Before you book in Merseyside
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).
Working hours
Most Merseyside businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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.
Who we work with in Merseyside
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
- Healthcare and dental: clean, quiet cooling for surgeries, clinics, dental practices and care settings.
- Gyms and leisure: high-capacity cooling and fresh air for gym floors, studios and changing rooms.
In England, systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent of refrigerant or more fall under GB F-gas rules, with regular leak checks and records; buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total also need a periodic energy inspection.
