The visit, step by step

  1. Asset survey

    We list every unit and its refrigerant data, and agree the right frequency for each.

  2. Agree the schedule

    Visits are booked around your opening hours and sites.

  3. Maintain and record

    Each visit is reported, with leak-check records kept for at least five years.

  4. Review

    Once a year we review condition, running problems and any replacement planning.

Local points to consider

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 Hornchurch 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.

Record keeping

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

Leased premises

If your Hornchurch premises are leased, the landlord's written consent is usually needed for external units, wall penetrations and roof access. We provide drawings and data sheets for the request.

Types of premises we cover in Hornchurch

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).
