Charles D. Jones Co. announced that Jon Melchi, director of government affairs for Heating, Air-conditioning, and Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI), will speak on the latest regulatory actions and legislative issues impacting the HVACR industry in a seminar at the Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway.
The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) officially filed a motion for a stay with the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals requesting a delay of the May 1 compliance date for regional efficiency standards.
Heating, Air-conditioning, and Refrigeration Distributors International (HARDI) recently announced that while HVACR average distributor sales declined 1.8 percent in December 2012, they increased 5.6 percent for the year.
“We do not object to the whole settlement. We don’t object to APGA’s ability to settle with the department on the matter of furnaces,” said Jon Melchi, director of government affairs, HARDI. “We reject the premise that the case should be dismissed outright because of that settlement. We believe the judge should allow us to continue our case as it relates to the direct final rule process which established these standards, including air conditioners.”

Circuit Court of Appeals.
