As one of the larger contributors to a facility’s expenses, it is critical to incorporate preventative measures into regular maintenance and cleaning plans for boilers.

Propane use at Ruby’s Inn has helped eliminate 5,200 metric tons of CO² equivalent. This is equal to the greenhouse gas emissions from 1,410 gasoline-powered passenger vehicles driven for one year.

Advanced electrode boilers are being installed to replace outdated, inefficient fuel-burning equipment in district heating applications as part of a broader effort to meet ambitious International Energy Agency decarbonization goals.

High temperature fluctuations, foot traffic, dirt and debris, and more can wreak havoc on units, particularly if they are not well maintained.

In this month’s troubleshooting situation, you are responding to a customer’s complaint that their walk-in cooler “isn’t cooling enough.”

Emerson announced a new platform of AWEF-compliant condensing units for walk-in coolers to meet the DOE rule.

Refrigerated Solutions Group and Budderfly announced the results of energy efficiency pilot projects across two Subway restaurant locations using RSG’s Capsule Pak ECO™.

How do we motivate HVAC contractors to do more refrigerant recovery? The ACHR NEWS posed the question to three industry experts on the front lines of the refrigerant transition. Here’s what they had to say about what that will take — and what we’re all going to be in for if we don’t.

With the ongoing HFC phasedown, strong refrigerant management strategies are crucial to ensuring compliance, environmental responsibility, and business growth.

Next-generation ZE refrigerant blends offer customized performance that is tailored to the application, while helping support the push for decarbonization.

CO₂ refrigeration, which has gained significant traction in ice arenas and supermarket coolers, is now emerging as a groundbreaking technology revolutionizing the way we cool and heat across industries worldwide.

The NSF is providing a grant to six universities, which will work together to create sustainable refrigerant technologies.

New report finds that GHGs can be reduced significantly through the use of reclaimed refrigerant versus producing and using newly manufactured virgin refrigerant. 

A new technology has been developed that can decompose refrigerants, using a catalyst made from industrial waste called “red mud.'’ 

As the industry continues to evolve, it’s essential for HVACR contractors to embrace comprehensive training programs that address both foundational knowledge and hands-on experience with CO₂ systems.

In this episode, The ACHR NEWS speaks with Andre Patenaude from Copeland about some of the current issues that are shaping the commercial refrigeration industry.

New cooling technologies that promise to revolutionize the way climate control is approached are emerging in the HVACR industry.

The EERS required Indiana’s electric utilities to cut energy delivery by an average of 2 percent annually, as well as providing home energy assessments, low-income weatherization, and efficiency rebates for businesses, homeowners, and schools. In 2014, Indiana legislature passed SEA 340 to cancel the EERS. Then Gov. Mike Pence did not veto or sign the bill, so it became law, and Indiana became the first state to repeal its energy efficiency standard.

A compressor design proposes a new drive mechanism for compressors used for cooling in homes, buildings, airplanes, and cars.

Compressor manufacturers have been improving the products on multiple fronts in recent months.

At the AHR Expo, refrigeration manufacturers displayed their latest equipment and components that are geared toward the commercial refrigeration market.

Continuous and rapid cycling is hard on a compressor, but the use of a simple time delay relay can mitigate the risk of compressor failure.

Digitalization is a technological paradigm shift that is transforming our lives, and is set to have a compelling impact on the cold chain.

NASRC to offer free training event for refrigeration technicians in St. Louis who want to learn more about natural refrigerants, such as CO₂ and propane.

NASRC will offer free comprehensive CO₂ and propane refrigeration training at its Natural Refrigerant Training Summit.

The Inflation Reduction Act’s (IRA) tax credits and rebates can unlock thousands for residential homeowners looking to upgrade to energy-efficient HVAC equipment.

This product introduces two fan speeds to evaporator fans: low speed when no refrigerant is needed and high speed only during active cooling.

A few months on the other side of the summer’s FER implementation, we check-in with aftermarket motor veterans and a furnace manufacturer.

The Millennium Tower, a luxurious condo-and-retailer tower in Boston, will incorporate Schöck Isokorb® structural thermal breaks in the terraces at the penthouse levels to ensure thermal comfort in the city’s tallest and most expensive residential building. 

The benefits of building information modeling (BIM) and other technology advancements that allow the exchange of information on design and construction projects, including improving labor productivity and reducing costs for construction companies, are just the beginning of what can be achieved, according to a new study.
