Washington SB5438 aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from hydrofluorocarbons by phasing out their use in various applications and promoting.

Washington SB5438 seeks to mitigate climate change by addressing the significant impact of hydrofluorocarbons, potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning. The bill prohibits the sale and distribution of products containing hydrofluorocarbons with high global warming potentials, with phased restrictions starting in 2027. It mandates the Department of Ecology to transition to low and ultra-low global warming potential refrigerants by 2035.
