R-410A The Standard for Existing Residential Systems
R-410A remains the dominant refrigerant in millions of residential and light commercial HVAC systems installed between 2010 and 2025. Two options are available: a standard virgin-sealed 25 lb cylinder priced at $278 and a Honeywell-branded 25 lb virgin-sealed cylinder at $280. Both deliver the same purity and performance the Honeywell cylinder simply carries the OEM manufacturer's branding for shops and contractors who specify brand provenance. R-410A is a high-pressure HFC blend that operates at pressures significantly above legacy refrigerants like R-22. Because of the EPA AIM Act phasedown, R-410A production quotas are shrinking annually starting in 2025. Prices are rising and supply is tightening. Contractors and distributors who stock up now protect their operations against future shortages and price increases. R-410A cannot be used in new equipment manufactured after 2025, but existing systems can continue to be recharged and serviced with it indefinitely. GWP: 2,088 | Safety Class: A1 (Non-flammable) | Best For: Residential central AC and heat pumps built after 2010R-454B The Required Refrigerant for 2025-and-Newer Equipment
R-454B (also sold as Opteon XL41 by Honeywell) is the EPA-designated primary replacement for R-410A in all new residential HVAC equipment manufactured after January 1, 2025. A 20 lb cylinder is available in this store, and it is now essential inventory for any contractor servicing or commissioning post-2025 equipment. R-454B carries a Global Warming Potential of just 466 roughly 78% lower than R-410A and is fully compliant with AIM Act HFC phasedown requirements. Its thermodynamic properties allow near-drop-in performance in systems designed for it, with improved energy efficiency. Important note: R-454B carries an A2L safety classification, which means it is mildly flammable. Technicians must use A2L-rated service equipment and follow proper ventilation procedures. Any shop that installs or services modern HVAC equipment needs this refrigerant stocked today. GWP: 466 | Safety Class: A2L (Mildly flammable) | Best For: New residential HVAC systems manufactured 2025 onwardR-22 Reclaimed Supply for Legacy Systems
R-22 is no longer manufactured or imported in the United States under the Montreal Protocol phase-out. However, tens of millions of HVAC units installed before 2010 still run on R-22 and need it for routine service and recharging. A 30 lb cylinder of certified reclaimed R-22 is available here at $369, meeting AHRI 700 purity standards and full EPA compliance. This cylinder is for licensed technicians only. EPA Section 608 certification is required to purchase R-22 in any quantity. Reclaimed R-22 passes through a certified reclamation process that restores it to virgin-equivalent purity so contractors get the same performance as new R-22 without any legal or compliance concerns. This is the correct, legal, and only available way to service R-22 systems in the United States today. Availability: Reclaimed only | Certification Required: EPA 608 | Best For: Pre-2010 residential and commercial systemsR-404A Low-Temperature Commercial Refrigeration
R-404A is the workhorse refrigerant for medium- and low-temperature commercial refrigeration. Supermarket display cases, walk-in coolers, ice machines, and cold storage facilities across the country rely on R-404A. A 24 lb cylinder is stocked here for contractors maintaining this equipment. R-404A carries a high GWP of 3,922 and is being phased down under the AIM Act, but it remains critical for servicing the enormous installed base of commercial refrigeration equipment still in operation. No new commercial refrigeration system should be commissioned with R-404A, but maintaining existing equipment legally requires continued access to it. Contractors servicing supermarkets, restaurants, and food distribution facilities need this refrigerant available. GWP: 3,922 | Safety Class: A1 | Best For: Commercial display cases, walk-in coolers, ice machinesR-407A Low-Temperature Commercial HVAC and Refrigeration
R-407A is a 25 lb cylinder refrigerant designed for low-temperature commercial HVAC and refrigeration applications at $539. It offers a lower GWP profile compared to R-404A while maintaining compatibility with many commercial refrigeration systems. R-407A is used in grocery refrigeration, convenience store equipment, and cold room applications where medium-to-low evaporating temperatures are required. For contractors working on large commercial refrigeration accounts, R-407A serves as a transitional refrigerant option that supports existing equipment while reducing the overall GWP burden of the system. GWP: Lower than R-404A | Safety Class: A1 | Best For: Commercial refrigeration systems requiring low evaporating temperaturesR-407C R-22 Commercial Retrofit Solution
R-407C is a 25 lb factory-sealed cylinder available at $270, formulated as a near-drop-in replacement for R-22 in commercial air conditioning systems. Unlike R-410A, R-407C operates at similar pressure ranges to R-22, which makes it a practical retrofit option for commercial buildings looking to extend the useful life of existing R-22 equipment without full system replacement. Building managers and commercial HVAC contractors use R-407C to convert R-22 systems while keeping the original compressor, heat exchangers, and lineset intact. This avoids the significant capital cost of a full system replacement while bringing the refrigerant into EPA compliance. Oil compatibility should always be confirmed before retrofitting most R-407C conversions require an oil change alongside the refrigerant conversion. GWP: 1,774 | Safety Class: A1 | Best For: R-22 system retrofits in commercial buildingsR-413A Eco-Friendly HVAC Solution
R-513A is a 30 lb cylinder available at $539, positioned as an eco-friendly HVAC solution for systems requiring an environmentally improved refrigerant option. R-513A is a non-flammable HFO/HFC blend with a significantly lower GWP than older HFC refrigerants. It is used in chiller applications and medium-temperature systems where lower environmental impact is a priority. For facilities with sustainability mandates or LEED certification requirements, R-513A provides a compliant, non-flammable refrigerant option that satisfies both operational and environmental criteria. Safety Class: A1 | Best For: Chiller systems and medium-temperature applicationsR-448A Lower-GWP R-404A and R-22 Replacement
R-448A (sold as Solstice N40 by Honeywell) is a 25 lb cylinder priced at $349.
