What to think about in Chatham
England and Wales
Under the Energy Performance of Buildings (England and Wales) Regulations 2012, systems over 12 kW need inspecting at least every five years by an accredited assessor, with the report lodged on the national register. Local Trading Standards enforce it, with a £300 penalty for not having a valid report.
Working hours
Most Chatham businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
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 Chatham are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
