Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Northampton are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Record keeping
Operators must keep F-gas records for equipment above the threshold. A contract keeps these complete.
Leased premises
If your Northampton 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.
