R22 availability

[A Surveyor]

Hi - can anyone tell me the true availibility of R22 and the cost. I am advising tennats with a couple of years to run on their leases and it is not necesserily in their interest to change refrigerant gas because the lease expires before the ban comes into effect.

Thanks.

At the begining of the year, in Spain, there were around 45.000tons of R22 in the installations. In the UK, it could be more or less the same quantity. You only need to recover and recycle, then you have a "very cheap" R22.

Regards,

Nando.

and there was I thinking that it may be in the best interest of worlds climate NOT to use R22 isent that what WE are about?

[casstrig]

The current range of HFC refrigerants are not the end solution as we have solved the problem of ozone depletion but have actually increased global warming potential so I expect there will be a rethink in the near future,co2 and r600a or nh3 spring to mind.

Does anyone know if use R22 is against the law in Europe?
