Standards & Regulations : Keeping your systems operating safely, but only if you know what they say

Standards and regulations have been an important aspect of the refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump (RACHP) industry for many years. Regulations such as the ozone protection regulations, and latterly the F-Gas regulations, have been well publicised and largely self-policed within the industry but there are many other regulations and standards which have been in place in one form or another just as long but have been less publicised and often less well observed.
