What to think about in Bicester
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.
Budgeting
A fixed annual cost and early warning of units nearing end of life.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Bicester are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
