Refrigerant leak detection in living spaces
Refrigerant leaks in hotel bedrooms and apartments are a hidden but serious risk. These gases are odourless so occupants may be unaware until they feel dizziness, nausea or worse. Continuous monitoring ensures these spaces remain safe for guests and residents.
Under BS EN378, leak detection is a compliance requirement for occupied rooms served by DX systems. Installing a sensor not only provides early warning but also supports sustainability by reducing refrigerant losses.
Building operators can also gain BREEAM Pol 01 credits, boosting environmental performance ratings. Safety, compliance and sustainability all in one step.
