A NEW ASSOCIATION OF REFRIGERATORS IS BORN

Hand in hand with some entrepreneurs from Catalonia, the new association of refrigerators ASFRICAT is being created to act on current regulations and change the work scenario.
NACE UNA NUEVA ASOCIACIÓN DE FRIGORISTAS

Creating this association is not with the aim of buying cheaper, or looking for subsidies, or other similar things since for this there are already other associations (with time and with the decision of the associates can be changed) but the reason has been for the Administration to comply and enforce the current legislation especially Royal Decree 795/2010, and not making inspections to the least responsible that are the Authorized Company, if not to those who do not comply with the law and force us not to comply with the Authorized Companies and are the: owners of the facilities, re-money changers and marketers of gases, marketers of climate and refrigeration appliances, another reason is to eliminate unfair competition since today it is possible, before it was more complicated.

Royal Decree 795/2010 prohibits the sale and handling of fluorinated greenhouse gases (most refrigerant gases) and only Authorized Companies are authorized, the marketing of devices that contain or are intended to contain refrigerated gases is also restricted to authorized companies and whoever markets them must ensure that whoever installs it is an authorized Company, it also includes materials that their sole purpose is to be incorporated into a refrigeration installation, that is, filter, expansion valves et.

To this end, ASFRICAT will become a watchdog and collaborator of the Administration.

To announce the new creation of the association and to inform all interested people, a new forum has been created where, apart from the relevant information, suggestions can be sent and creators can be contacted.
