Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) MVAC Certification 2025 - Free MVAC Certification Practice Questions and Study Guide

Question: 1 / 400

True or False: A technician trained and certified to handle HFC-134a requires additional training to handle CFCs.

True

False

The statement is false because a technician who is certified to handle HFC-134a does not require additional training to handle CFCs. The certification for handling refrigerants, including HFC-134a, generally encompasses knowledge of safe handling practices, recovery, recycling, and proper disposal of all refrigerants, including CFCs, which were commonly used before the transition to HFCs for environmental considerations. All technicians are trained to understand the basic principles and safety measures applicable to managing all types of refrigerants, so additional training for CFCs is not necessary if they are already certified for HFC-134a.

In other scenarios, additional training might be required based on specific refrigerant properties, but in this case, the general certification covers the necessary safety and handling procedures across the different classes of refrigerants.
