The regulatory and legislative landscape has been driving a transition to hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) based refrigerants due to their low global warming potential (GWP).

 

While these HFO-based alternative products can greatly reduce GWP, they also have a mild degree of flammability. Mildly flammable A2L refrigerants are still new to the industry, and safety is an important consideration when making the switch. We’re here to help by offering insights on how to use them properly. Neil Roberts, Technical Development Manager, has written a new white paper, Safety considerations and charge size guidance when using Low GWP XL Refrigerants, to help you move to reliable and sustainable low GWP options like Opteon™ XL—safely, cost effectively, and without sacrificing performance.
