In his new role, Damon Reed will oversee all facets of the Pro Refrigeration operation, including the production team, engineering group, customer support team, and technical team.
Suddenly in high demand, HVAC contractors must quickly acclimate themselves with CO₂ refrigeration and its unique characteristics and service attributes, which differ from traditional hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-based systems.
CO2 is a highly attractive refrigerant for contractors and end users because it boasts a global warming potential (GWP) of 1 and an ozone depletion potential (ODP) of zero.
When it comes to helping retailers meet supermarket sustainability targets, Copeland has developed a variety of tools and capabilities along their paths to Net Zero.
As more retailers set short- and long-term sustainability targets, many are evaluating opportunities to reduce their carbon footprints while earning a return on investment (ROI).
Whether you’ve made a public declaration of sustainability commitments or you’re prioritizing steps along the path to Net Zero operations, migrating away from hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants is essential for achieving your goals.
The characteristics of CO2 refrigeration are quite different from traditional hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-based systems, which has created some misconceptions about applying it within U.S. food retail outlets.
All regulatory developments are impacting system architectures that favor lower refrigerant charges, natural refrigerants (CO2 and R-290) and the emergence of lower-flammability A2L refrigerants.
Continued proliferation of CO2 refrigeration systems around the globe has given equipment manufacturers opportunities to improve compression, controls and valve technologies — simplifying system management and bringing system costs into parity with traditional hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) systems.
