Where Can I Buy R-22 Refrigerant?

R-22 Refrigerant is a little difficult to find now a days. Since R-22 is a CFC refrigerant it has been slowly phased out over the past few years and will be phased out completely around 2020. If you are looking to purchase R-22 you need to ask yourself one question: “How many cylinders am I looking to purchase?” That one question will determine where you want to shop and what kind of price you should be expecting.

If you will be buying just one or two cylinders of R22 refrigerant than I would recommend shopping online through E-Commerce websites. There are numerous websites out there to choose from but if I was to pick the best one out there today for one off refrigerant purchases I would choose E-Bay. E-Bay is a customer friendly website and will ensure that you are happy with your purchase.

If you are looking to purchase ten, twenty, or even forty cylinders of R22 then I would recommend visiting our Bulk Purchasing page and filling out a bulk order request form. Once we received the completed notification we will send out an alert to our contacts in the refrigerant distribution industry. Our distributors will then contact you with the most competitive price that they can offer and it will be up to you on which supplier to go with. This service provides you with competitive real time costs as well as giving you a number of highly rated suppliers to choose from.

One important thing to note with R-22 is that in order to purchase and handle R22 you need to be 608 certified with the Environmental Protection Agency. If you purchase R-22 without being 608 certified you risk violating the Federal Clean Air Act. (You do not want to do that!) Most sellers on E-Bay will require one of two things before you purchase. Either a copy of your 608 certification license number or a signed letter of intent to resale this product do a different end user. Be prepared to provide one or the other when purchasing.

If you are a purchaser looking to buy in bulk quantities such as five, ten, or more cylinders then please visit our bulk purchasing page to receive a quote.
