Seminar 13 -- Low Global Warming Potential Refrigerants for Direct HVAC Applications

This product is a zip file that contains files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.

Differences in properties of low GWP refrigerants (e.g., low levels of flammability and toxicity) may require changes made to current commercial practices and building codes to minimize risk while meeting climate regulations. Stakeholders are working together to identify and address issues to ensure a safe transition to low global warming potential refrigerants including and beyond research, safety standards and building codes, transportation, handling, maintenance, etc.
