Last Updated: 2025





“Start Small, Build Big: Master the Basics.”






“Every technician starts somewhere.

Type 1 is where you build your foundation.” — Joe Joe



EPA Type 1 Certification

covers small appliances  under 5 pounds of refrigerant.


This is the perfect starting place for new techs who want to understand sealed systems, safety basics, recovery procedures, and the core refrigerant handling rules. I keep everything simple, visual, and real-world so you actually understand the why behind the work — not just the steps.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Sealed system fundamentals
  • Recovery procedures for small appliances
  • Refrigerant safety rules
  • Identifying leaks and system issues
  • Proper use of tools and recovery equipment
  • Core EPA refrigerant regulations


Takeaway:

You’ll walk into your Type 1 exam with clarity, confidence, and a real understanding of how small systems behave — the perfect foundation for bigger certifications.


The Why:

Type 1 gets your foot in the door. It’s your first win, your first certification, and it builds the confidence you need to keep going. It’s not “just small appliances” — it’s the start of your HVAC career.
