    Dec. 2, 2011
    PhaseOutFacts.org is described as 'a one-stop-shop for information and deadlines on the refrigerant phase out.'

    The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) has relaunched the website it uses to keep industry professionals and equipment owners informed on the phase out of ozone depleting refrigerants: PhaseOutFacts.org.

    “PhaseOutFacts.org is a one-stop-shop for information and deadlines on the refrigerant phase out, as well as important safety information,” says Stephen Yurek, AHRI President and CEO. “We hope this site serves as a valuable tool for homeowners, business owners, technicians, and manufacturers.”

    Follow Terry McIver @TerryMcIverThe website includes detailed information on refrigerants, and the history of the Clean Air Act. The "Contractors and Technicians" section contains updates on sales restrictions and changes in how contractors service and dispose of systems and refrigerants. Information on residential and commercial air conditioning, as well as commercial refrigeration, is listed under the Equipment Owners section.
