Do air conditioning systems heat?

We have equipment with R22 in it, can you help?

If your equipment contains R22 and is still functioning as required you do not have to remove it immediately.

We recommend that you consider replacing this equipment as part of your buildings development. Be aware that system components and R22 are no longer available so the event of an equipment failure is likely to mean the end of its life.
