Things to check in Hastings
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 Hastings are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
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).
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Premises we work in around Hastings

Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
