Are you prepared for the forthcoming ban of HCFC Refrigerants?
As from Midnight December 31st 2009 the use of virgin HCFC Refrigerants will be illegal.
The EU Ozone Regulation has already banned the use of CFC refrigerants in existing plants and HCFC refrigerants in new plants.
From 2010 banning the use of HCFC refrigerants in existing plants will commence, meaning that all HCFC refrigerants including R22 will be completely banned.
The use of Virgin HCFC's will be banned from Midnight 31st December 2009. The use of Recycled HCFC's will be banned from 31st December 2014. These 'use' bans apply to the use of HCFC's for plant maintenance and you cannot use previously purchased stockpiles.
