Regulatory Forecast: Refrigerant Rulemaking in 2019

As refrigerant regulations continue to evolve, they will impact commercial and industrial refrigeration and AC applications — regionally, nationally and globally. The E360 webinar will present the latest regulatory updates and will offer extensive insights on how to prepare for what’s on the horizon. The “Regulatory Forecast: Refrigerant Rulemaking in 2019” will focus on these key points: recent rulings have changed the scope of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Significant, how the California Air Resources Board (CARB) continues to leverage the original SNAP ruling as the foundation for its regional hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant phase-down efforts, update on the potential for U.S. ratification of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, status of the standards governing charge limits and safe use of A2L and A3 refrigerants, including the potential impacts on building codes, how the vacating of SNAP Rule 20 potentially impacts Section 608 rules for governing leak repair and maintenance requirements and availability of new refrigerants with low global warming potential (GWP).
