As the HVACR industry continues to move forward and innovate, the refrigerants that were once so commonplace are now being phased out. Replacing them are more energy efficient, environmentally friendlier refrigerants, known as Low GWP refrigerants. Many of these new refrigerants are classified by ASHRAE as A2L, or slightly flammable. The industry is also seeing expanded use of some hydrocarbon (A3) refrigerants, such as propane and isobutane. Students and technicians will require additional training for the safe handling and transportation of these refrigerants. The Low GWP refrigerant program manual covers: Refrigerant safety Introduction to Low GWP refrigerants Refrigerant properties and characteristics The refrigeration cycle Working with refrigerant blends Proper installation and service guidelines Flammable refrigerant considerations Explanation of the associated codes and standards for A2L refrigerants

When installing or servicing an air conditioning or refrigeration system, two of the most important tasks performed by technicians are refrigerant recovery and system evacuation. In order to perform these tasks properly, and in a safe manner, technicians need to understand the theory behind them, having a working knowledge of the equipment and tools used, and employ accepted industry best practices. This e-book walks through each step of both tasks, while covering safety, theory, and application. Also covered are leak detection methods and filter drier use. System Recovery and Evacuation was written by HVACR instructors for HVACR instructors to provide sound, relevant information in a single source. This e-book provides students and practicing technicians with the information and knowledge necessary to understand refrigerant recovery, system evacuation, leak detection, and filter driers. It is full of color illustrations and includes worksheets that provide students and practicing technicians with the information and knowledge necessary to accurately and safely install or service air conditioning and refrigeration systems. The end of the e-book contains fill-in-the-blank questions that review the content of the entire manual.
