Climate Control (South East) Ltd is committed to leading the industry in minimising the impact of its activities on the environment. We accept full responsibility for any pollution generated by the company, and its detrimental affect on both the local and global environment. The key points of our strategy towards achieving zero pollution are:
Barry Fisk, Director of Climate Control (South East) Ltd writes about the responsibility of the industry to safeguard the environment.
Our industry has changed dramatically since the Montreal Protocol effectively banned the production of CFC’s such as R12. Additionally, the use of HCFC refrigerants such as R22s now restricted. From 1st January 2000 the ban included distribution cold stores and all equipment including chillers of over 150kw shaft input.
This ban was further extended to all new equipment with a cooling capacity over 100kW on 1st January 2001 and has been effective on other new cooling only systems since 2003 and other reversible and heat pump systems since 2004. It will also prohibit the use of virgin HCFCs as a service refrigerant in existing equipment by 1st January 2010. HCFC phase out will be accelerated further by progressively reducing the size of the cap on supply to the market.
Many feel that they have gone green by adopting hydro fluorocarbons (HFCs). However the Government has now given a clear signal to industry that HFCs have no long-term future and are not a sustainable technology in the longer term. For the meantime they should only be used where there are no safe, cost-effective, practical and environmentally acceptable alternatives. Climate Control has recognised this problem and offers long-term environmentally friendly and cost-effective solutions such as hydrocarbons, ammonia and absorption systems.
Energy conservation also has a vital role to play in the fight against global warming. Climate control adopts best practice techniques such as fully flooded evaporators, floating head pressure controls and compressor motor controls within the constraints of the BATNEEC Protocol (best available techniques not entailing excessive cost).
We are striving to be a sustainable company. Recycling of waste is carried as far as is possible; car journeys to appointments are avoided; electrical equipment is turned off and not left on standby; non-recoverable plastics are avoided at all costs.
