CPD-logoUK: The R32 training course announced by Panasonic distributor Logicool, earlier this month, has received CPD accreditation.

Courses on the use of the new “mildly flammable” lower GWP refrigerant are being held at Logicool’s new training room at its offices in Swadlincote, Derbyshire. Panasonic is launching R32 air conditioners in the UK in April.

Since opening the training room earlier this month, Logicool has been running weekly courses advising business owners, contracts managers and supervisors of the management of A2L Refrigerants within their business as well as updating their knowledge base with regards to F-gas regulations and the future of the  industry.

According to Logicool, the courses are proving to be very successful with excellent feedback from all attendees. .
