HVAC CapEX consideration

[Andrew Kutscher]

Last night at dinner, a friend of mine was explaining that he had to replace his entire HVAC system due to the fact that R22 Freon is no longer available and the "phase out" of R22 is complete.

Furthermore, he tried to use his warranty to replace it but his warranty did not apply because the contract states it will only replace HVAC systems that are similar to the one you have.

 Basically, if you have an HVAC that runs on the old coolant, you will eventually need to replace your HVAC with the new one, and your home warranty may or may not cover it.

I was completely unaware of this change until now, and wanted to make others aware as well.. included is a link that explains further.
