AHRI launched an interactive US map showing state codes for A2L refrigerants, alongside a video series on low-GWP refrigerant transition.

The transition to A2Ls will likely serve as an interim solution. Europe has already embraced propane in certain heat pump systems, and the U.S. may follow suit, albeit with a different low-GWP refrigerant.

As the industry continues to gray and the demand for HVAC services continues to rise, recruiting, training, and retaining young talent is crucial to the trade’s future.

Tristam Coffin played a key role in facilitating Whole Foods' transition to natural refrigerants and currently provides guidance for other companies seeking sustainable solutions.

A new technology, Crescendō, uses a regenerative cooling cycle to capture energy lost in cooling systems, resulting in significant energy savings.

A-Gas and Trane Supply are partnering in order to make the reclamation process easier for customers.

While there was an increase of more than 40% in the total volume of HFCs reclaimed in 2022, the amount is likely not enough to meet demand.

The HVACR industry will undergo numerous changes in 2024, including a large cut in HFC production, the introduction of new refrigerants, and the penultimate year to legally install R-410A split systems.

Continuous and rapid cycling is hard on a compressor, but the use of a simple time delay relay can mitigate the risk of compressor failure.

The HVACR industry was initially surprised by a date-of-install requirement, mandating installation of certain equipment by January 1, 2025, but EPA extended sell-through period to January 1, 2026.
