ThermOzone is Carbon Trust accredited

ThermOzoneUK: ThermOzone has become only the third company in the air conditioning and refrigeration industry to achieve Carbon Trust Accredited Supplier status.

The Reading-based service and maintenance company, a member of the ThermaGroup, now joins Daikin and Emerson in being listed in the scheme which is designed to provide independent validation and recognition of a supplier’s skills and services.

Accredited suppliers must be able go prove their capability to deliver thoughtful, well-designed energy efficient and renewable energy systems. Carbon Trust Accredited Suppliers are included in the Green Business Directory.

Commenting on the accreditation, Trevor Dann, ThermaGroup’s technical and sales director, said: “This recognises the tremendous energy and lifetime savings we have been making for our clients in regard to upgrade and replacement of older inefficient chillers under our ReChill and now NuChill brands.”

ReChill is designed to elevate old and tired chillers to higher operating standards, breathing new technology into old equipment and allowing energy savings as well as stability and reliability. NuChill is ThermOzone’s new chiller design, offering high efficiency, ease of use and low maintenance – and all built to a customer’s specific requirements.
