This Code is intended to cover all systems classifiable as commercial and industrial refrigeration and airconditioning systems, including heat pumps, which use refrigerants listed in Appendix 3, or any other fluorocarbon refrigerant.Domestic refrigeration, residential airconditioning and automotive airconditioning systems are the subjects of separate Codes. This Code has been developed with the intention of reducing emissions into the atmosphere of refrigerants listed in Appendix 3, or any other fluorocarbon refrigerant.Environmental benefits and cost savings from reduced refrigerant losses can be expected from the application of this Code, including the use of alternative refrigerants (see also Section 13).
