Blame it on Global Warming…. Global warming gets blamed for a lot of things – weather patterns, rising seas, those desperate images of polar bears without hope of land. But you can now officially blame the rising cost of your refrigeration bills on it too. We’re seeing prices of refrigerant climb as importers increase prices,
If you’ve read my last post and realised just how risky it is to stay on R22 you are probably thinking about a change. You’re not the only one. You may have noticed that the refrigeration industry globally is dealing with legislative impacts created through commitments to the Montreal Protocol as the world tries to address
EcoChill is proud to support the Refrigerant Recovery Trust and support the safe disposal of surplus synthetic refrigerants to minimise their effect on the environment. The Refrigerant Recovery Trust (RECOVERY) was formed in 1993 to promote and facilitate the collection, storage and disposal of surplus refrigerant gases used in refrigeration and air-conditioning and are now
We can all play a part in reducing our CO2 emissions impact, but did you know that refrigeration management has been suggested as the Number 1 global solution in reducing CO2-equivalent reductions between 2020 and 2050*? It’s calculated proper refrigerant management would eliminate 89.70 gigatons of carbon dioxide (compared to business-as-usual), just by implementing the 2016
The HFC Phase down is one of the biggest changes in HVAC&R history – this will affect all industries dependent on heating and cooling infrastructure. What is the HFC Phase Down? The world of synthetic refrigerants is undergoing significant change. A global treaty designed to protect the ozone layer and our atmosphere, the Montreal
