Results are recorded and kept on your F-gas log for at least five years.
Points to plan for in Bedlington
Certified engineers
Leak checks must be done by an engineer holding the right F-gas certification.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Bedlington 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.
Repairs
If a leak is found it must be repaired without undue delay and re-checked within one month.
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.
