Ref LeakLog helps small HVAC/R contractors manage refrigerant records and track leak-repair requirements for covered equipment under 40 CFR Part 84 Subpart C. When a technician logs a refrigerant top-off, it calculates the leak rate, flags threshold exceedances, and tracks repair deadlines. It also monitors chronic-leaker totals and keeps service records organized for export. Built for one-to-eight-truck shops, $29–$89/mo.

Could you build this?

Partial The record-keeping and leak-rate calculations are codeable, but correct EPA 40 CFR Part 84 compliance logic requires regulatory expertise and the product's value depends on being accurate.

What it would actually take: The core is a CRUD app for technician logs and equipment, plus threshold and deadline calculations and PDF reports. A real version needs someone who has parsed the regulation's exact thresholds, exemptions and recordkeeping rules, validated with HVAC compliance experts or auditors. Liability for wrong compliance calculations makes that validation the hard part.
