Twenty-thousand copies of the educational brochure, Professional A/C Service and Repair have been distributed through Mobile Air Conditioning Society member shops, association and corporate partners.
Copies also went to inquiries generated by media reports since it was first introduced at the 2003 MACS convention and trade show in January.
The brochure was the result of a collaboration of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) and the Mobile Air Conditioning Society (MACS) Worldwide. The publication provides guidelines for consumers when their mobile A/C system requires repair. It also covers the environmental importance of professional mobile A/C service and repair.
"MACS leadership is showing consumers that professional A/C repair protects the environment and saves them money," said Stephen Andersen, director of EPA Strategic Climate Projects. "MACS is also showing EPA how to secure ozone and climate protection in ways that support the prosperity of automotive repair businesses and their suppliers."
Copies of the brochure are available from MACS Worldwide by calling (215) 631-7020, or through email request at info@macsw.org.
