As of Friday, January 17 2025, the the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) is currently not enforcing the prohibition on refrigerant sales as previously announced. What this means for you: As of 1/17/25, you can purchase and use the following refrigerants in New York State without concern: R-404A, R-438A, R-507 & R-422B refrigerants.
Meier Supply has been working closely with Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI). HARDI is in communication with its legal team and the State in an effort to extend the prohibition date. While this is a temporary pause in enforcement, we have not received official details on any permanent changes to the regulation. We will keep you informed as new information becomes available.
