Existing refrigerants in the field (R-22, R-410A) can continue to be reused in HVAC systems if reclaimed. Recovery by field technicians is a critical step for sustainability and the future of refrigerant supply management.
Our EcoClaim program supports sustainability through refrigerant recovery and reclamation.
