Forane® 22 refrigerant (R-22) is the versatile solution for all your cooling and refrigeration needs. Whether you need it for your home, office, or vehicle, Forane® 22 can handle any temperature and climate. But hurry, Forane® 22 is an HCFC and will no longer be produced or imported after January 1, 2020, as per the Montreal Protocol. You can still buy and use Forane® 22 for your existing R-22 equipment after this date, but supplies are limited. Don’t miss this chance to stock up on Forane® 22, the reliable and efficient refrigerant that works for you. You can also choose Forane® 427A – The EASY RETROFITTM, as a convenient alternative for your R-22 installations.
