Environmental Property Comparison In the wake of increased global environmental regulation, R-1234yf has been introduced to exceed both United States EPA and European F-Gas phase-out guidelines for high global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. R-1234yf has become the industry standard refrigerant
When an automotive A/C compressor failure occurs, it’s best practice to flush out the system before installing the new compressor. Many times when a compressor fails it sends small metal particles throughout the A/C system. These particles can clog up
As the coolant in your cooling system increases in temperature, the pressure in the system also increases . Normal operating temperature of a cooling system is around 220 degrees Fahrenheit, which is slightly higher than the boiling point of water. The pressure
Every June 26, industry trade associations around the world come together to celebrate World Refrigeration Day. This global awareness initiative has been established to highlight and celebrate the significant contributions by the refrigeration industry to the health, food and comfort
