Take care with air

Posted to on Share:

Specialist hire company Andrews Sykes warns that underinvestment in maintenance over recent years, combined with introduction of a new British Standard and the looming R22 deadline, could see the commercial air conditioning sector experience a capacity crunch over the next eighteen months, and few businesses will have contingency plans in place.

Whilst broken air conditioning units create an uncomfortable indoor environment and reduce productivity, non-compliance with British Standard 15780 and the R22 issue could be argued as negligence and have legal as well as financial ramifications.

Andrews Sykes advises any organisation that uses or manages air conditioning to take steps to ensure compliance.

Hiring temporary air conditioning units could reduce any disruption should air conditioning systems in some businesses fail, due to lack of maintenance.
