Description: |
First Edition
Author: Delta T. Solutions |
This manual prepares HVAC-R technicians with
the knowledge needed to respond professionally to current and future
environmental challenges. It begins with discussion of HVAC
fundamentals and core topics, such as: refrigerant chemistry, oils,
ozone depletion, global warming, and the Montreal protocol.
Subsequent sections, each conveniently
organized around a specific certification type, allow readers to
delve into specific technical information, regulations, and
procedures pertaining to small appliances; recovery, recycling, and
reclaim; and chillers.
Relevant forms, logs, and reports, plus a
comprehensive glossary, are also included in handy appendices.
In a field where technology change is the
norm, and regulations are increasingly requiring HVAC-R technicians
to adopt new procedures in order to contend with environmental
problems, this manual serves as both an effective test preparation
guide and an indispensable professional field reference.
