R22 Buyback Program
It's time to recharge your R-22 based refrigerant system again, and you may have noticed the rapidly depleting availabilty and equally shocking rise in price for additional R-22. Due to govermental regulations, the use of R-22 is phasing out fast. ComStar & ChemPoint are here to assist with the new R-22 buyback program.
R-22 Buyback - How Does it Work?
If you are in the market for a recharge or full flush of your performance refrigerant, don't break the bank with the increasingly expensive R-22. Instead, make that legacy R-22 work for you!
ComStar will buy back R22 from your system assuming you meet the following requirements:
- 1,000 lbs. minimum buyback volume
- 99.5% Purity (ComStar will provide laboratory analysis)
- Recovery Cylinders Provided Upon Request
ComStar will purchase this material back at a rate of $10.50 per lb. and will ship out recovery cylinders to assist in the process.
