What to think about in West Sussex
Access
High-level units or roof plant may need towers or roof access arrangements, which we plan in advance.
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.
F-gas
Where a system is above the 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent threshold, the service visit can include the mandatory leak check.
Shared buildings
In multi-let buildings, roof space, risers and plant areas are often controlled by a managing agent. We work to their permits and method-statement requirements.
Types of premises we cover in West Sussex

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).

How often should commercial air conditioning be serviced?
At least once a year, and every three to six months for systems in kitchens, gyms, salons, dusty environments or server rooms that run 24/7.

No, but they are often done together. A leak check is a legal requirement for systems above certain refrigerant thresholds; a service is broader maintenance.
