R-22 freon

As of January 1, 2020, R-22 will no longer be manufactured in the U.S or imported.

What does that mean to homeowners?
If your A/C system or pool heat pump was installed before 2010, it most likely uses R-22 Freon.

  • According to A/C suppliers, inventory is dwindling
  • As limited supply shrinks, Freon prices will continue to increase

Homeowners facing inadequate A/C cooling or pool heating due to low Freon levels will:

  • Choose to install a new R-410 A/C or Pool Heat Pump
  • or

  • Choose to delay, and
    • Pay higher and higher Freon cost until limited supply is depleted
    • Find a source for re-conditioned supply, if available
    • Undergo costly process to retrofit to use refrigerant substitute

First used nearly 70 years ago, R-22 became the main refrigerant for Air Conditioning and Pool Heat Pumps, but has since been found to contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer. The EPA mandated its phase-out; as of January 1, R-22 units/systems can no longer be sold.
