Description
Scope
This qualification provides the competencies to determine heat loads and select equipment for basic commercial refrigeration or residential air conditioning applications. It includes regulatory requirements for purchasing and handling refrigerants.
Note:
1. Basic commercial refrigeration includes commercial coldrooms, freezer rooms and cabinets with single a compressor or condensing unit. This does not include large, complex commercial applications or industrial applications.
2. Residential air conditioning applications are those covered under the Building Code of Australia's - Class 1A Residential Buildings.
3. The Ozone Protection and Synthetic Greenhouse Gas Legislation Amendment Bill 2003 apply to this qualification. Prior to planning the delivery of any training and/or assessment activities all legislative and regulatory requirements shall be identified and included.
