This presentation will review the latest U.S. federal and California state refrigerant regulations and the prescribed phase-down schedules for high-GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerant gases used in small commercial HVAC and refrigeration systems that are typically found in restaurants. Low-GWP alternative gases and systems (Class A2L and A3) and the associated energy implications will be discussed.

Participants will be able to:

1. Specify refrigeration and HVAC equipment that will be in compliance with State and Federal refrigerant and energy efficiency regulations.
2. Specify equipment that uses the most current adopted low-GWP refrigerants.
3. Use no-cost, online, utility resources to locate energy efficient refrigeration equipment, calculate ROI, and receive incentives under the CA Energy Wise Instant Rebates program.
