From July 2009, refrigerant gas can only be purchased by F Gas qualified personnel. The gas supplier should ask for proof of certification. From July 2010, all Mobile Air Conditioning technicians working with cars and vans must have achieved, as a minimum requirement, a refrigerant handling qualification, which fulfils The European Union F Gas regulation EC842-2006. This legislation applies to all garages, as the removal of any Air Conditioning component containing refrigerant requires the technician to be F Gas qualified. (check your insurance!)
