Safe and Reliable

Higher level of safety compared with other industrial refrigerants such as CO2, ammonia and propane.

  • HFOs have low toxicity, compared to ammonia
  • HFOs are non-flammable or mildly flammable, unlike hydrocarbons such as propane
  • HFOs can be used in low pressure systems which reduces the potential for pressure explosions, and catastrophic equipment failure
  • HFOs operate at lower pressures which, in most cases, avoids complete shutdown of equipment
  • HFOs maintain performance over the lifetime of the equipment which increases the usable life of the system and reduces maintenance needs
  • HFO installations have more trained technicians for service needs
  • HFOs provide a more reliable heat supply through less downtime
