Starting January 1, 2025, no new HVAC systems will use R-410A refrigerant. Instead, most residential systems will use either R-32 or R-454B, both of which have a lower environmental impact. While these new refrigerants are a step toward greener solutions, they come with potential cost increases due to new safety requirements.
At MRCOOL DIY Direct, the USA’s most trusted MRCOOL dealer, we want to help you navigate this transition. MRCOOL, the industry leader in DIY HVAC solutions, offers more than just DIY systems—we provide a full range of residential heating and cooling products to meet your needs.

Why the Switch from R-410A?
The EPA is phasing out R-410A due to its environmental impact and high pressure, which makes it prone to leaks that can harm the ozone layer. R-32 and R-454B are more environmentally friendly, but they are mildly flammable. While this poses no significant risk to homeowners, manufacturers must add safety sensors to mitigate potential risks, increasing the cost of these new systems.

What Does This Mean for You?
If you’re planning to replace your HVAC system, now is the time to act. Here’s why:
Cost Savings: Current R-410A systems are less expensive than their R-32 or R-454B counterparts. Buying now could save you a significant amount of money.
Avoid Higher Prices: The new refrigerants and added safety features will increase system costs starting in 2025.
Secure Inventory: Many manufacturers are already reducing R-410A production, and availability may become limited as we approach the end of the year.

Should You Future-Proof with R-32 or R-454B Systems?
While R-32 and R-454B systems are greener options, they may not necessarily "future-proof" your HVAC setup. Here's why:
R-410A Isn't Going Away: Much like the transition from R-22 to R-410A in 2010, R-410A will still be available for servicing existing systems for years to come.
Greener Options Are Available: If reducing your environmental footprint is important, upgrading to a system using R-32 or R-454B is a great choice. However, the current affordability of R-410A systems makes them an attractive option if budget is a concern.
