CEN Opens Public Enquiry on Revised EN 378; AREA Calls on Contractors to Participate
The proposed revision of EN 378, the key European standard for refrigeration, air-conditioning, and heat pump systems, is entering public enquiry. AREA has published a bulletin advising its contractor members on how to engage with the review process.

CEN, the European Standards Organisation, is about to issue the proposed revision of EN 378 for public enquiry. The standard governs the design and installation of both factory-built and site-installed refrigeration, air-conditioning, and heat pump systems, so the changes under review will have a significant impact across the sector.
AREA has published an information bulletin aimed at its contractor members. The bulletin provides key advice on the current state of the standard review and on the inquiry stage, and it encourages all members to take part in the public enquiry. The association stresses that participation is important to promote the role of installers in the clean energy transition and to make sure the voice of refrigeration contractors is heard in the revision process.
