The HVACR Advocacy Center
ISSUES AFFECTING YOU & RESOURCES TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
HARDI is committed to tracking key industry issues, educating both our members and elected officials on issues that affect the HVACR channel, and providing outlets to make your voice heard at every level of government.
Why Our Advocacy Matters
The HVACR industry is at the center of critical conversations on energy efficiency, decarbonization, and workforce development. As regulations evolve, HARDI engages with policymakers to ensure that new standards support—not hinder—the ability of distributors to provide reliable, high-performing products while sustaining business growth. Our advocacy is rooted in a commitment to both environmental responsibility and economic prosperity, ensuring that innovation and industry success go hand in hand.
Our Approach: Federal & State Engagement
Federal: We work with Congress, agencies, and industry partners to shape policies affecting HVACR distribution—advocating for practical HFC phasedown implementation and pro-growth tax policy.
State: As energy and decarbonization policy shifts to the states, HARDI tracks legislation and engages policymakers to represent HVACR distributors and suppliers.
Congressional Fly-in
How it works: We brief you on the policies that matter. We arrange the meetings with your representatives. You come to D.C. ready for conversations that build lasting relationships, influence policy, and make a real difference. It really is that simple.
