摘要
Heat pumps are viewed as the primary path to the electrification required to reduce and eliminate fossil fuels and associated carbon emissions in building energy systems. However, most heat pumps used in the U.S. today contain R-410A, which is itself a relatively potent greenhouse gas. Preventing refrigerant leaks is therefore a priority. This article examines the issue and suggests best practices to prevent refrigerant leaks.
