Understanding the Freon Changeover

R410A has been a popular choice for residential and commercial HVAC systems for many years. However, with rising concerns about its impact on global warming, the industry is shifting to R32, a refrigerant that is not only more efficient but also has a significantly lower global warming potential. We are committed to ensuring that our customers adapt to this change smoothly.

How Will This Change Affect You?

As the sale of R410A comes to an end, it's essential to understand how this impacts your HVAC systems. If you have an existing system that uses R410A, you will not be required to replace it immediately. However, as R410A supplies dwindle, service and maintenance will become more challenging. Our heating repair services here at Aaron Childress can help determine if transitioning to a new system is the best choice for you.

Benefits of Switching to R32

R32 offers several advantages over R410A. It has an approximate 30% lower global warming potential, making it a more sustainable option. Additionally, R32 is more energy-efficient, which can help reduce your monthly energy costs. Our team at Aaron Childress Air Conditioning and Heating highly recommends considering R32 when looking for new HVAC installations.
