Records
Keep the recovery and waste paperwork with your F-gas records.
Leased premises
If your Newton-le-Willows premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.
Re-use
Equipment that is still serviceable can sometimes be relocated; ask us to assess it.
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.
