Imperial announces change to 245fa blowing agent.Posted in Green Posted in Recommended Reading by Rick on 07/03 at 01:20 AM Imperial Manufacturing changed to 245fa blowing agent used in polyurethane foam production June 1. Imperial now joins leading walk in cooler / freezer manufacturers in providing the highest R value panels available. Imperial 4” panels exceed federal 2009 freezer standards and Imperial’s unique 3-1/2” panel exceed federal 2009 cooler standards! These standards will go into effect January 1, 2009 as required by the US Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. We cover all this information and more in our “Countdown To Implementation: Energy Independence Act 2007” web site.
While Imperial exceeds 2009 federal standards with minimal thicknesses of panel, we strongly believe in maximum energy savings. That means going far beyond federal minimums. California Energy Commission (and Oregon Building Code in 2009) already requires R values considerably higher than federal standards. Cooler panels need to be 4” thick and freezer panels need to be 5” thick to meet these standards. We have met these stringent standards since inception and, in fact, are the first Walk-in manufacturer to be tested and validated by an Energy Star testing agency. Imperial is receiving energy incentive rebates for its industry-leading Walk-in Cooler and Freezer systems.
