Chris Forth - What is DOE2023 & How Does It Affect The Home Service Industry?

DOE's new efficiency requirements go into effect in 2023 and they’ll have a big impact on both new equipment sales and replacement or upgrade projects for existing equipment. 

The good news? There are new technologies available that can help you meet these requirements while also providing other benefits like improved comfort, indoor air quality, and lower energy costs.

HVAC business owners, including you, will need to be aware of these changes in order to stay compliant. Lucky for you, Chris Forth is here to help us understand what these changes mean.

Chris Forth is the Vice President of Regulatory, Codes & Environmental Affairs for the Ducted Systems division of Johnson Controls. As an HVAC industry veteran with over 30 years of experience, Chris is the perfect person to break down these new DOE regulations and their implications on HVAC and non-HVAC businesses.
