Points to plan for in Wallsend
R22
Since 1 January 2015, R22 systems cannot be maintained using virgin or recycled R22. If one leaks, the practical fix is usually 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.
Pipe re-use
Re-use depends on pipe size, condition, cleanliness and the new refrigerant. We test before relying on it.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Wallsend are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
