London Cool ensures compliance with EU F Gas Regulations

Companies who service air conditioning units containing F Gas (fluorinated greenhouse gas) must, under a 2014 EU regulation, be certified to handle the F Gases.

London Cool is registered with REFCOM (Register of Companies Competent to Manage Refrigerants), to show that we are certified to service stationary air conditioning and heat pump systems containing F Gas.  Servicing includes installing, repairing, maintaining, leak testing, commissioning and decommissioning.  Our engineers also have to be qualified as individuals if they handle F Gas.

REFCOM has been appointed by the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) to operate as a certification body under the EU fluorinated greenhouse gas (F gas) regulation.

In addition, all our air conditioning units containing F Gas must be labelled as part of the written procedures for handling F Gases and the equipment used.  We have developed a comprehensive set of labels to ensure we are fully compliant with these requirements -

My air conditioning is not working. What should I do?

As the outside temperatures rise and the sun is beating through the windows, it is tempting to turn your portable air conditioning down to as low as 16 degrees, thinking that the colder the air conditioner is set, the faster it will cool the room.  In fact, this is not how the cooling units work.  Whatever the temperature is set at, an air conditioner will pump out the same amount of cool air, and setting it at a lower temperature only tells it when to stop pumping out the cool air, rather than speeding up the cooling effect. The air conditioning units should ideally be set at around 24/25 degrees, to ensure that the units are not working so hard that they stop working altogether.  The models most affected by the hot temperatures are the Climatemaster, KY32, Trotec 2600, PKY12 or Compact 12, whereas units such as the Weltems, can cope with the exceptional temperatures. If your portable air conditioner does stop working or is not cooling the room, ...

The advantages of a maintenance agreement for your air conditioning

Regular air conditioner servicing has many benefits Increased efficiency of operation Reduced chance of a costly, major breakdown at the worst time Longer lifespan of the unit Increased comfort Lower operating costs Improved air quality Priority call-out Adherence to manufacturer’s extended parts warranty Energy Efficiency Regular air conditioner servicing can improve your air conditioner's efficiency. A clogged air filter in your air conditioning system can affect its efficiency as it will obstruct the air flow and increase the energy consumption.   A clean air filter in your room air conditioner, whether it is a ceiling recessed cassette system, or a ceiling suspended system, saves 15 percent energy compared with a dirty one.   Dirty condenser coils will make the air compressor run harder which increases the energy consumption and your electricity bill.   Lower Repair Costs If regular maintenance is not carried out, your air conditioner co...

London Cool have drafted up a long read below regarding the introduction of one of the latest refrigerant gas for installed wall mount, ceiling mount cassette and floor type air conditioning systems.  Manufacturers include Mitsubishi Daikin Fujitsu Daikin and Panasonic Hope you enjoy the read and we will publish soon about new gasses used in portable air conditioning systems also. https://www.londoncool.com/ In 1999 the Kyoto Protocol on global warming listed HFC refrigerants that were contributing to the global warming. This, in turn, led to the introduction of F-Gas regulations in Europe and at the start of January 2015 the next stage of F-gas laws was introduced which detailed the phase down of HFC refrigerant. It is important to note though that this is a phase down and NOT a phase out – with regulations now based on the tonnes of CO2 equivalent of all refrigerants sold or traded in Europe. The air conditioning market moved over to R410a refrigerant in 2006 as it offer...
