If you’re a homeowner or business owner in\u00a0<\/span>Reno or Sparks<\/b>, this change affects your future HVAC upgrades\u2014and it\u2019s a great opportunity to improve energy efficiency and reduce environmental impact.<\/span><\/p>\n What Is R-454B and Why Does It Matter?<\/b><\/p>\n R-454B is a next-generation refrigerant designed to meet strict environmental standards while boosting <\/span>HVAC<\/span><\/a> system performance. It\u2019s a blend of R-32 and R-1234yf with a\u00a0<\/span>Global Warming Potential (GWP) of just 466<\/b>, well below the EPA\u2019s threshold of 700. That\u2019s a\u00a0<\/span>75% reduction<\/b>\u00a0compared to R-410A!<\/span><\/p>\n At\u00a0<\/span>Ross Heating and Air Conditioning<\/b><\/a>, we\u2019re ready to help you transition to this cleaner, more efficient solution.<\/span><\/p>\n Why Upgrade to R-454B?<\/b><\/p>\n Switching to R-454B comes with several benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n \u2705<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Energy Efficiency<\/b>\u00a0\u2013 Systems using R-454B operate more efficiently, which helps lower your monthly utility bills.<\/span> What Homeowners in Reno and Northern Nevada Need to Know<\/b><\/p>\n If your current system was installed\u00a0<\/span>before 2010<\/b>, it likely uses\u00a0<\/span>R-22<\/b>, which is already banned.
