Federal leak rules now reach smaller systems, while state requirements add complexity — allowing contractors to turn refrigerant management into a revenue-generating service offering.
With A2L refrigerants, leak prevention and detection matter more than ever, so technicians should follow best practices and use the right tools to find and fix leaks.
The Intertek certification verifies that the device meets the safety and performance requirements for refrigerant detection systems outlined in Annex LL of UL 60335-2-40:2022 Ed. 4 and CSA C22.2#60335-2-40:2022 Ed. 4.
RDSs are generally required in A2L systems that contain more than 4 pounds of refrigerant and can either be field or factory-installed, depending on the manufacturer.
