How we handle TM44 inspections in Banbridge
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.
Before you book in Banbridge
Northern Ireland
Systems over 12 kW must be inspected by an accredited energy assessor within five years of installation and then every five years, with the report lodged on the register; the penalty is £300.
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.
Not an F-gas check
A TM44 inspection is about energy efficiency. It does not replace F-gas leak checks or servicing.
Conservation areas
Historic streets and listed buildings in and around Banbridge are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the council's planning service before work is booked.
