On Jan. 1, 2017 the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) revised its definition of “refrigerant,” extending regulations for Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) to include non-ozone-depleting substitute refrigerants. While specifically targeting hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which have extremely high global warming potential, the regulatory change additionally applies to a host of substitute refrigerants.
