After over three years (yes, you read that correctly), HARDI’s efforts with the EPA have reached a significant milestone! In June 2023, HARDI secured a victory in federal court, leading to the EPA repealing the non-refillable cylinder ban and QR code tracking requirement. Just last week, the EPA finalized this win by officially removing these provisions from the Code of Federal Regulations, marking the end of a lengthy journey for the HVACR industry. However, this isn't the end of the story—we’re still awaiting the final HFC management and reclaim rule, where the QR code tracking requirement could return as early as 2025. HARDI continues to work tirelessly to combat these proposed regulations. 📖 Want to learn more?

California Energy Commission has adopted the 2025 Building Energy Efficiency Standard as presented, which amends California's Title 24 to new building standards. What does this all mean? Title 24 prescriptively bans the installation of fossil fuel systems and the adoption of California's Title 24 revisions removes consumer choice for water and space heating, which creates an adverse economic impact for California’s citizens, and violates the Environmental Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA). HARDI has opposed the amendments in both written and oral comments. Read HARDI's formal comments opposing the 2025 Building Energy Efficiency Standards. https://hubs.la/Q02PD0X00 What’s next? The adopted Energy Efficiency Standard now moves to the Building Standards Commission for adoption into the Building Code in December 2024, and go into effect January 1, 2026. #California #CaliforniaEnergyCommision #HVACR #Advocacy
