The Acadia™ uses R410A, an environmentally friendly refrigerant that does not contain any ozone depleting CFCs. For many years, the standard refrigerant in heat pumps and air conditioners was R22. R22 is currently being phased out and being replaced with more environmentally conscious refrigerants such as R410A.
