HFC Phasedown Implementation

Our Commitment
America’s HVACR manufacturers are committed to phasing down the use of high-global warming potential refrigerants.
AHRI and the Alliance for Responsible Atmospheric Policy, along with key environmental advocacy groups, support S.2754, the American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act. Through this legislation, we can ensure continued American technology preeminence, while promoting jobs and economic growth.
