EPA Section 608 Refrigerant Regulations

EPA RegulationsMany companies are beginning to focus on sustainability in their refrigerant equipment, which is needed. However, it's difficult to look at sustainability unless you are already in compliance. Make sure you're up-to-date on EPA section 608 regulations. At Trakref, we created this helpful handout to help you learn:

  • What Section 608 is
  • Recordkeeping requirements
  • Leak rate calculations
  • Leak rate thresholds

EPA Section 608

The EPA requires certain recordkeeping requirements for appliances with charge size of 50 or more pounds

Leak rates must be calculated using the annualizing or rolling average method

There are specific leak rate thresholds for industrial process refrigeration, commercial refrigeration and comfort cooling
