Overview

Why is the cost of maintaining your A/C system on the rise?

The U.S. Clean Air Act Amendment has imposed a number of rules and regulations on the production, handling, and use of ozone-depleting substances like those used in comfort cooling systems. One of those refrigerants, R-22, has been used for several decades and is now scheduled for complete phase-out in the U.S. It is this phase-out that is driving up the cost of R-22 system replacement, service, and repairs.

What are the options for residential and commercial A/C equipment owners?

Until today, environmentally conscious A/C equipment owners had very few choices when it came to a zero-ozone-depleting option. The only widespread option available was R-410A. This product cannot be used in existing R-22 designed systems and has a limited application range. Since replacing an R-22 system with an R-410A system requires a complete indoor and outdoor unit replacement, this option is very expensive and in some cases virtually impractical. Now, with ICOR’s NU-22B replacement refrigerant, contractors and equipment owners can easily and economically convert their existing A/C units into zero-ozone depleting systems.

How easy is it?

Converting your existing R-22-based system to ICOR’s zero-ozone depleting NU-22B does not require any major system adjustments or modifications. However, refrigerant handling can pose a number of safety hazards and, if improperly installed, can cause severe damage to the A/C system. Refrigerants should only be used by certified HVAC technicians.

For help locating a qualified A/C service provider in your area, call ICOR’s technical support hotline at toll-free 866-433-8324.

With NU-22B you can save time, money, and do your part to reduce ozone depletion.
