Why quality air conditioning can help to minimise your environmental footprint

Air conditioning has come a long way over the last few years. Quality brands are becoming more ecologically aware, gaining accreditation and adopting codes of good practice. The manufacturers themselves are supporting the initiative to provide greener, cleaner air conditioning by using a new generation of refrigerants that are more environmentally friendly than their predecessors.

The majority of manufacturers have opted to use a refrigerant gas that have zero Ozone Depleting Potential (ODP). Meanwhile the previously used, older refrigerant R22 is in the process of being phased out.

How you use your air conditioning has an impact on the environment. Make sure you set your temperature settings sensibly and ensure that you have your Perth air conditioning system booked in for regular servicing – solving any minor issues and taking preventative measures will not only ensure that your air conditioning is running effectively but a professional check-up can determine how energy efficient your air conditioners actually are.

At Ford & Doonan we only support quality brands that have made these important changes.  To find out more about cooling your environment responsibly or to schedule an appointment for servicing in Perth,we will be only too glad to assist.
