Next-generation ZE refrigerant blends offer customized performance that is tailored to the application, while helping support the push for decarbonization.

HVAC manufacturers are prepared for the refrigerant transition to A2Ls but are finding that there is still strong demand for R-410A equipment.

With the ongoing HFC phasedown, strong refrigerant management strategies are crucial to ensuring compliance, environmental responsibility, and business growth.

The transition to A2L refrigerants will offer benefits to the environment, as well as business challenges for HVACR OEMs, distributors, and contractors.

The move to A2L refrigerants means compressors in new a/c and heat pump systems will have different features than older models. Three compressor manufacturers say they’re prepared.

How do we motivate HVAC contractors to do more refrigerant recovery? The ACHR NEWS posed the question to three industry experts on the front lines of the refrigerant transition. Here’s what they had to say about what that will take — and what we’re all going to be in for if we don’t.

Although CO₂ systems may seem a bit more complicated than HFC DX systems, they are actually quite similar, with the main difference being CO2’s higher pressure.

Timely refrigeration repairs are crucial to avoid product loss; temporary fixes can sometimes keep systems running until parts arrive.

After his grocery store burned down, a New Hampshire grocer rebuilt and installed a modular technology using the A2L refrigerant R-454C.
