The lectures planned include ‘Water retreatment in vehiclewash systems’, ‘Customer satisfaction in the car-wash business’ and ‘Water efficiency - EU-regulations on resource efficiency and the impact on vehicle cleaning’. MACSauto goes to great lengths to ensure that we import pure gases. For your peace of mind we also offer the following: Ÿ All our branches have portable refrigerant analysers that can test the purity of refrigerant at any time anywhere. These refrigerant analysers test R134a, R22, and R410a. If in doubt - TEST! (These analysers are also for sale.) Ÿ Refrigerants are imported from reputable and trusted suppliers with the relevant certificates of purity. These certificates are made available to all our customers. Ÿ Regular submission of samples from our entire range of refrigerants to an independent testing body in South Africa. Ÿ We use Dot-39 disposable cylinders. Ÿ Our refrigerant is branded as MACSauto. Be wary of suppliers supplying a no-name brand. Can your current refrigerant supplier offer you this kind of quality and purity assurance? We won't buy cheap to obtain your business, but rely rather on our integrity and service. Always remember... if it’s cheap it's probably nasty!
