REFRIGERANT HANDLING - CFC CERTIFICATION CLASS

We have scheduled a Refrigerant Handling - CFC Certification Class for the evenings of April 9, 11, & 16. This is a 12-hour class with the test for certification on the last night. It is a difficult test and should not be taken without the course instruction first. This is not a "hands on" class, the material covered is all in the classroom. If you pass the test, you will hold the card that is the Environmental Protection Agency's certification to purchase and handle refrigerants as outlined in Section 608 of the Clean Air Act. The fine for improperly handling refrigerants can be up to $10,000. Since we need to order tests for this class we ask that you sign up no later than Friday, March 30.
