Maybe they need to use it in the packaging of crumpets then, instead of
global warming CO2!

I've been online reading up a bit about air conditioning after seeing a
neighbour having it fitted. I notice some installation manuals stress
the need for the pipework to be nitrogen purged and pressure tested then
a full(ish) vacuum be drawn before introducing the refrigerant. Other
sources don't seem to mention this. Is a small proportion of nitrogen in
the system a serious defect and what would it's effect be during
operation?

I can't see anything too horrible happening. Nitrogen gas is very
unreactive; in fact it's used in place of the noble gas argon in
chemistry experiments where a *relatively* inert atmosphere is required
at minimum cost.
