Before you book in Edmonton
Re-use
Equipment that is still serviceable can sometimes be relocated; ask us to assess it.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Edmonton are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Legal recovery
Recovery of F-gas refrigerant must be done by certified engineers; venting is an offence.
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.
