LANDSDALE, Pa. – The Climate Protection Partnership division of the U.S. EPA has partnered with the Mobile Air Conditioning Society (MACS) Worldwide to make available six mobile air conditioning best service practices checklists to help the automotive service professional provide environmentally and technically proper mobile A/C system service and repairs.

These checklists enumerate Best Practices for A/C Service, Leak Detection, Refrigerant Recovery, System Charging, Field Repair and Assembly of A/C Hoses and A/C Equipment Maintenance. They’re designed to promote efficiency and curb waste of resources. The checklists are useful for training new technicians and helping to incorporate efficient practices in the shop culture and can be posted as tangible reminders and logs for often overlooked but critical functions like tool and equipment maintenance and care.

These checklists can be downloaded for free in pdf file format from the Climate Protection Pledge section of the MACS Worldwide website at this link: http://www.macsw.org/AM/Template.cfm?Section=Service_Practices_Checklists=/CM/HTMLDisplay.cfm=6501
