WHY NEW AIR CONDITIONING NEW INSTALLATIONS ARE IMPORTANT
Commercial and residential buildings account for the majority of the total carbon footprint of cities around the world. Most new buildings are built with the environment in mind, but the real key to substantial progress is reducing existing building energy consumption and carbon footprint.
In the present economic climate, there is a tremendous opportunity for cities and building owners to retrofit existing buildings to save money. The EU Energy Performance of Buildings Directive is now embedded in UK Law and important changes could be included as early as 2010.
Window Light Retrofit: Refurbishment of thermopane glass windows, using existing glass and sashes to create triple-glazed insulated panels with new components that dramatically reduce both summer heat load and winter heat loss.
Radiator Insulation Retrofit: Added insulation behind radiators to
reduce heat loss and more efficiently heat the building perimeter.
Client Lighting, Daylighting and Plug Upgrades: Introduction of
improved
lighting designs, daylighting controls, and plug load occupancy sensors
in common areas and tenant spaces to reduce electricity costs and
cooling loads.
Air Handler Replacements: Replacement of air handling units with
variable frequency drive fans to allow increased energy efficiency in
operation while improving comfort for individual clients.
Chiller Plant Retrofit: Reuse of existing chiller shells while removing
and replacing "guts" to improve chiller efficiency and controllability,
including the introduction of variable frequency drives.
Whole-Building Control System Upgrade: Upgrade of existing building
control system to optimise HVAC operation as well as provide more
detailed sub-metering information.
Ventilation Control Upgrade: Introduction of demand control ventilation
in occupied spaces to improve air quality and reduce energy required to
condition outside air.
Tenant Energy Management Systems: Introduction of individualized,
web-based power usage systems for each client to allow more efficient
management of power usage.

The Ozone Depleting Substances Regulation came into force in 2000 and has already banned the use of ozone depleting HCFC refrigerants such as R22 in new systems. R22 remains a very common refrigerant in existing systems used by many air conditioning users.
The Regulation bans the use of R22 as a “top up” for maintenance between 2010 (for virgin fluid) and 2015 (for recycled fluid)...

NEW AIR CONDITIONING INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Construction in the 21st Century demands that designers, specifiers and suppliers work as teams to create better buildings for occupants and the environment.
The Energy Performance of Buildings Directive(EPBD) introduced in 2003 across EU member states includes new levels of air tightness, Energy Performance Certificates and inspections of air conditioning systems.
