How a visit in Burton upon Trent works

  1. Asset check

    We record each system's refrigerant type and charge and calculate its CO2e.

  2. Set the frequency

    Each system gets the legal interval for its CO2e and any automatic leak detection.

  3. Check

    The engineer checks joints, valves, components and operating data for signs of leakage.

  4. Record

    Results are recorded and kept on your F-gas log for at least five years.

Before you book in Burton upon Trent

Operator duty

The legal duty sits with the operator — the person or business with actual control over the equipment.

Roof and height work

Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.

Certified engineers

Leak checks must be done by an engineer holding the right F-gas certification.

Working hours

Most Burton upon Trent businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.

Who we work with in Burton upon Trent
