Altruistic’s Approach: Transparency And Customer Care

At Altruistic AC, Heating & Plumbing, we believe in providing clear and honest guidance for homeowners. With the introduction of R-454B refrigerant, we know there are questions and concerns about what this change means for your home. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions without any pressure to upgrade your air conditioner unnecessarily.

Here’s what you need to know:

  • R-454B is an eco-friendly alternative to R-410A, reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
  • You don’t need to switch right away — your current R-410A system is still supported.
  • When it’s time for a new system, R-454B can improve energy efficiency and lower bills.
  • If your current system uses R-410A, you can continue maintaining it until you’re ready for an upgrade.

Altruistic is committed to offering transparent pricing and options that fit your needs — no unnecessary upsells or hidden costs. Our mission is to help you keep your home comfortable while making smart, informed choices.

Why Is R-454B Refrigerant Being Introduced?

The HVAC industry is moving away from R-410A refrigerant, which previously replaced R-22 refrigerant. Now, R-454B is part of a new generation of refrigerants that are better for the environment because they have a lower global warming potential.

Simply put: Using R-454B helps reduce your carbon footprint, which is better for the planet.

Do You Need A New System for R-454B?

No, you don’t need to rush out and buy a new HVAC system right away. If your current system uses R-410A, you can continue to use and maintain your AC until it’s time for an upgrade. When you’re ready, we’ll help you find the best option for your home. At Altruistic AC, Heating & Plumbing, we believe in giving you choices, not pushing you into something you don’t need.

What Happens If You Stick With R-410A?

If your current system works well, there’s no need to worry. R-410A refrigerant will still be available for repairs and maintenance. Over time, it may become more expensive as it’s phased out, but we’ll be upfront about any changes in costs. We always prioritize honesty, so you’ll never be surprised by hidden fees.
