Why now’s the best time to buy a new A/C system?

In addition to saving on the cost of refrigerant and getting ahead of the demand for new A/C systems when the R-22 phaseout is nearing completion, you may want to consider a new A/C system now for tax reasons. By going ahead with an A/C replacement now, you’d be free of the refrigerant worry and you could take advantage of the federal tax credit and the higher efficiency a new air conditioner offers.
