Description
R-22, also known as Chlorodifluoromethane, has been the industry standard in residential and commercial HVAC systems for decades. While its production is being phased out due to environmental regulations, R-22 remains critical for servicing and maintaining millions of existing systems worldwide. With proven reliability and system compatibility, R-22 continues to support the performance of legacy equipment.
Key Features and Benefits:
✅ Proven long-term performance: Decades of use in HVAC and refrigeration systems have established R-22 as one of the most stable and reliable refrigerants ever developed.
✅ Legacy system compatibility: Specifically designed for older systems, R-22 ensures seamless operation without the need for costly retrofitting or component changes.
✅ Efficient cooling power: Delivers consistent, powerful cooling performance in both residential and commercial environments.
✅ Low system stress: Operates under moderate pressure and works with traditional mineral oils, reducing wear and extending system lifespan.

AAA Experience and another Satisfied Customer As anyone else would be, I was a little concerned purchasing this material online, but I took the chance and to my surprise this was made an extremely easy transaction. The shipping was how they said it would be, quick and timely, and they sent me the tracking information as soon as they had it available. The product came in and passed a simple PT test, and has since been installed in two very large pieces of equipment and is performing flawlessly. We will definitely be purchasing from this group again in the future. Thanks again
