Q: Are A2L refrigerants safe around static electricity?
A: Static electricity can be a potential ignition source for flammable substances. Therefore, it is generally recommended to minimize static electricity generation and discharge when handling flammable refrigerants, including A2L refrigerants. This can be achieved by following good safety practices, such as wearing clothing made from low-static materials, using grounding straps or wristbands, and employing appropriate grounding techniques for equipment and tools.
