Understanding the transition to zeotropic refrigerants: best practices for optimal system efficiency

By Michael Labacher – head of environmental services: A-Gas

As the Montreal Protocol and Kigali Amendment drive the global industry toward more environmentally sustainable refrigerants, the characteristics of the synthetic refrigerant blends being adopted are noticeably different from those we have historically relied upon.

The transition to A2L refrigerants has required careful updates to safety standards.

A2L refrigerants and the reinvention of safety standards

This four-part series by Eamonn Ryan explores how Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) systems are transforming HVAC design amid the global shift to low-GWP refrigerants and stricter energy standards. Drawing insights from ASHRAE experts featured in the ASHRAE Journal Podcast #52: ‘VRF Systems in an A2L World’, the series examines how innovation, safety standards, and international collaboration are shaping the future of climate control in commercial and residential buildings. This is article part two.
