BOWLING GREEN, Ohio — A-Gas is proud to highlight its Rapid Exchange service, designed to streamline the refrigerant recovery process for HVACR professionals, contractors, and businesses nationwide.
The Rapid Exchange on-site cylinder swap program offers a solution for exchanging recovery cylinders. It ensures that customers receive clean, vacuumed, and in-date DOT-certified cylinders without the hassle of deposits, freight charges, or unexpected fees. With the one-for-one cylinder exchange, customers can easily participate in A-Gas’ refrigerant buyback program with the most competitive buyback rates in the industry while receiving comprehensive EPA documentation.
Rapid Exchange makes getting new, clean recovery cylinders easy. EPA-certified technicians visit customer locations to facilitate the exchange process. A-Gas handles the swapping of cylinders of all sizes, ensuring customers always have access to refrigerant recovery cylinders. Following the swap, A-Gas sends a check for the recovered refrigerants, offering financial benefits. "Our Rapid Exchange service is designed to simplify the refrigerant recovery process," said Brad Williams, Network Sales Director for A-Gas Rapid Recovery and Rapid Exchange services. "Contractors and HVACR professionals can trade their full refrigerant recovery cylinders for new ones without fees and access A-Gas’ refrigerant buyback program, all while participating in the circular economy."
Rapid Exchange® plays a crucial role in promoting circular business practices within the HVACR industry. After cylinders are swapped, the recovered refrigerant is sent to an A-Gas facility where it is reclaimed to AHRI-700 specifications before re-entering the supply chain. When refrigerants can no longer be re-processed, they are safely destroyed using proprietary PyroPlas® technology, which boasts a guaranteed destruction efficiency of 99.9999%.
The Rapid Exchange® service is an extension of A-Gas’ Rapid Recovery on-site refrigerant recovery service, where EPA-certified technicians will go to a customer’s location to recover refrigerant directly from systems at up to ten times the speed of traditional recovery equipment.
By providing reliable and efficient refrigerant management, A-Gas supports a wide range of industries in maintaining environmentally responsible practices. Rapid Exchange also addresses the growing concern over counterfeit recovery cylinders by providing customers with DOT-certified refrigerant recovery cylinders, ensuring safe recovery and transport.
