How we handle F-gas leak checks in Maidenhead

  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.

Things to check in Maidenhead

Certified engineers

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

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.

Repairs

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

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.

Premises we work in around Maidenhead

In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
