Industries are constantly evolving to become more competitive, to deliver a better product or service, and to align themselves with more eco-friendly and efficient initiatives – and the commercial air conditioning in NJ industry is no different. Part of this includes the phase-out of R-22 – here is a guide from our commercial HVAC contractors.
Why is R-22 Being Phased Out? The Montreal Protocol and Clean Air Act of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is cutting the production of R-22 (a hydrofluorocarbon linked to the depletion of the ozone layer) in favor of the introduction of more environmentally-friendly coolants. Since 2015, there’s been less and less R-22 produced and production will be cut to 9 million pounds this year and only 4 million pounds in 2019. In 2020, production will stop completely, and no imports will be made into the USA. Due to this reduction in supply, recharging R-22 air conditioning systems has increased significantly. Even with some companies stockpiling the refrigerant, the fact is that availability and price is an issue – so what should businesses do?
