How it works in Peterhead
Survey and loads
We calculate loads zone by zone and check roof or plant space, risers and ceiling voids. For sites in Peterhead we confirm access and parking beforehand.
System design
Outdoor units, indoor units, branch boxes and pipe sizes are designed together, including the refrigerant charge and any leak detection.
Phased first fix
Pipework and controls cabling go in floor by floor, often out of hours in occupied buildings.
Pressure test and charge
The network is pressure tested, evacuated and charged with the calculated refrigerant quantity.
Commissioning
Each indoor unit is commissioned and the controls set up, with as-fitted drawings and F-gas records handed over.
Before you book in Peterhead
Leak checks
Larger VRF systems usually exceed 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent, so they need at least annual F-gas leak checks — more often at 50 tonnes and above.
Access and parking
Town-centre jobs in Peterhead 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.
Refrigerant in occupied rooms
Because one network carries a large refrigerant charge, small rooms on the system are checked against the safety limits in BS EN 378 and may need leak detection.
Working hours
Most Peterhead businesses prefer noisy work outside trading hours. Early starts, evenings and weekends can be arranged and are priced up front.
Premises we work in around Peterhead
- Offices: zoned cooling and heating for open-plan floors, meeting rooms and comms rooms.
- Hotels and hospitality: quiet bedroom units, public-area cooling and heat recovery for hotels.
Compliance in Scotland: refrigerant work falls under GB F-gas rules, and systems with an effective output of 12 kW or more need a periodic energy inspection (often called TM44).
