The F-Gas Regulations


F-gases (fluorinated gases) are global warming gases which have come under the spotlight of the EC's Kyoto Protocol targets. The basic objective of the new legislation is to reduce emissions of these global warming gases from air conditioning and refrigeration equipment. F-gases include all HFC Refrigerants, including R134a, R407c, R410a and R404a. The main points of the new law include:
  • Regular leakage checks and prevention
  • Refrigerant records
  • Equipment labelling
