The IOR's RACHP EngTech Section has published two new good practice guides. Our latest ones, listed below, are a source of practical "toolbox talk" style information:
Storage of Refrigerant Cylinders in Commercial Premises (GPG107)
Air Conditioning Technology Part 6 – Compressors (GPG108)
They will be of interest to technicians, service engineers, installers and maintenance experts. If you are a Technician or employ Technicians please pass this information on.
Section Members are sent new printed bulletins every quarter and IOR members can download them for free from the IOR website. (Non members pay £6 per bulletin). Membership of the section is just £42 per year and includes immediate access to all downloads, and an annual CPD certificate.
