This course will cover Low GWP Refrigerants and their safe applications for air conditioning systems.

As the HVACR industry continues to move forward and innovate, refrigerants that were once commonplace to air conditioning systems are now being phased out. Replacing them are more energy efficient, environmentally friendlier refrigerants, known as Low Global Warming Potential (GWP) refrigerants. Many of these new refrigerants are classified by ASHRAE as A2L, or slightly flammable.  As a result of these changes, air conditioning installers and service technicians will require additional training for the safe handling and transportation of these refrigerants.  Equipment manufacturers are now using Low GWP / A2L refrigerants in their product lines.

Topics Include:
• Refrigerant safety
• Introduction to Low GWP refrigerants
• Refrigerant properties and characteristics
• The refrigeration cycle
• Working with refrigerant blends
• Proper installation and service guidelines
• Flammable refrigerant considerations
• Explanation of the associated codes and standards for A2L refrigerant

Certification:
As part of this course, a training manual will be provided in advance that covers the class objectives. At the end of the course, an open-book 50 question assessment will be provided that verifies the comprehension of the course material.

Includes:  study manual, class instruction, test and breakfast. 7:30 am registration & breakfast.  $150pp

This full day course provides a great technical overview of Fujitsu’s Halcyon products while complimenting it with application ideas, installation hints, tips, and requirements. Students will learn how Mini-Split Heat Pumps operate and how they can be applied to various heating and cooling projects.
In addition, the Electronics Testing & System Diagnostic (ETSD) portion of this class will provide in-depth troubleshooting for Halcyon Inverter systems. This will be a HANDS-ON portion of the course offering classroom style training on multi-meters, DC controls and circuits with diagnosis and testing of Fujitsu outdoor unit circuit boards.

Students need to bring a digital multi-meter with fresh batteries to the class. Multi-meter should be capable of specific component testing; this includes the diode check function and a 4 to10 mega-ohm testing capability.

Includes:  Hands-on electronics training, study materials, class instruction, breakfast & lunch.  Registration & breakfast 7:30am / $89pp

Instructor: Skylar Kaczanowski, Johnstone Technical Service Advisor

Note: Qualifies for Fujitsu Training Points & NATE Continuing Ed Credits.
