The question

After a required leak inspection on an R-123 chiller, what must the technician's documentation to the owner include?

• AThe lot number and AHRI 700 test result of any reclaimed refrigerant used
• BA signature from an EPA regional official
• CThe technician's certification test score
• DA certification that all visible and accessible parts were inspectedCorrect answer

Why “A certification that all visible and accessible parts were inspected” is correct

Leak inspection records must show the date, the method used, the location of each leak found, and a certification that all visible and accessible parts of the appliance were inspected. The technician provides this to the owner, who keeps it.

Why the other answers are wrong

• The lot number and AHRI 700 test result of any reclaimed refrigerant used — Reclaim lot numbers are not part of the leak inspection record.
• A signature from an EPA regional official — EPA does not sign leak inspection records.
• The technician's certification test score — Test scores are not part of the inspection record.
