freon price per pound
And, unfortunately, while basic economics escapes some decision makers at the highest levels, the reality is that as costs double, prices to consumers will likely double as a result. Informal surveys inside the industry put the average cost per pound of freon in 2012 at a range of $75 â $125. With that price doubling and many refrigerant leaks requiring as much as 3-4 pounds, you are getting into a price that should prompt you to consider replacement of your air conditioning system.
