What You Need To Know
The refrigerant most commonly used in today's heat pump and air
conditioning systems is an HCFC known as R-22. The EPA
(Environmental Protection Agency) has created a schedule to
gradually phase out the use of this refrigerant. The process has
already begun.
Prices of R-22 will gradually increase as the phaseout progresses.
Substitute refrigerants will become more commonly implemented in the
installation of new systems. Make sure your contractor is knowledgeable
about the new refrigerants and always make sure your contractor is EPA
certified. Read more on the phase out of R-22.
