Seems that is deemed environmentally unsafe, we will all be replacing our A/C units by 2020?

If so, ain't that a racket. If I were in the HVAC industry, I'd lobby to have refrigerate banned once per decade.

Began hearing about that happening a few years back, no need to replace as they have had drop-in replacements for a few years.

Kind of like when the patent ran out on R-12 for cars. Suddenly it was dangerous and had to be replaced with R-134 which had a new patent. Strange coincidence.

R-410A Replaced mine last summer and the new stuff works way better than R22 ever did. Much colder air and much more efficient unit as well.

I think that R-22 is the same as MRP.
