The average cost of refrigerant in the USA has seen an increase over the past decade. In 2010, the average cost was $10.50 per pound, and by 2020 the average cost had increased to $30.50 per pound. This represents an increase of almost 200% in the cost of refrigerant over the past 10 years. This data was sourced from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Refrigerant Management Program.
