The Cool House: The Unofficial Cooling Destination of Climate Week NYC
This year, as Climate Week NYC celebrates the energy, impact, and action driving the global cooling transition, REEF invites you to experience one of the world's greatest climate success stories that you may have never heard of. Cool House will commemorate 10-years of the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol: a landmark international agreement that has transformed markets, accelerated innovation, and united nearly every nation on earth to advance sustainable cooling.
Cool House is more than an event, it's an immersive destination where the cooling community comes together to celebrate a decade of progress and inspire the next. Throughout the day, building owners, manufacturers, policymakers, engineers, contractors, technicians, educators, students, investors, and community leaders will explore the ideas, technologies, and leading partnerships reshaping the future of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVACR).
Visitors are invited to move freely through six interactive activation zones, each offering a different perspective on the cooling transition. Experience breakthrough technologies in the Innovative Cooling Showcase, discover the future HVACR workforce in the Technician & Training Studio, follow the circular refrigerant economy inside the Reclaim & Recovery Lab, hear real world implementation stories in the Owner-Operator Lounge, connect with local organizations in Our Community Hub, and celebrate a decade of global collaboration in The Kigali Celebration.
Designed as a place to engage rather than simply attend, Cool House combines interactive exhibits, live demonstrations, expert discussions, networking, and hands-on experiences into a full-day celebration of sustainable cooling. Drop in for twenty minutes or stay all day, there will always be something new to discover. The Montreal Protocol proved that global cooperation works. The Kigali Amendment proved that climate action can scale. Cool House celebrates the people, partnerships, and innovations turning those commitments into measurable impact and invites every visitor to shape the next decade of sustainable cooling, together.
