HVAC Refrigerant Regulations Case Study

A policyholder wasn’t sure what to do after a storm reportedly caused hail impacts to their residential split system. Their contractor provided an estimate for a full replacement HVAC system, incorrectly citing EPA refrigerant regulations about R-22 years after they took effect. The adjuster wanted an objective expert to verify the hail damage and the contractor’s estimate before deciding how to settle the claim.

When the policyholder and adjuster had follow-up questions and reported related damages a few months later, the HVACi team again provided conclusive evidence about the state of the system as well as EPA resources to show why the R-22 rules didn’t apply in this circumstance.
