HVAC Industry Shifts to A2L Refrigerants
In 2025, the HVAC industry will shift as manufacturers transition to A2L refrigerants, driven by the need for more environmentally friendly options. Unlike previous standards with refrigerants like R-22 and R-410A, technicians will now work with multiple A2L refrigerants, including R-32 and R-454B, reflecting the industry's move towards sustainability and regulatory compliance.
A2L Refrigerant Benefits
RectorSeal Ensures Compatibility
At RectorSeal, we ensure A2L compatibility through dedicated chemical compatibility testing to verify our products work seamlessly with the new refrigerants. Our engineering team rigorously tests each product under various conditions to confirm reliable performance with A2L systems. Since A2L refrigerants have similar miscibility and viscosity characteristics to R-410A, the risk of chemical incompatibility is low, further enhancing product reliability and safety.
Acid-Away®
Compressor Burnout Acid Neutralizer
Designed to neutralize acid buildup in refrigeration systems, enhancing their longevity and efficiency.
AC Leak Freeze®
Leak Sealants
AC Leak Freeze permanently seals refrigerant leaks in HVAC systems, activating upon contact with escaping gas to form a chemical weld without clogging.
Turbo-KleenTM
A/C System Flush
Effective for cleaning HVAC systems using A2L refrigerants. It helps maintain system cleanliness and efficiency without adversely affecting the refrigerant or system components.
FlaretiteTM
Gas Seals
Engineered to withstand the specific pressures and chemical properties of A2L refrigerants, ensuring durable and safe connections in HVAC systems.
