Local points to consider
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Southall are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
R22
Since 1 January 2015, R22 systems cannot be maintained using virgin or recycled R22. If one leaks, the practical fix is usually replacement.
Leased premises
If your Southall 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.

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).
