-
Important Regulatory Status (Phase-Out Warning)
The applications of R22 are being phased out in developed countries due to the compound’s Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of 0.034 and its high Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 0.17.
-
Global Demand: Despite the phase-out in developed nations, global use of R-22 continues to increase because of high demand in developing countries.
-
Compliance: This product is primarily intended for the servicing and maintenance of existing R22 systems in regions where its use is still permitted.
