Freon Ban Help From Trained Experts
Have questions about the recent Freon Ban? Our experts are trained and trusted on Freon and can help your navigate the ban.
What does the ban mean?
It is now illegal to manufacture or import Freon (also known as HCFC-22, R-22 or hydrochloroflurocarbon 22) as of January 1, 2020.
What are your next steps?
If your A/C was built after 2010, it uses a more earth-friendly refrigerant, since an EPA ban on manufacturing Freon-based systems has been in effect for almost 10 years. If it was built before, talk to an expert to see if you need it inspected or replaced. We have more information about the ban here.
