How a visit in Liverpool works
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.
Local points to consider
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.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Liverpool 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.
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 Liverpool are more likely to need planning permission for outdoor units on visible elevations. We check with the local planning authority before work is booked.
Who we work with in Liverpool
- Schools and education: classroom cooling, ventilation and IT room cooling, installed in the holidays.
Compliance in England: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and buildings with more than 12 kW of air conditioning in total need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
