REFRIGERANT RECOVERY


share them with other countries.


We believe that the success of Rapid Recovery in the UK points to the fact that it will be welcomed in continental Europe too. Visitors to Chillventa will have the opportunity to see for themselves how the service can make a difference.


Visit the A-Gas stand and talk to our team of experts about the range of low GWP refrigerants available. R448A is one to keep an eye on as it provides an excellent combination of low GWP and high energy efficiency, as well as offering reduced compressor discharge temperature at medium and low temperature conditions.


Another one to watch is R449A, a low GWP HFO blend used as a replacement for R404A and R507 in low and medium temperature refrigeration applications. R449A is suitable for new installations as well as retrofits of existing equipment. Its low GWP of 1397 gives it great energy efficiency and environmental properties. Finally, returning to my overview of the market, I have no doubt that with each successive step down in the F-Gas programme, the effects will have wider implications for the industry. The next big change on the horizon is the service ban on high GWP refrigerants in 2020, but there is a lot of work to be completed between now and then. Contractors still need a longer- term focus on how they can help their customers move down the

GWP curve and switch to lower GWP refrigerants. In doing so, this presents an opportunity for the industry to benefit from a wealth of retrofit work, using new technologies that have been developed to provide greater efficiencies and a different way

The year ahead will open many doors for the industry, and getting to know low global warming potential refrigerants better, and learning how to use them more efficiently, will top the priority list.
