Refrigeration & HVAC Design Support – Application Guidance
21 August 2024In the second article of our design insights, we look at refrigerant applications. We recognise that sometimes a customer needs guidance to navigate through the potential minefield of refrigeration legislation. The team at ODA understands the Global Warming Potential (GWP) metric of a refrigerants impact on the environment. The UK is phasing down out of high GWP refrigerants by 79% by 2030, so it is imperative that the choices made now can future proof your investment.
With the choice of multiple refrigeration and HVAC refrigerants available on the market, each with different safety classes and varying capacity, the responsibility to choose the best one, and then comply with standards and regulations can be daunting.
We would be happy to work with you by navigating through any capacity range of system, large or small, to capture tasks including –
- Ensuring the right refrigerant choice to best suit your application and requirements.
- Positioning and assessment of plant and components based on the refrigerant choice and size of system to provide you with confidence to move forward with your project.
- Provide specific detailed installation requirements in relation to the location of your equipment.
On multiple occasions we have successfully highlighted and repositioned equipment at pre-design stage to ensure our clients have a compliant system.
If we can help you with your application requirements and responsibilities, then please get in touch.
