International. HVAC/R technicians from Guatemala City, San Salvador and Managua attended Uniweld seminars that focused on welding technologies and techniques to minimize refrigerant leaks, as well as updates on the latest product launches.
Some of the key points of the talks included the importance of properly selecting your equipment for the correct installation, service and maintenance of air conditioning and refrigeration units, to allow HVACR technicians to achieve optimal performance and smooth operation.
"In most Central American countries, HVAC/R technicians often select a cheaper option and, in doing so, can circumvent some of the proper guidelines and installation procedures required by the equipment manufacturer, as well as jeopardize the proper functioning of the equipment with the lowest quality product. As a manufacturer, I feel it is Uniweld's responsibility to educate technicians on the use of the right tools and procedures to ensure safety and optimal equipment performance."
The technicians who attended the event were grateful for the information presented. Jairo Garcia, from Refriteca, Guatemala, said: "Excellent seminar. This is the second time I've attended a Uniweld seminar, and it's always great. I always learn new things."
