What does r-22 freon cost per pound?

As of my last knowledge update in October 2023, the price of R-22 refrigerant can vary significantly depending on the supplier and market conditions, but it generally ranged from $35 to $60 per pound. Prices have been increasing due to the phase-out of R-22 under the EPA's regulations, leading to limited availability. It’s advisable to check with local suppliers for the most current pricing.
