Starting January 1, 2025, the EPA’s new refrigerant mandate will phase out R-410A in favor of more eco-friendly options like R-454B and R-32. This shift aims to reduce the global warming potential (GWP) of HVAC systems. Homeowners should be aware that while current systems using R-410A will still be serviceable, new units will become more expensive—up to 30%—due to the need for new designs and materials. Transitioning before 2025 can save you significant costs.
We offer free estimates for complete system replacements and up to $2800 in instant rebates on all qualifying systems.
Key Impacts:
- Environmental Benefits:
- Energy Efficiency:
- Increased Costs:
- Potential Delays:
New refrigerants have a much lower GWP, helping to reduce carbon footprints.
Upgraded systems will lead to better performance and lower energy bills.
New systems will cost more due to the required changes in design and materials.
Supply chain disruptions may cause delays in getting new systems.
Recommendations:
- Upgrade Before 2025:
- Consult with Experts:
Avoid higher costs and ensure compliance by replacing older systems now.
Ensure your technician is certified to handle the new refrigerants and navigate the transition smoothly.
