Discover why R-22 refrigerant recycling is important for cost savings, compliance, and efficiency. Refrigerant Services LLC makes recycling simple, legal, and profitable.
The R-22 Phaseout and What It Means for You
If you manage commercial properties, HVAC equipment, or refrigerant inventory, you’ve likely heard about the EPA’s R-22 phaseout. Since January 1, 2020, the production and import of R-22 refrigerant (HCFC-22) has been banned in the U.S. While many systems still rely on it, the supply is shrinking—making leftover cylinders both a compliance risk and a wasted asset if they’re left sitting around.
That’s where R-22 recycling comes in. Instead of paying for costly disposal or risking fines, recycling gives you a safe and responsible way to manage surplus refrigerant.
Why R-22 Recycling Is So Important
1. Cost Savings Over Disposal
Disposing of R-22 improperly can result in hefty EPA fines and additional hazardous waste fees. Recycling offers a safe and cost-effective alternative, helping you avoid unnecessary expenses.
2. Cash Back Through Buyback Programs
At Refrigerant Services LLC, we don’t just recycle—we also buy back your R-22. Instead of letting it go to waste, you can sell it back and recover value from old cylinders.
3. Avoiding Compliance Penalties
The EPA requires that refrigerants like R-22 are handled properly. Venting is illegal, and improper storage or disposal can lead to steep penalties. Recycling ensures full compliance with regulations.
4. Efficiency and Space Management
Unused or expired R-22 cylinders often take up valuable space in warehouses, shops, and mechanical rooms. Recycling frees up that space, keeping your operations more organized and efficient.
