What to think about in Frome
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
Working hours
Most Frome businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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).
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Frome 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.
Typical premises in Frome
