California orders only must purchase R-404A Reclaimed. Contractors must service existing equipment with reclaimed refrigerant per California law. As of January 1, 2025, California Senate Bill (SB) 1206 prohibits the sale of bulk hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) with a global warming potential (GWP) greater than 2,200. This reclaimed cylinder is the SB-1206-compliant option for California.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need reclaimed R-404A in California?
Under SB 1206 (effective Jan 1, 2025), California prohibits the sale of bulk HFCs with GWP over 2,200, and contractors must service existing equipment with reclaimed refrigerant. R-404A's high GWP means the reclaimed cylinder is the compliant option.
Is reclaimed as good as virgin?
This reclaimed R-404A is processed and certified to AHRI-700 purity for reliable service of existing systems. For non-CA/NY orders, the virgin R-404A cylinder is also available.
