Payne® Equipment Offers Ecologically Sound R-410A AC

Although R-410A has been around for the last several years, it is only recently that the refrigerant has gained popularity in the HVAC/R world. By the end of 2009, the commonly used refrigerant R-22 will start to be phased out and replaced by R-410A. HVAC/R techs in the know can find Payne R-410A air conditioners at their local Totaline® sales center. 

“Products containing R-22 refrigerant will stop being manufactured after Dec. 31, 2009,” said Totaline Category Manager Tom Archer. “And R-22 refrigerant will only be available in limited quantities. Luckily, Payne units containing R-410A are readily available at Totaline sales centers, and these units provide a perfect alternative to the R-22 units,” he added.

Archer explained that there are several benefits to using R-410A air conditioning products, including efficiency and environmental benefits. “R-410A features greater capacity and higher efficiency – it was specifically designed for the latest high-efficiency systems.” Archer also said that the primary environmental benefit to using R-410A as an alternative to R-22 is that it does not contribute to ozone depletion. “R-410A is not a chlorine based refrigerant so it complies with new energy and environmental standards regarding leakage and gas emissions,” Archer explained.

Archer added that Payne offers air conditioning units that comply with the new environmental standards. “The PA13NA and PA14NA air conditioners are smooth-running and energy saving,” Archer said. “These models incorporate the EPA-approved and industry accepted R-410A refrigerant.” Archer said that the PA13NR, an R-22 unit, would continue to be available throughout 2009 as well.
