Points to plan for in Winsford
R22
Since 1 January 2015, R22 systems cannot be maintained using virgin or recycled R22. If one leaks, the practical fix is usually replacement.
Working hours
Most Winsford businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Disposal
Old refrigerant must be recovered by certified engineers and the units disposed of as waste electrical equipment.
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.
