Welcome to PourTalks, our webinar series where we talk about beverage equipment the way real people actually deal with it - practical, straightforward, and built for the facility managers responsible for keeping ice machines, soda dispensers, hot beverage equipment and frozen carbonated machines running every day across the Southeast, including Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
This session focuses on one of the biggest shifts happening in beverage equipment right now: the phaseout of R404A and the industry's move to R290. That's why we invite you to watch:
The New Refrigerant Reality
How the R404A Phaseout Affects Your Ice Machines, Soda Dispensers & Slushie Units
If you're responsible for managing beverage equipment across your locations, this session will walk you through why R404A is being phased out, what the switch to R290 actually means for safety, maintenance, and purchasing, and how to plan ahead so a refrigerant shortage never turns into an emergency. Everything is explained in practical terms you can apply across your properties.
Your host is Brian Miller, Regional Manager at BERCO. Brian has spent the last 10 years working hands-on with beverage equipment systems across convenience stores, hotels, bars, and quick service restaurants, and he's learned that no matter what logo is on the front of the machine, the mistakes and the best practices are pretty much the same everywhere. He's seen what happens when refrigerant transitions catch operators off guard - and how much smoother things go when managers plan ahead.
Why Watch This Session:
- Why R404A is being phased out and what that means for your existing equipment
- How R290 differs from R404A - and why it's not a simple gas swap
- The safety, service, and vendor considerations that come with propane-based refrigerant
- How to plan purchasing and lifecycle decisions now to avoid costly emergencies later
