What is the Freon 22 Deadline for replacement?

There has been a lot of call asking if the home owner is going to be required to replace their central a/c system by January 2010, due to the Freon phase out. The phase out law is for the manufacturers, not the home owners. The phase out law states that the manufacturers can not manufacture new equipment after January 2010 that requires Freon 22. it also is the date that Freon manufacturers must start reducing the production of Freon 22, and over several years, reduce production even more. This date does not require the home owner to replace their system if it is not defective. However, if you are replacing the system, it is recommended to purchase the new r410a refrigerant, as due to the reduced production date, parts may not be available for systems that may still be in warranty in 8 years. So please be cautious.
