F-Gas Regulations have now come into force. The main objectives of the regulations are to reduce emissions of fluorinated greenhouse gases used as refrigerants through better containment and leakage prevention.
As an operator of refrigeration, air conditioning or heat pump equipment you are now legally required to maintain records covering the maintenance of equipment and any refrigerants added to or reclaimed from your systems.
BL Group can help by offering competitively priced maintenance contracts for equipment including the necessary leak test and record keeping to meet your F Gas responsibility. For advice and assistance, including a free information pack click here to contact us.
To determine the Carbon Dioxide(CO2 ) equivalent of refrigerant, please use the formula and table below. Mass of Refrigerant (kg) x Global Warming Potential (GWP) from table below, then divide by 1000.
