The use of R-22 refrigerant, also known as Freon, will be banned in the US starting January 1, 2020. This means that the chemical can no longer be imported or manufactured. R-22 has been widely used in residential air conditioners, but it has negative impacts on the ozone layer. In 2010, the EPA banned the production of new systems using R-22 and has now implemented a complete ban on the chemical. If your current air conditioner uses R-22, you can continue to service it, but it may become more difficult and expensive to find replacement refrigerant in the future. It may be more cost-effective to upgrade to a newer system that uses a different refrigerant, such as R-410A, which is approved by the EPA and has been used in Luxury Heating and Air units since 2010. If you’re not sure what type of refrigerant your system uses, you can check the label on the side of the unit. If you have an older system that uses R-22 and it’s running smoothly, you don’t need to replace it. However, if you have a leak or other issue, it may be worth considering an upgrade. Luxury Heating and Air can evaluate your current system, check for leaks, and help you weigh the costs and benefits of replacing it.
