Apparently New York City has its own Refrigeration Code and its own licensing exam and certification. This boook is aimed at people who are trying to get that certification. It's really not as practical as the Preston "EPA Certification" book for people outside of NYC. However, it is a very good basic refrigeration manual. Really well organized and with lots of good practice questions on each topic. A primer that would be helpful for anyone, but especially those in Manhattan.

I bought this book for less then fifteen dollars and it was the best fifteen dollars I've spent. I recommended to two of my co-workers. The book is easy to follow; has plenty of diagrams, illustrations and details to understand what's going on. The best part is the quizzes at the end of each section. The quizzes make sure you're paying attention. I'm an architect by training, and now I'm pretty confident that I can follow along with a conversation about a refrigeration system.

This is the newest edition of the Arco License Preparation Training Manual. It is an excellent source for theory and operation of Ammonia and Toxic Refrigeration Systems. An excellent aid with vital information to help with your preparation for your State Refrigeration Engineer License Exam.

Contents are not just specific to New York City exams and regulations, they also apply to New Jersey as well as most other State's Refrigeration Engineer Licensing Examinations.

Many of the drawings and technical information have been absent from most technical manuals for years. This is a great single source to access all that lost information. It also includes the fundamentals of Absorption Refrigeration Plant Operation and Maintenance.

Many State exams include questions that are taken directly from this publication. (Answers to sample questions are included).

I studied this book it has good information but not for the new york city exam, out of all the practice questions maybe 1 was on the exam, they should updfate or at least no whats on the exams .
