A-Gas, renowned for its environmentally responsible refrigerant management, has announced an expansion of its services to Salt Lake City and surrounding areas.
This move extends their Rapid Exchange® program, providing local HVACR contractors, businesses, and communities with quick and convenient refrigerant gas cylinder exchanges. This service joins the existing Rapid Recovery® program available in the region.
Efficient and Cost-Free Cylinder Swaps
A-Gas’ Rapid Exchange program offers an efficient solution for contractors and HVACR professionals to trade in used refrigerant gases for new cylinders without incurring fees.

"Rapid Exchange provides a simple way for contractors and HVACR professionals to trade their used refrigerant gases for new cylinders for zero fees, all while bolstering their bottom line with A-Gas’ generous immediate buyback program," states Dallin King, Field Service Manager for the Salt Lake City area.
The localized nature of Rapid Exchange eliminates freight or shipping costs, offering free local cylinder swaps—a significant benefit amid the rise of counterfeit recovery cylinders.
Guaranteed Buyback Program
The program ensures competitive buyback pricing for all properly recovered refrigerant cylinders. Sellers of refrigerants are assured that no buyback reductions will be applied due to contamination by mixed refrigerants, oil, moisture, acid, or particulates.
This initiative covers the greater Salt Lake City area, catering to businesses ranging from small HVACR contractors to larger establishments like grocery stores.
Circular Economy and Sustainable Practices
The program not only facilitates safe refrigerant recovery and reclamation but also strengthens the local economy
Once full recovery tanks are swapped for empty ones through Rapid Exchange, the refrigerants are transported to an A-Gas facility, reclaimed to AHRI-700 specifications, and reintroduced into the supply chain.
"By bringing these essential services to Salt Lake City and the surrounding areas, we are helping contractors incorporate sustainable business practices in their day-to-day operations," says Kimberly Ortwine, Territory Account Manager for A-Gas.
The program not only facilitates safe refrigerant recovery and reclamation but also strengthens the local economy by creating additional revenue streams for businesses.
Advanced Refrigerant Management Technology
A-Gas underlines its commitment to environmental stewardship through comprehensive lifecycle management of refrigerant gases. This includes their recovery, reclamation, market re-entry, and eventual destruction.
Employing its proprietary PyroPlas® technology—a TEAP-certified, United Nations-approved system—A-Gas guarantees unmatched destruction efficiency of 99.9999%, reinforcing its role as a leader in the responsible management of refrigerant gases.
A-Gas, a world pioneer in environmentally responsible lifecycle refrigerant management, announces an expansion of its nationwide service offerings now to the Salt Lake City and surrounding areas.
This expansion will provide local contractors, businesses, and HVACR communities with quick and easy refrigerant gas cylinder swaps through A-Gas’ Rapid Exchange® program, in addition to the existing Rapid Recovery® service.
DOT-certified refrigerant recovery cylinders
“Rapid Exchange provides a simple way for contractors and HVACR professionals to trade their used refrigerant gases for new cylinders for zero fees, all while bolstering their bottom line with A-Gas’ generous immediate buyback program,” says Dallin King, Field Service Manager for the Salt Lake City area.
Because Rapid Exchange sites are localized, there are never any freight or shipping fees for used refrigerants—just free local cylinder swaps. More important now than ever before with counterfeit recovery cylinders entering the market, Rapid Exchange provides customers with DOT-certified refrigerant recovery cylinders, facilitating safe refrigerant recovery and transport.
Recovered refrigerant cylinders
In addition, those looking to sell their used refrigerants need not worry about buyback reductions because of mixed refrigerants or normal oil, moisture, acid (burnout), or particulate quantities. A-Gas offers competitive buyback pricing for all properly recovered refrigerant cylinders.
Salt Lake City’s Rapid Exchange and Rapid Recovery® location offers services across the greater Salt Lake City area to support businesses of all sizes, from small HVACR contractors to regional grocery stores. Rapid Exchange enables safe and effective refrigerant recovery and reclamation.
After A-Gas Rapid Exchange swaps a customer’s full recovery tanks for empty tanks, the recovered refrigerant is sent to an A-Gas facility to be reclaimed back to AHRI-700 specifications and then re-enters the supply chain, contributing to the circular economy.

“By bringing these essential services to Salt Lake City and the surrounding areas, we are helping contractors incorporate sustainable business practices in their day-to-day operations,” says Kimberly Ortwine, Territory Account Manager for A-Gas.
“Our Rapid Exchange and Rapid Recovery services provide all businesses and HVACR contractors the opportunity to generate an additional stream of revenue for the gases they safely recover. This not only incentivizes safe recovery practices but also strengthens the local economy.”
The services additionally support larger businesses, including grocery stores, construction and demolition, commercial real estate, and banks.

A-Gas manages the full lifecycle of refrigerants, from recovery, reclamation, and re-entry into the market to refrigerant destruction services for when gases are at the end of their useful life.
