Hydrocarbon Refrigeration – Level 2 Award
Our Hydrocarbon Refrigeration Course is a specialist training programme designed to provide engineers with the knowledge and practical skills required to safely work with hydrocarbon (HC) refrigerants, such as propane (R290) and isobutane (R600a).
Hydrocarbon refrigerants are increasingly used due to their low environmental impact and high energy efficiency, but they are also flammable, requiring specific safety procedures and handling techniques.
This course focuses on ensuring safe installation, servicing, and maintenance of hydrocarbon-based refrigeration systems in compliance with industry standards.

"Tim Morris is a brilliant trainer, as an ex Technical operations manager as Stiebel Eltron heat pump manufacturer my expectations are always high and rarely am I impressed by the brilliance of the training as they are usually tick box exercises, Tim exceeded all expectations, I’m leaving here as a better engineer, far more confident and more capable than I was when I walked in. Money well spent."
