How do I stay up-to-date with regulatory compliance requirements for refrigerants in HVAC applications?

Staying informed about regulatory compliance requirements is crucial when selecting refrigerants for HVAC applications. Regulations such as the Montreal Protocol, EU F-Gas Regulation, and US EPA’s SNAP program govern the use of refrigerants and their environmental impact. It’s essential to monitor updates and changes to these regulations to ensure that the selected refrigerant meets current and future compliance requirements. Consulting with industry associations, such as ASHRAE, and staying informed about manufacturer guidelines and industry best practices can help ensure regulatory compliance.
