EPA Proposes New SNAP Rules to Include A2L Refrigerants
2020-06-19
On Friday June 12, the Environmental Protection Agency released a new proposed rule under the Significant New Alternatives Policy program to allow the use of certain A2L refrigerants in equipment that meets new safety standards. The proposal did not delist any existing refrigerants; however, it did remove an aerosol for use in fire suppression. This proposed rule moves the industry one step closer to using lower flammability refrigerants in future air-conditioning and refrigeration applications.
