Orting

Heat Pump Services for Orting • Heat Pump Repairs A significant percentage of heat pumps in Orting, WA are of the closed-cycle compression type. All such heat pumps require working fluids. Traditionally, the most commonly used working fluids in these heat pumps have been: CFC-12 Low- and medium temperature (maximum 80°C) CFC-114 High temperature (maximum 120°C) R-500 Medium temperature (maximum 80°C) R-502 Low-medium temperature (maximum 55°C) HCFC-22 for almost all low-temperature and reversible heat pumps (maximum 55°C). CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) have chlorine content. This and their chemical stability make them harmful to the environment. They lead to global warming and ozone depletion. Although these refrigerants are not prohibited, some old heat pumps still use them and you have to be careful when handling them. Note that although HCFC (hydrochlorofluorocarbons) working fluids have much lower chlorine content, they are still harmful to the environment. If you are buying a new heat pump system, ensure it uses HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) which are chlorine-free and which many consider long-term alternative refrigerants.
