R-22 Retrofit
Calculator

R-22 is discontinued and costs $50-$150/lb. Calculate your options: retrofit to a drop-in replacement, or replace the system entirely.

R-22 Phase-Out: Your Options

R-22 (Freon) production ended January 1, 2020. Remaining supply comes from reclaimed refrigerant, driving prices from $10/lb to $50-$150/lb. If your system uses R-22 and needs a recharge, you have three options: recharge with expensive R-22, retrofit to a drop-in replacement (R-407C, MO99, R-422D), or replace the entire system with a new R-410A or R-454B unit.

FAQ

Can I still buy R-22?
Yes, reclaimed R-22 is still available but expensive ($50-$150/lb). New production ended in 2020. Prices increase every year as supply dwindles.
What can replace R-22?
Drop-in alternatives include R-407C, MO99 (R-438A), and R-422D. They work in most R-22 systems with an oil and filter drier change. Full system replacement uses R-410A or the newer R-454B.
