Is decarbonization the biggest challenge or the biggest opportunity for the HVAC industry?

In this episode of Cool Air, Hot Takes, hosts Charlie Jelen and Dan Gentry are joined by Molly Dee-Ramasamy, Director of Deep Carbon Reduction at JB&B, to unpack what decarbonization really means for buildings, systems, and the people designing them. From electrification and grid impacts to policy shifts and heat recovery, they dive into what’s changing, what’s working, and what HVAC pros need to know to stay ahead.

We also discuss:

• HVAC Headlines: The EPA reconsiders key refrigerant phase-out rules under the AIM Act, and new research finds poor restroom ventilation can increase exposure to airborne bacteria like E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus… designers, take note.
• Is It Hot or Cold: Charlie and Dan bring back Hot or Cold, but this time, the decarb edition!
• Stat of the Day:  Top performing S&P 500 stocks over the last 20 years. Can you do better than Dan?
