Things to check in Lowestoft
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
Working hours
Most Lowestoft 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).
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.
