Air Conditioning (Split Systems) - Installation

The Air Conditioning (Split Systems) - Installation Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS) outlines the main hazards and risks including electrocution, hazardous manual tasks, hazardous chemicals and risk of falls in workplaces where the installation of split system air conditioners is carried out. The SWMS provides details of the precautions (including protective clothing and PPE) to be observed when carrying out work involving split system air conditioning systems. (Note: Due to significant variations in Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) requirements between states and territories, reference to regulations, codes of practice and guidance material in each jurisdiction is recommended.)
