Before you book in Balerno

Legal leak checks

Systems at or above 5 tonnes CO2e need checks at least every 12 months; 50 tonnes and above, every 6 months (longer intervals apply where automatic leak detection is fitted).

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.

Record keeping

Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.

Conservation areas

Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Balerno are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
