Before you book in Elgin
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
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.
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.
