During Covid, RLNZ refreshed their courses in order to be fit for purpose with current technology in A1 and A2/A2L refrigerants and be ready for the release of A3 refrigerants into New Zealand.

People filling containers with gases under pressure, including cylinders, aerosols, and non-refillable containers must be trained and hold an Approved Filler compliance certificate. An Approved Filler compliance certificate must be issued by a compliance certifier.
