National Inhalants and Poisons Awareness Week Aims to Curb Refrigerant Huffing
WASHINGTON — March 16-22 is National Inhalants and Poisons Awareness Week (NIPAW) and the Alliance for Consumer Education (ACE) is urging members of the HVACR community to be on high alert for signs of refrigerant abuse. As an HVACR contractor, you may be the first to spot signs of abuse, and your awareness may save a life.
Watch for the following signs that may signal inhalant abuse: frequent a/c repair calls to the same home or neighborhood, premature refrigerant depletion, and damaged a/c units.
