As many of you probably know . in Australia the prices of gas has gone from $20 dollars to $200 in not long at all.

I was wondering if there is some kind of extra tax as well for precharged units , and if it has risen as much as buying bottles.

Would i cheap $600 dollar Import split system that has a kilo or so be effect by this and now be $900 bucks?

Are they going to stop selling units that are precharged. which will be annoying if we have to put 8kilos of gas into a ducted instead of just topping it up if the pipe run is over 10metres .

I was joking today if the price keeps going up you would be better of buying cheap air cons taking the gas out of them and scraping them. I know this is not true though .
