AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Why Regular Servicing Matters
At Yorkshire Contractor Solutions, we understand that maintaining your air conditioning system is not just about comfort—it's about performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency. Regular servicing helps:
​
-
Prolong the life of your equipment
-
Improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs
-
Ensure cleaner, healthier air for occupants
-
Detect minor issues before they become costly breakdowns
-
Maintain consistent heating and cooling performance year-round
​
Servicing is especially crucial in commercial and public buildings where comfort and safety are key to day-to-day operations.
Legal Requirements (UK Compliance)
If your system contains fluorinated greenhouse gases (F-Gases)—like many split-type units—you must comply with the following under UK law:
F-Gas Regulations (EU/UK 517/2014)
Systems containing over 5 tonnes COâ‚‚ equivalent of F-Gas require:
-
A leak check at least once a year
-
Record keeping of any service, refrigerant additions, or leak repairs
-
All work must be carried out by REFCOM-certified engineers
TM44 Energy Efficiency Assessments
If your system has a combined output over 12kW, a TM44 inspection is required every 5 years. This assesses energy performance and recommends improvements.
Health & Safety at Work Act
Employers must ensure that HVAC systems are safe and do not pose a risk to employees. Poorly maintained systems can harbour bacteria, mould, and allergens.
