Residential (or home) refrigerators in the U.S. that presently operate with R-134a are targeted to be phased out because of the high GWP of the refrigerant. The leading replacement refrigerant in the immediate future is R-600a or isobutane, which is to be addressed in this seminar. Three of the most important issues related to this replacement strategy are: 1) changes in system performance, 2) flammability considerations and 3) serviceability of flammable refrigerant units.
