Free Refrigerant Webinars To Focus On A2Ls
AHRI sessions will cover upcoming refrigerant transition
Federal regulations are requiring a transition to lower-GWP refrigerants, many of which are classified by ASHRAE as lower flammability and low toxicity (A2L). AHRI continues its refrigerant webinar series this month with several sessions designed to educate HVACR professionals about this upcoming refrigerant transition.
On Wednesday, July 21 at 4 p.m. Eastern time, the session entitled, “Joint Types and A2L Refrigerants” will take place. In this session, HVACR technicians, pipefitters, and sheet metal workers are invited to learn which fittings perform best based on ASHRAE's testing of the leak performance of different types of fittings installed by experienced and inexperienced HVACR technicians.
This webinar will feature industry experts discussing the fitting evaluations in the UL 207 standard, how the standard is used to evaluate fittings, and the ASRHAE research project results.

On July 28 at 4 p.m. Eastern time, the webinar, “HVACR Equipment Needed for the Safe Refrigerant Transition” will take place. In this session, HVACR technicians are invited to learn about the equipment needed for installing and servicing equipment that will contain the new A2L refrigerants. This session will cover the types of equipment that will be necessary as the transition occurs and where it can be obtained.
