ACCA "Codes and Coffee" Explores Propane and HVACR

ACCA "Codes & Coffee" returns from the summer hiatus with a topic that is getting attention in some industry circles. This involves the future use of refrigerants beyond the popular A2Ls that are just arriving in response to the HFC technology transfer.

One such refrigerant is propane (R-290), which is classified as an A3 flammable refrigerant. The U. S. Department of Energy (DOE) has put together an industry working group to determine the feasibility of an “accelerated” introduction into the marketplace, including residential use.

A free, one-hour session on SEPTEMBER 26 will feature the following panel:

• Manny Chaves, Chaves Heating and Air Conditioning, and chairman of the ACCA Codes Subcommittee.
• Dr. Payam Delgoshaei, HVAC & Refrigeration Technology Manager, U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).
• Chris Forth, vice president of regulatory, codes & environmental affairs, Johnson Controls/York.
