    Status of refrigerants?



    Does anyone know of an up to-date list of which refrigerants are now banned, going to be soon or are OK?
    Only I tried to find the status of R49 today and could not find out either way!
    It would be nice if such a list existed.

    If a refrigerant is banned, will it be up for sale at your supplier?

    Your not ignorant my friend.
    It's me being stupid, Isceon 49 or (R413a) I think it should read.

    Either way I could not find any definitive details as to status of this , hence my post.

    No! “Stupid is as stupid does”, (Mrs Gump).

    OK, R413a will live as long as R134a.

    I don’t think there are any restrictions for R134a so far except the automotive industrie.

    To tell the truth from the first day I got my hands on R134a I knew I would see the end of it … but not yet!

    It is under discussion though: http://www.fluorocarbons.org/the-hfc-debate
