Zusammenfassung:	A method of monitoring a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system for refrigerant leak. The method includes monitoring, by a controller, operation of the HVAC system and determining, using a plurality of leak detectors, whether refrigerant within the HVAC system is leaking. Responsive to a positive determination in the determining step, receiving, by the controller, a refrigerant leak warning signal and modifying, by the controller, operation of the HVAC system to prevent the refrigerant from entering an enclosed space.
