Refrigeration

Refrigerant gases, including low-GWP A2Ls, may be low in toxicity but can pose serious hazards in enclosed spaces by displacing oxygen and creating asphyxiation risks, or even exhibiting toxic effects at high concentrations. Effective gas detection and ventilation are essential to maintaining safe air quality, especially in confined or poorly ventilated areas. The EPA regulates refrigerants under the Clean Air Act due to their environmental impact, and standards like ASHRAE 15 and local codes mandate proper leak detection and system safety. INTEC Controls offers code-compliant, scalable solutions—including support for A2L detection—that ensure regulatory compliance, workplace safety, and operational efficiency.
