How we handle F-gas leak checks in Hailsham

  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.

Local points to consider

Repairs

If a leak is found it must be repaired without undue delay and re-checked within one month.

Access and parking

Town-centre jobs in Hailsham 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.

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.

Types of premises we cover in Hailsham

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
