What’s New with Regs: Refrigerants – Where are we now?

In this episode, we are joined by Emerson’s Dr. Rajan Rajendran who is the VP of Systems Innovation Center and Sustainability. Today we answer the question, “Is it still legal for me to charge my R-22 system.” In addition, we explore the reasoning behind the phase-out of the R-12 and R-22 and the effects caused by this decision. We also discuss the Montreal Protocol and how this relates to the phase-outs.
