Faced with the dilemma of phasing out R22, Bluon Energy set out to find a viable solution to overcome various limitations of HVAC efficiency. Freon or R22 was the best refrigerant used in the HVAC industry for more than 4-5 decades. The substance comes with numerous advantages to the HVAC systems. But it was found to negatively impact the Earth’s ozone layer in the late 1980s. In fact, 197 countries signed the Montreal Protocol in 1987 to prevent the irreversible damage to the Earth’s ozone layer. R22 is an ODS or ozone-depleting substance. Hence, the EPA decided to phase out the refrigerant from being used in the HVAC-R industry. The final stage of this phase-out is to be completed by January 2020 – you won’t find R22 even to service the existing units after this date. That is where a viable replacement refrigerant such as TdX 20 from Bluon Energy becomes important. Here is what really sets TdX 20 apart from different industry standards.
The whole idea of phasing out R22 is to find a viable solution that would enhance the performance of HVAC-R units as well as protect the ozone layer of the planet at the same time. There are many alternative refrigerants on the market today. But most of these substances would reduce the energy efficiency of HVAC-R units. That is where a viable solution such as TdX 20 becomes so important. TdX 20 is the only alternative refrigerant that would enhance the performance and eco-friendliness of the HVAC-R equipment. Hence, you should convert your existing R22 HVAC units to units that use TdX 20. The conversion is quite easy since TdX 20 works on almost every HVAC unit that operates on R22. Hence, you don’t have to make any structural changes to the unit when converting it to use TdX 20 compared to Freon. The process will save you a lot of time and money over time. That is why it is important that you do the conversion right now and contribute to the protection of the ozone layer of the planet.
Bluon Energy’s TdX 20 increases the operational efficiency of the existing heating, ventilation, air conditioner, and refrigeration (HVAC-R) systems out there. This helps companies to decrease their electricity consumption over time. In fact, HVAC-R systems use more than 40% of all the electricity in the world. On the other hand, electricity contributes to the formation of greenhouse gases – it is approximately 30% in the United States alone. Greenhouse gases contribute to the global warming process. Hence, an alternative refrigerant such as TdX 20 will help reduce the electricity consumption of your HVAC unit. This is very important to protect the environment in the long run. That is why TdX 20 is considered the most viable alternative refrigerant on the market today. It improves the efficiency of the HVAC units, decreases the electricity consumption, and protects the environment at the same time. It isn’t an ODS substance like R22. These qualities set TdX 20 apart from most of the other alternative refrigerants on the market today. That is why you should consider replacing R22 in your old units with the energy efficient and eco-friendly TdX 20 without further delay. You won’t regret your decision in the long run when you make the move today. In fact, you will save a lot of money and reduce your carbon footprint in the process.
The journey of Bluon Energy began with its founder Peter Capuciati – who has a real estate and science R & D background. Peter is a physicist who spent more than 20 years of his life in the commercial real estate sector. In fact, he left his lucrative profession in real estate to pursue his passion for science and research and development. Peter was introduced to a small team working to find an energy efficient refrigerant to replace R22 that was being phased out at that time. The commercial instincts of Peter helped him immediately recognize the vast potential of such a product. He knew that all the existing replacement refrigerants caused a loss of efficiency when replacing Freon or R22. But the negative environmental impact of R22 was hindering the further use of R22 as an HVAC-R refrigerant. That is how Bluon Energy’s TdX 20 was born. In fact, TdX 20 is the only alternative refrigerant that is more energy efficient than R22 when used in the existing HVAC systems. That is why TdX 20 has become so popular on the market today.
R22 or Freon is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) while TdX 20 or R458A is considered an HFC (hydrofluorocarbon). There is no chlorine in the latter and no impact on the ozone layer of the planet. The substance has a lower GWP (1650) – which means the substance improve the energy efficiency of the HVAC system. In fact, TdX 20 will improve the energy efficiency of your HVAC-R unit by at least 25% when installing on any system that was previously running on R22. This increase in energy efficiency helps to positively impact the environment. In fact, Bluon Energy’s TdX 20 is a unique alternative refrigerant on the market since it complies with all the required industry standards. Here are three important reasons why you should shift to Bluon Energy from the ozone-depleting R22 refrigerant.
. TdX 20 is the only energy efficient replacement for R22 – which means it represents an upgrade to R22 – with a better ROI in the long run.
. TdX 20 is the only alternative refrigerant that comes with a comprehensive technical support surrounding its use and installation. There is a team of veteran technicians on call to help the HVAC industry technicians at any time and anywhere.
. It is the only replacement for R22 that can improve the lifespan of your HVAC-R units. That is due to its proven ability to reduce compressor and coil temperatures. On the other hand, it will decrease the operating pressure as well as increase the compressor stability.
