US AC companies act to ease R454B refrigerant shortage
US air conditioning manufacturers are working to resolve the R454B refrigerant shortage caused by supply chain issues and rising demand after the US AIM Act’s implementation.
Air conditioning: which refrigerant will become the leading alternative to R410A?
R32 is being adopted widely for residential and small commercial air conditioning applications, but R466A, R452B and R454B are promising candidates, especially for larger size systems.
IJR highlights: review of low-GWP alternative refrigerants
