As the year comes to a close, so does an important opportunity for homeowners considering upgrading their HVAC systems. Starting in January 2025, new federal regulations on HVAC systems will take effect, requiring an upgrade to a more environmentally friendly refrigerant. While this change is a positive step for sustainability, it also means increased costs for HVAC installations in the new year. Here’s what you need to know and why now is the perfect time to act:
What are the New Federal Regulations?
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has mandated a shift away from older refrigerants in favor of newer, more eco-friendly options with lower global warming potential (GWP). This change supports environmental sustainability but comes with stricter manufacturing standards and higher costs for compliant HVAC systems.
How Will This Affect Installation Costs?
- Equipment Costs Will Rise: New systems designed for the updated refrigerants are more expensive to manufacture.
- Installation Costs May Increase: HVAC contractors will require new tools, certifications, and handling processes for the updated refrigerants, potentially increasing labor costs.
- Refrigerant Costs Will Change: Older refrigerants will become less available and more expensive over time.
By upgrading your system now, you can lock in current prices and avoid the added expenses of 2025 installations.
