Track home heating and cooling costs and rules in the United States. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: EPA refrigerant phase-down rules, R-410A and R-22 restrictions, A2L transition deadlines and equipment sales rules with dates; refrigerant price moves of 15 percent or more and shortages; equipment price increases and availability changes at Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Daikin, Goodman, Rheem, York, Mitsubishi, Bosch and Fujitsu; published repair and replacement cost benchmarks; EPA 608 and A2L contractor certification and handling rules; federal 25C and 25D credit and utility and state rebate changes for heat pumps and AC; DOE regional efficiency standard changes; recalls and warranty changes; and contractor fraud, upsell and emergency pricing enforcement actions. Prefer the EPA, DOE, manufacturer notices, distributor price bulletins, utility rebate pages, state attorneys general and established home reporting; ignore contractor marketing. Put the rule, manufacturer or program first in the title with the number and the effect on a typical repair or replacement. Use high severity for a phase-down deadline within 90 days, a price increase of 10 percent or more at a top-5 manufacturer, a rebate of $1,000 or more, or a fraud alert. Return no more than 6 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what changed, who it affects, the cost effect, what to do, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
