rooms and temperature-sensitive areas.
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
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).

Which postcodes do you cover in Selby?

Is it illegal to use R22 air conditioning?
No — you can keep running an R22 system, but it cannot be maintained with virgin or recycled R22, so most repairs involving the refrigerant circuit are no longer possible.
What happens to the old refrigerant?
It is recovered into certified cylinders and sent for reclamation or destruction, with the paperwork kept on your records.
