How we handle F-gas leak checks in Bletchley
Asset check
We record each system's refrigerant type and charge and calculate its CO2e.
Set the frequency
Each system gets the legal interval for its CO2e and any automatic leak detection.
Check
The engineer checks joints, valves, components and operating data for signs of leakage.
Record
Results are recorded and kept on your F-gas log for at least five years.
Local points to consider
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.
Operator duty
The legal duty sits with the operator — the person or business with actual control over the equipment.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Bletchley are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
