were talking about. However, some people admit having no idea what those
terms mean.
HVAC stands for Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning;
HRAC stands for Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
and
HVACR stands for Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning and
Refrigeration. HVAC is the technology invented and used to provide thermal
comfort and acceptable indoor air quality. The current

inventions made by M. Faraday, Lvov Nikolay, W. Rankine, S. Carnot, W.
Carrier, E. Ruud, R. Trane, J. Joule, and others.

Ozone Depletion Substances in Canada
In 1987, an international meeting was hosted in Canada with the aim of
creating a program that will help in eliminating those substances causing
ozone depletion. This led to a signed treaty known as the Montreal Protocol
between nations to protect the ozone layer. Although the treaty was signed
in 1987, a few amendments were made in 1990 and 1992. The protocol made sure
that those compounds causing depletion of the ozone layer was phases out.
On behalf of the Provincial Ministries of the Environment, an
Environmental Awareness Card is issued out to students who have taken the
environmental awareness course. In Canada, the Provincial Ministry of
Environment requires that people who work with controlled refrigerant be
certified. To become certified, you need to pass the EPA exam. The Ozone
Depletion Prevention (ODP) Card has to be with you at all times
The goal of this ODP (Ozone Depletion Prevention) practice exam is to

card is issued by the HRAI (Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning
Institute of Canada) to those individuals or technicians who according to
the provincial regulations, have taken an awareness course.
