We are now only a year away from a total ban on R-22 and other hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). And the European industry has to act fast to get the message across to customers.

Although the use of virgin HCFCs was banned four years ago, many have kept their R-22 equipment running by using reclaimed R-22 originating from other plants that have already been replaced or converted. The high cost of reclaimed R-22 — often twice the price of replacement refrigerants — has not deterred its continued use, but in just under 12 months, it will be illegal to top up any refrigeration, air conditioning, or heat pump system with this or any other HCFC. The time for procrastination is over as this pressing issue is well and truly upon us.
