In a highly anticipated decision dated October 16, an ANSI appeals panel sided with NPGA to overturn the publication of addendum “j” to ASHRAE standard 62.2. If allowed to be published, addendum “j” would have banned the installation of unvented heaters in a 62.2 compliant residential building. This comes as a major victory for NPGA and its members who can continue to offer these popular safe and efficient supplemental room heaters to their customers without fear of a pending prohibition. Thanks to all of the industry allies who worked very hard to achieve this important judgment, especially Dave Delaquila who represented NPGA and led the coalition.
