Planned Maintenance Contracts & Service Agreements

We work with operations and facilities teams on planned maintenance contracts that provide scheduled visits, documented service records, PSSR compliance support and priority response for unplanned issues.

Scheduled Servicing

Regular servicing and preventative maintenance tailored to your production schedule, equipment specifications and running hours. Reduce the risk of unplanned downtime.

Compliance Documentation

Written service records, PSSR Written Schemes of Examination and inspection documentation. Everything you need for internal quality audits and statutory compliance.

Priority Response

Contracted customers receive priority response for reactive callouts within the agreed service area. Call us directly and we will assess and advise immediately.

Beyond Standard Servicing

According to the Carbon Trust, compressed air can account for 10–30% of a manufacturing facility’s electricity use. We go beyond routine maintenance to help you identify hidden waste and manage compliance obligations.

Leak Detection

Ultrasonic leak detection surveys to identify and quantify compressed air leaks across your pipework and distribution system. Leaks can account for 20–30% of a compressor’s output. We find them and fix them.

Written Scheme of Examination (WSE)

PSSR requires a Written Scheme for all pressure systems. We prepare site-specific schemes, carry out statutory inspections and help you maintain the documentation required for compliance.

Energy Audits & Data Logging

We monitor system performance over time to identify inefficiencies, oversized equipment and opportunities for variable-speed or sequencing upgrades that reduce your energy bill.

Nitrogen Systems

On-site nitrogen generation eliminates cylinder logistics and ongoing gas costs. We specify systems to match your purity, flow and pressure requirements for manufacturing and process applications.

Air Quality & Filtration

Air quality testing and filtration upgrades for critical applications including food, pharmaceutical and electronics manufacturing where contamination is not acceptable.

Pipework Design & Installation

New pipework runs and system reconfigurations to improve flow, reduce pressure drop and support changes to your production layout or equipment.

Industries We Support

We support industrial and commercial sites where compressed air or nitrogen is production-critical, including supply to aerospace, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical environments where system compliance and documentation are non-negotiable.

Common Questions from Operations and Maintenance Teams

What areas do you cover?
We are based in Bedford (MK42) and typically work within roughly a 75-mile radius, covering locations such as Bedford, Milton Keynes, Northampton, Letchworth Garden City, Newport Pagnell, Luton, St Neots and Bromham. For suitable projects outside this area, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
Do you service Atlas Copco, CompAir, BOGE, Kaeser and other brands?
Yes. As an independent specialist, we service and maintain compressed air equipment from all major manufacturers, including Atlas Copco, CompAir, BOGE, Kaeser, HPC, Ingersoll Rand and Gardner Denver. We are not tied to any single brand, which means we recommend and support the best solution for your system.
Can you help with PSSR compliance?
Yes. The Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR) require a Written Scheme of Examination for most industrial compressed air systems. We can support you with planned inspections, servicing documentation and practical guidance on maintaining compliance. We advise on the basis of experience; for formal legal advice, consult a specialist solicitor.
Do you offer emergency or breakdown support?
Call us any time on 01234 364 446. For breakdowns within our operating area, we will assess your situation immediately and advise on response times and options. No unnecessary delays, no call centres.
Can you help reduce our compressed air energy costs?
Yes. According to the Carbon Trust, compressed air can account for 10–30% of a manufacturing facility’s electricity use. We offer system audits to identify inefficiencies, leaks and oversized equipment, and our written reports show exactly where savings can be made.
Do you offer planned maintenance contracts for industrial sites?
Yes. We offer planned maintenance contracts for industrial compressed air and nitrogen systems, providing scheduled visits, documented service records and PSSR compliance support. Contracts are structured around your production schedule, system type and compliance requirements. Contact us to discuss your requirements.
Are you tied to a single compressor manufacturer?
No. We are an independent compressed air specialist, not a manufacturer’s branch. We hold CompAir distributorship but service and maintain equipment from all major manufacturers. This means we recommend the right solution for your system rather than the branded one.
