Among the primary ambition of these enlightening webinars is to provide information and guidance on new industry developments and trends. There will be particular focus on different European regulatory changes, such as F-Gas and EcoDesign 2021, giving customers the essential keys to prepare for the high season and maximise potential gains.
A comprehensive understanding of regulatory changes is vital for all professionals in the HVAC-R sector, from consultants and design engineers, to installers, facility managers and maintenance personnel. Delivered by the renowned Lennox University, each webinar focuses on a specific topic identified as an ‘area of concern/interest’ through discussion with customers.
For example, the first webinar will centre on the use of A2L in refrigeration applications. Taking place on April 15th and available in English, Spanish and French, refrigeration installers and wholesalers will learn more about A2L refrigerants, their composition, and their use in line with current regulations. Relevant regulation studies will reveal the main benefits of A2L refrigerants, while participants will also discover more about the calculation for permissible refrigeration charge/load limits and the principles of risk analysis.
Staying abreast of regulatory changes is paramount from the perspective of sector professionals, so this webinar presents a great opportunity to build knowledge and learn more about the refrigerant transition.
Subsequent webinars focus specifically on HVAC applications. For instance, on April 22nd, Lennox, through refrigerant comparison, will explain why R32 is a wise choice for rooftop units and how to achieve a smooth transition from R410A. Here, installers, engineers and end users will learn more about R32 as an A2L refrigerant, its suitability for different projects, and its applicable regulation. Six language options are available: German, Dutch, English, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.
On April 28th attention turns to understanding more about the specifics of the refrigerant changeover in HVAC applications. This webinar will set out how the F-Gas regulation is shaping the HVAC industry, and highlight the emergence of several lower-GWP refrigerants. Installers and engineers will hear about the impact of this trend and how to ensure a pain-free transition. The language options for this webinar are German, Dutch, English, Spanish, French and Portuguese.
These same language options apply to the next webinar, on May 4th, which will pinpoint the key facilitators that deliver optimised energy efficiency. Both end-users and maintenance professionals will benefit from registering for this presentation, the focus points of which include selecting the right IAQ (indoor air quality) solution while managing energy consumption, upgrading fan technology, cloud-based monitoring and EcoDesign 2021.
Rounding off Learning Month will be the webinar on May 11th: choosing between a rooftop or chiller/AHU solution. The differences between the two solutions, along with best-practice selection criteria, will help installers, engineers and end users grasp the fundamentals required to reach the optimum decision. This webinar is available in German and Dutch.
Ultimately, knowledge provides many opportunities, not least the chance to make astute selection decisions, optimise refrigeration and HVAC units for performance and efficiency, and become a source of advice and expertise. All those participating in any of the webinars at Learning Month will also get the opportunity to ask questions of the respective Lennox HVAC-R specialist.
