F-Gas certified industrial service
Industrial refrigeration regas restores the correct refrigerant charge after leak detection and repair, helping process chillers and industrial plant recover safe, efficient cooling. UKGP Industrial provides F-Gas certified diagnosis, recovery and recharge from £120+VAT.
Scope
A regas is not simply a refrigerant top-up. Refrigerant circulates within a sealed circuit, so a low charge usually means there is a leak or a previous repair has not been correctly recommissioned. Our industrial refrigeration engineer starts with system identification, operating checks and fault diagnosis before recommending a recharge.
The service can include leak detection, pressure or tightness checks, recovery of the existing charge, repair assessment, evacuation, dehydration and a measured recharge to the manufacturer’s data. We then check operating pressures, temperatures and cooling performance and provide the relevant service record.
We support process chillers, packaged cooling equipment, cold-room plant and industrial refrigeration systems. Common air-conditioning refrigerants include R32, R410A and R407C, while refrigeration plant may use R404A, R448A or R449A. The correct refrigerant and charge must always be confirmed from the equipment data and system design; refrigerants are never mixed or substituted casually.
Diagnosis
Cooling output has dropped while demand remains unchanged
The chiller runs for longer or struggles to reach set point
Low-pressure or refrigerant-related alarms recur
Ice forms where it did not previously appear
Energy use rises without a matching change in load
Oil staining or an identified leak is visible around fittings
These symptoms do not prove that the refrigerant charge is low. Restricted airflow or water flow, fouled heat exchangers, failed sensors, control faults and compressor problems can produce similar symptoms. Testing first avoids an unnecessary recharge and helps protect the equipment.
Method
Confirm the equipment, refrigerant, reported symptoms and operating condition.
Check the circuit and investigate charge loss before refrigerant is added.
Recover refrigerant where required, assess repairs, evacuate and prepare the sealed circuit.
Recharge accurately, run the plant and verify pressures, temperatures and cooling performance.
Coverage
UKGP Industrial supports commercial and industrial sites across the United Kingdom. When requesting attendance, provide the site postcode, equipment make and model, refrigerant shown on the data plate, alarm details and any recent service history. This helps us assess travel, access and likely materials before confirming the visit.
Pricing
The starting price applies to the service assessment and regas scope. Your quoted total will reflect refrigerant type and quantity, leak testing, site access, recovery requirements and any repair parts or additional labour needed. We confirm the applicable scope before chargeable remedial work proceeds.

Our industrial refrigeration regas service starts from £120+VAT. The final price depends on the refrigerant type and charge weight, access, leak-testing requirements and any parts or repairs needed before recharge.
Yes. We diagnose and recharge process chillers and other industrial refrigeration plant. Before adding refrigerant, an engineer checks the system condition and investigates why the charge has been lost.
For air-conditioning duties, common refrigerants include R32, R410A and R407C. Industrial refrigeration equipment may use R404A, R448A or R449A. Suitability is confirmed from the equipment data and system design before work begins.
Yes, where the equipment contains fluorinated greenhouse gases. All work is completed by F-Gas certified engineers in accordance with the F-Gas Regulations 2014, including compliant recovery, handling and service records.
Low cooling output can indicate a low charge, but it may also be caused by airflow, water-flow, sensor, control or compressor faults. Our engineer tests the system first so refrigerant is not added to a leaking or otherwise faulty circuit.
