Key points

Refrigerant and installation

Handling refrigerant is reserved for a professional authorised under the applicable regulations: an improvised installation or recharge damages the unit and releases a gas that is harmful to the environment. The outdoor unit needs a solid mount, enough airflow and attention to noise for the neighbours. Condensate drains to a proper outlet, never onto a neighbour's wall.

Electricity: regulated work

Any work on the circuit is done with the power off at the breaker, and connecting a device to the consumer unit is for a qualified professional. A protective device is never replaced with a higher-rated one to stop it tripping: that tripping protects the installation. After reassembly, a function test is carried out before closing up and switching back on.
