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.
Leased premises
If your Fleetwood 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.
Operator duty
The legal duty sits with the operator — the person or business with actual control over the equipment.
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.
