Just learned one of my three air condition unit is leaking freon and apparently freon is the new "gold". My home warranty plan is making me pay for everything over $10 per pound and I need 8 pounds. Thant means I am currently locked into paying $640 for the freon. While doing my "homework", I also learned, due to EPA regulation, the "old" freon production has been cut drastically and that's the reason for high price. Additionally, in a few years the production of the "old" freon will completely stop and we will all need to replace our systems to units that will use R-410A refrigerant vs the old R-22 refrigerant. I'd hate to spend good money after bad money and now I am thinking of replacing this unit with one the new units. I can start by applying the $640 I would have spent on the "old" freon R-22.
If there are HVAC professionals out there reading this thread, can you give me some advise and what the going rate is to replace a 2 ton unit?
Thanks in advance for your help.
