Frequently Asked Questions
How many questions are on the EPA 608 exam?
The EPA 608 exam has two sections: a Core section (25 questions) and a type-specific section (25 questions — Type I, II, III, or all three for Universal). You need 70% on each section to pass. A Universal score means you answered all four sections at 70%+.
What refrigerants are covered on the EPA 608 exam?
The EPA 608 exam covers R-22 (HCFC), R-410A, R-32, and R-134a, including each refrigerant's ODP (ozone depletion potential) and GWP (global warming potential). You also need to know the Section 608 venting prohibition and the phase-out of R-22 production, which ended January 1, 2020.
Can I take the EPA 608 exam online?
Yes — the EPA 608 exam can be taken online through approved certifying organizations including ESCO Institute, NATE, Mainstream Engineering, and HVAC Excellence. Some offer proctored online exams you can complete from home.
Do I need EPA 608 certification to work on HVAC equipment?
Yes. Section 608 of the Clean Air Act requires EPA certification for any technician who purchases or handles refrigerants. Type I covers small appliances, Type II covers high-pressure systems, Type III covers low-pressure systems, and Universal covers all three.
