If you’re running into air conditioning troubles, consider the following:
- The age of your system
- The type of your refrigerant your system contains (this information can be obtained from the sticker on your outside unit)
- Energy efficiency
When a service technician gives you the diagnosis of your air conditioning system, here are some facts about R22 to help you make an informed decision.

Remember:
If your system contains R-22 it will be costly to repair, however it can be done, depending on the AC issue.
R-22 systems are most commonly replaced by an R410-A system.
Don’t let cowboys recommend a replacement until the root of your issue is found. Only then can you weigh the pros and cons.
