CO2 refrigeration systems demand both classroom knowledge and hands-on experience, which is why blending theory with practice creates top-notch technicians.
Since A2L refrigerants are designated as mildly flammable, safety features like refrigerant detection systems (RDSs) are being incorporated into new residential/light commercial ducted split systems that contain more than 4 pounds of A2L refrigerant. Here’s what HVAC technicians need to know about installing those RDS in the field.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently announced a final rule that focuses on reducing HFC leaks and maximizing refrigerant reclamation.
Johnson Controls Residential & Light Commercial announced the launch of its Refrigerant Detection System (RDS) Calculator within the Ducted Systems Solutions (DS Solutions) mobile app.
Ensuring a vacuum pump system is evacuated and free of air, nitrogen, moisture, and other contaminants is a crucial step to keep the system running optimally.
With the ongoing HFC phasedown, strong refrigerant management strategies are crucial to ensuring compliance, environmental responsibility, and business growth.
