How a visit in Nailsea 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.

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 Nailsea 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.

Leased premises

If your Nailsea 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.

Types of premises we cover in Nailsea

Two rules matter for most businesses in England: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for more than 12 kW of air conditioning.
