Modine, a technology and indoor air quality leader in the HVAC industry, is dedicated to maintaining the highest level of product safety and certification. In furtherance of that mission, the IAQ leader has recently declared that several of its HVAC products for the K-12 market are now UL60335 certified.
The proactive shift was made to stay ahead of new regulations that will go into effect after Jan. 1, 2025. At that point, all new products and changes to products will need to be certified under UL60335 for new construction. Additionally, any equipment using A2L refrigerants can only be certified under UL60335.
Commenting on their activities, Joe Ellison, General Manager, Schools for the IAQ division at Modine, said, “At Modine, we strive to maintain strict standards of safety, quality, and sustainability for our products. By having our products tested and certified to the highest standards of safety, we are ensuring we stay compliant with regulations and meet the industry demand. Achieving UL60335 compliance now also prepares us to incorporate A2L refrigerants across our school product line, a step that prepares us for new regulations set by the American Innovation in Manufacturing Act and furthers Modine’s mission of using environmentally friendly refrigerants. Providing excellent IAQ remains a top priority for us, and having solutions that already meet the upcoming standards is beneficial to both contractors and end users.”
