EPA REFRIGERANT TEST A QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS | LATEST VERSION |
2024/2025 | GRADED A+
What is the primary purpose of refrigerant regulations established by the EPA?


✔✔ The primary purpose is to minimize the release of substances that deplete the ozone layer

and contribute to global warming by regulating the handling, recovery, and recycling of

refrigerants.




How does the EPA regulate the use of CFCs and HCFCs in refrigerant systems?


✔✔ The EPA has phased out the production and use of CFCs and is gradually phasing out

HCFCs, limiting their availability to encourage the use of environmentally friendly alternatives.




What are the penalties for violating EPA refrigerant regulations?


✔✔ Violations can result in hefty fines, legal action, and the suspension or revocation of a

technician’s certification, depending on the severity of the infraction.




Why is it important for technicians to properly recover refrigerants during maintenance or

disposal of systems?




1

, ✔✔ Proper recovery prevents the release of harmful chemicals into the atmosphere, protecting

the environment and ensuring compliance with federal regulations.




How does refrigerant reclamation differ from recycling?


✔✔ Reclamation involves reprocessing used refrigerant to meet purity standards, while recycling

involves cleaning and reusing refrigerant within the same system or a similar application.




What is the EPA’s stance on venting refrigerants during service or repair?


✔✔ Venting refrigerants is illegal under EPA regulations. All refrigerants must be properly

recovered to prevent environmental damage.




What safety measures should technicians follow when handling refrigerants?


✔✔ Technicians should use personal protective equipment, ensure proper ventilation, and follow

correct recovery and recycling procedures to minimize exposure to harmful chemicals.




How do new refrigerants, such as HFOs, differ from traditional refrigerants like CFCs and

HCFCs?


✔✔ HFOs have lower global warming potential (GWP) and do not deplete the ozone layer,

making them more environmentally friendly than traditional refrigerants like CFCs and HCFCs.
