Get Free EPA 608 Certification with RefriTrak Pro
We're excited to announce our partnership with SkillCat, the leading online HVAC training platform. Now when you subscribe to RefriTrak Pro and above, you'll get one free EPA 608 Universal certification per quarter—combining professional compliance management with industry-recognized certification.
The Complete HVAC Professional Solution
Success in the HVAC industry requires two critical elements: proper certification and effective compliance management. Until now, technicians had to invest in these separately, often spending hundreds of dollars and managing multiple platforms. Our partnership with SkillCat changes that by bringing both together in one comprehensive package.
When you subscribe to RefriTrak Pro or Enterprise plans, you'll receive one complimentary EPA 608 Universal certification per quarter (a $30 value). This means you can get your team certified over time while simultaneously implementing the compliance management tools they'll need to maintain that certification throughout their careers.

Real Testimonials from SkillCat Users
"I was able to land a PM job just by using SkillCat to get my universal EPA. The trade school near me wanted $25k for a 9 month course. I could be subscribed to SkillCat for 208 years and it still be cheaper than trade school."
- John Gill, Electrician
"I am finally getting out of Hotel Maintenance. I'll be starting a new career at the end of this month servicing/maintaining a data center's HVAC systems. The pay is way higher. I could not have done it without SkillCat."
- Randy Karl Dunn, Maintenance
"This app is beyond amazing. So helpful and easy to study with how they set up the program. It teaches you exactly what you need to know and quizzes you midway through which I find extremely helpful. Overall great app, I highly recommend!"
