EPA Regulatory Requirements for Servicing of Motor Vehicle Air Conditioners

Service shops must certify to EPA that they have acquired and are properly using a pproved refrigerant recovery equipment, and that each person using the equipment has been properly trained and certified.

Technicians who repair or service CFC-12 and HFC-134a motor vehicle air conditioners must be trained and certified by an EPA-approved organization. Training programs must include information on the proper use of equipment, the regulatory requirements, the importance of refrigerant recovery, and the effects of ozone depletion. To be certified, technicians must pass a test demonstrating their knowledge in these areas.
