I'd take that 2 year gamble on a working system. Hell... I AM. my r-22 ac is real fuckin old...like 1987. Im hoping to not put in new equipment that is IMMEDIATELY obsolete / hella expensive to maintain / not forwards compatible.

Also fuck the epa for fucking around with the coolants every 15 years. Ozone holes? proven false. Global warming potential? fuck that water vapor dwarfs it ALL.
You know what would have been helpful? Leading with this information to give context as to why I should limp a 30yo AC system along. This is something I did not know and is very helpful knowledge.
I see all sides of this. I TOLD Brad about this shit. I was real mad dropping 7400 on 410 when I found out a week later it's phased out. I also did t have any options as the consumer/residential units simply arent being produced yet. In the next 2 years we will see all the new and flammable gas systems in the market. But yeah. 410a days been numbered. Thanks .gov
