Plant Replacement

R22 Refrigerant Ban and Its Impact

Why must we change?

Plant Replacement

Replacing your air conditioning (AC) unit can be necessary for various reasons, including age, energy efficiency, or damage. Give us a call as we can help you to develop a like-for-like or totally new, more energy-efficient plan.

There are two options for a new AC system

Option 1

You replace your old system with new AC equipment.

Option 2

Alternative modern refrigerant is used to top them up. This will normally involve having to replace parts of the current AC system.

Things to consider when looking at plant replacement:

Age

AC units typically last around 10-15 years. Older units may become less efficient and more prone to breakdowns.

Energy Efficiency

Newer AC units are generally more energy-efficient, which can save you money and the environment.

High Repair Costs

If you're spending a lot on repairs for your AC unit, it might be more cost-effective to replace it with a new one.

Lack of Spare Parts & Refrigerant

As your AC unit ages, it may become difficult to find replacement parts for repairs of older units. Also, as of 2015, it was made illegal to use Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), including the ozone-depleting refrigerant gas R22, in refrigeration. More and more refrigerants over time will become obsolete or illegal.

Consider Your Budget

New AC units can vary in price, so determine how much you can afford to spend, and Impact will provide a comprehensive solution to fit your budget and needs
