Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc. will host a complimentary webinar entitled “Staying Ahead of Rulemaking Proposals on Acceptable Refrigerants.” The webinar will be broadcast August 26 at 11 a.m. PDT/2 p.m. EDT.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has proposed several changes under the Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program. Under its most recent Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR), numerous hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and HFC-containing blends previously listed as acceptable will be listed as unacceptable for some uses. This will affect supermarket systems, stand-alone equipment, condensing units, and even vending machines.
