How we handle TM44 inspections in Ayr
Check the threshold
We work out the effective rated output of the systems you control and whether they count together under the rules for your nation.
Prepare
Make, model, capacity, refrigerant and maintenance records are gathered for the assessor.
Inspect
The accredited assessor inspects the systems and controls on site.
Act on the report
You receive the report; we can quote for the recommended improvements.
What to think about in Ayr
Scotland
Regulation 17 of the Building (Scotland) Regulations requires inspection of systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more by an accredited expert, typically every three to five years depending on condition.
Roof and height work
Flat roofs, high walls and atriums need the right access equipment and edge protection. We plan towers, MEWPs or scaffold before the job, not on the day.
Not an F-gas check
A TM44 inspection is about energy efficiency. It does not replace F-gas leak checks or servicing.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Ayr 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.
Typical premises in Ayr
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
Two rules matter for most businesses in Scotland: GB F-gas rules (leak checks from 5 tonnes CO2e) and the periodic energy inspection for systems of 12 kW or more.

Is a TM44 the same as an EPC?
No. An EPC rates the whole building's energy performance. A TM44 is a separate inspection of the air conditioning systems.
Do I need a TM44 inspection?
In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, yes if the air conditioning you control in a building adds up to more than 12 kW of effective rated output, at least every five years. In Scotland, systems of 12 kW or more need inspecting (separate units count together only where centrally controlled), at intervals set by the accredited expert.
