Due to EPA mandates, this year marks the rollout of a requirement to shift from refrigerant R-410A to options such as R-32 and R-454B. These options are considered to have lower Global Warming Potential (GWP). The American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act has caused the EPA to release this guidance, with the required shift happening this year. "This shift is making a mark on the industry because the new refrigerant options are more costly. The good news is that R-32 is considerably more efficient, and you can anticipate that you'll have fewer refrigerant charges," said the team at Precision Air.

Secondly, Precision Air is addressing energy cost spikes that are anticipated in response to the tariffs put into place by the current administration. "Summer utility bills are likely to reach 12-year highs," said the team at Precision Air.

Current estimates indicate that the price of heating and cooling systems could increase by up to 30% due to tariffs on materials such as aluminum, steels, and electronic components that are utilized in HVAC manufacturing here in the U.S.

Precision Air has some advice for consumers. "Do all the things you'd normally do to conserve energy this summer. Keep your thermostat set at a responsible temperature, and only run your electronics when you need to. If your HVAC needs maintenance or repairs, you'll want to go ahead and schedule now before the prices go any higher," said a spokesperson for Precision Air.
