As part of Carrier’s commitment to providing solutions that matter to people and the planet, the company collaborated with government regulators to spearhead a new training program certifying HVAC professionals on the safe handling of low global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant R-32.
Refrigerant R-32 is an energy efficient and sustainable option for air conditioners. After extensive coordination with the Public Works Department (JKR) and Department of Environment, Parks and Recreation (JASTRE), Carrier volunteered its facilities and resources to institute a dedicated R-32 certification curriculum for HVAC professionals.
The inaugural cohort graduated in a ceremony held in Saturday at Tarindak D’ Seni in Subok and was attended by 20 members from JKR and JASTRE.
More than 170 HVAC professionals completed the certification with an 80 per cent pass rate.
