How ‘natural refrigerant’ air conditioners can reduce your running costs

Refrigerants such as hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and ammonia are called ‘natural refrigerants’ because they occur in nature.

Used as cooling agents in air conditioners, hydrocarbon natural refrigerants are more energy efficient than traditional synthetic HFC refrigerants.

 

The fact they reduce energy bills is not the only reason why they’re becoming more popular. Many countries are looking to phase out high GWP HFCs and many major companies are pledging to switch to natural refrigerants.

Next time you’re buying an air conditioner, look for a product that uses natural refrigerants or low GWP synthetic refrigerants.
