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.
Legal recovery
Recovery of F-gas refrigerant must be done by certified engineers; venting is an offence.

Town-centre jobs in Bangor, County Down 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.
