Things to check in Forfar
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.
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.
Leased premises
If your Forfar 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.
Who we work with in Forfar
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
