Will we still be able to use our existing recovery pumps and vacuum pumps, or do we need to upgrade equipment to handle these new refrigerants?

[@HVAC-TV]

I understand you will need to upgrade. Most on the market today are designed for the A2L refrigerants. Thanks for asking!

How soon can a residential owner in Massachusetts expect R454 installations to be available?

[@HVAC-TV]

Good question I’m not sure. It would depend on when manufacturers start releasing equipment. My guess would be early to to mid 2024? Thanks for watching!

​@@HVAC-TVI'm in the same boat, looking to do geothermal, know they have 454b in Europe don't see putting a 410a system when it's going to be obsolete

[@tomkacandes8286]

As of 12/2023, seems ABCO-Daikin have R-32 units coming into stock progressively now. R-410A is already a bad bet in the 5+ year view and VRF the worst bet since it needs a lot of refrigerant per ton, most points of failure.
