SJH Mechanical assists in adhering to the most current F-Gas legal regulations. Numerous refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump systems include hydrofluorocarbons, a category of fluorinated greenhouse gas referred to as “F-Gas.”
If you are involved in recovering, handling, installing, supplying, manufacturing, servicing, maintaining, or owning equipment containing HFC refrigerants in stationary setups, you must obtain F-Gas qualification and certification in accordance with EU legislation.
An F-Gas qualification allows air conditioning and refrigeration engineers to fulfill legal obligations for working with fluorinated greenhouse gases, referred to as F-Gases. F-Gas regulations are overseen by the F-Gas register and DEFRA to support EU countries in achieving Kyoto protocol objectives. Organizations that operate, install, service, or maintain equipment with F-Gas are legally required to satisfy specific standards.
Fortunately, SJH Mechanical holds Refcom Elite F-Gas certification and membership in the governing body, enabling the provision of guidance and solutions to address all aspects of compliance with these dynamic regulations.
After an independent third-party audit, SJH Mechanical’s air conditioning division can support you with:
- Competent installation, commissioning, decommissioning, or maintenance of systems containing refrigerant
- Licensed waste carrier operations
- Safe handling of refrigerants
- Adherence to all current legal standards
- Implementation of auditable procedures for refrigerant control, with full accountability for usage and recovery
- Utilization of specialized, purpose-built refrigerant recovery equipment
- Execution of refrigerant transactions with minimal emissions and environmental consciousness
As part of ongoing F-Gas compliance management, SJH Mechanical documents the type and quantity of refrigerant in the equipment upon installation and supplies you with a record to retain for the mandated duration, ready for presentation to government authorities.
