Daikin UK leads the way with R32 refrigerant training

Sustainability Mon, Feb 13, 2017 11:05 AM

Daikin UK has successfully trained more than 500 installers on the use of R32 refrigerant since the launch of the ‘R32 System Installations – Are you ready?’ training course in November 2016.

Providing installers and engineers with a complete overview of how to install and commission R32 systems, Daikin UK is leading the way offering both a theoretical and a hands on approach when using the environmentally friendly refrigerant.

Designed and launched by Daikin UK, the course provides a comprehensive understanding of installing, commissioning and servicing R32 systems, in response to the introduction of the 2015 F-gas regulations and EN378 update.

To date, over 470 companies and 550 individuals have received comprehensive training in Daikin UK’s leading training facilities in Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow, Woking and the DoubleTree Hilton in Nottingham.

Course attendees have gained confidence in the installation and maintenance of R32 systems as well as better understanding of the handling and storage of the new refrigerant.

Martin Passingham, Product Manager for DX at Daikin UK said: “Providing installers with the knowledge and confidence to adopt the use of environmentally friendly, energy efficient refrigerants is essential to the F-Gas journey. We’re delighted that more than 500 installers and engineers have attended the course and are now ready to begin installing R32 based systems such as Bluevolution.

“The number of course attendees and the rate of course registrations is a clear demonstration of the demand for R32 training. With continuously developing regulations surrounding the environmental impact and carbon emissions of refrigerants, it is crucial that specialist manufacturer training is available so that installers and engineers can navigate regulation changes with peace of mind.”
