With the new alternatives and various blends, you could be faced with up to over 50 different types of refrigerants. Know the type of refrigerant yon are working with, do not guess. Never mix refrigerants. Mixed refrigerants are very difficult to separate and in some cases impossible to reclaim properly. Mixed refrigerants are expensive to properly and environ- mentally dispose. Don’t forget to remove the recov- ered oil from your recoverylrecycling machine. Many refrigerant oils are not compatible with each other. If you recycle refrigerant, you are liable for the quality of the refrigerant returned to any system. Without testing of the refrigerant, there can be no guarantee that it meets ARI specifications. An important note: refrigerants have unusual water solubility characteristics. Except for HCFC- 22, refrigerant vapor actually can hold more water than can refrigerant liquid. So refrigerant must be thoroughly processed in both vapor and liquid states through the filter-driersof your machine. Otherwise, you might return large quantities of water to the air conditioning system.

    State of California Air Resources Board Second Notice of Public Availability of Modified Text and Availability of Additional Documents Proposed Amendments to the Prohibitions on Use of Certain Hydrofluorocarbons in Stationary Refrigeration, Chillers, Aerosols-Propellants, and Foam End-Uses Regulation Public Hearing Date: December 10, 2020 Public Availability Date: August 3, 2021 Deadline for Public Comment: August 18, 2021 At its December 10, 2020, public hearing, the California Air Resources Board (CARB or Board) approved for adoption the proposed amendments to sections 95371, 95372, 95373, 95374, 95375, 95376, 95377, 95378, and added section 95379 Article 4, Subarticle 5, Chapter 1, Division 3, Title 17, California Code of Regulations, which prohibits certain substances in refrigeration, air-conditioning (AC), chillers, cold storage, aerosols-propellants, and foam end-uses to reduce high-global warming hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) emissions and support California’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduction goals. In Resolution 20-37, the Board recognized the importance of near-term actions to reduce GHGs, including HFCs, by ensuring successful and orderly transition to lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants, which is necessary to reduce the impacts of climate change, and meet California’s legal mandate to reduce HFC emissions by 40 percent below 2013 levels by 2030, as identified in section 39730.5 of the Health and Safety Code. The Board, therefore, approved the adoption of the proposed amendments and found that an additional compliance pathway for AC manufacturers was appropriate.1 The Board directed the Executive Officer to determine if additional conforming modifications to the regulation were appropriate and to make any proposed modified regulatory language available for public comment, with any additional supporting 1 See State of California, Air Resources Board, Board Hearing Transcript, December 10, 2020.
