“R-454B refrigerant: What It Is and Why Cool Air M.D. Is Ahead of the Game”

What Is R-454B and Why Does It Matter to You?

When it comes to air conditioning, refrigerants are always evolving. Starting in 2025, manufacturers began phasing in R-454B—a more environmentally friendly refrigerant that’s replacing R-410A. At Cool Air M.D., we’re already prepared to service, install, and support systems running on R-454B, keeping our customers ahead of the curve.

🌍 What Is R-454B refrigerant?

R-454B (sometimes branded as “Puron Advance”) is the new low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerant being adopted across the HVAC industry. Compared to R-410A, it:

• Has 78% lower GWP, making it more eco-friendly.

• Meets new EPA and international regulations on refrigerants.

• Offers similar performance and pressures to R-410A, making the transition smoother.

❄️ Why the Switch Matters

Older refrigerants like R-22 were phased out because of environmental impact. R-410A is now following the same path. As new units come off the line, R-454B is the standard—so if you’re replacing a system in 2025 or beyond, chances are it’ll be running on R-454B.
