Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
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.
Multiple sites
One schedule and one reporting format across all your sites.
Working hours
Most North Shields businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
