EPA is counting on increased recovery and reclamation in order to maintain existing HVAC equipment, and finally, the numbers are going in the right direction.

Grocers are looking to their refrigeration contractor partners to be the experts and make suggestions about how they can transition smoothly to the new low-GWP refrigeration technologies.

EPA recently reported an increase in the total volume of HFCs reclaimed in 2023 compared to 2022.

New cooling technologies that promise to revolutionize the way climate control is approached are emerging in the HVACR industry.

In this episode, The ACHR NEWS speaks with Andre Patenaude from Copeland about some of the current issues that are shaping the commercial refrigeration industry.

As the industry continues to evolve, it’s essential for HVACR contractors to embrace comprehensive training programs that address both foundational knowledge and hands-on experience with CO₂ systems.

CO₂ refrigeration systems demand both classroom knowledge and hands-on experience, which is why blending theory with practice creates top-notch technicians.

In the sixth installment of this series, we ask if A2L refrigerants are as flammable as propane or hydrocarbons.

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.
