Just like anything else. If installed properly and maintained they do well. I was thinking r32 was going to be next, but we got an email from carrier that says hfo refrigerants are next....like the gas in new cars 1234ab?? Something wierd liike that.From what I understand R1234-yf is the new choice for small systems like cars/refrigerators. R-32 is for residential applications. Same as the R12 vs. R-22 and R134a vs. R-410a compromise.And R-290 works great in an R-22 system. Just wouldn't want it circulating in my house system if a fire broke out.
