What changed

Nothing moved for the third straight week. All 24 listings we track at Refrigerants Center, Imperial Refrigerants, Refrigerant Depot and Refrigerant Guys show the same price as on Oct 26. No listing showed as out of stock. Refrigerant Depot still shows 7 R-454B 20 lb cylinders in stock. Its R-134a page did not show stock on the copy we could read this week, so we list it as unknown rather than in stock.

Per pound

R-454B ($23.35/lb median) still costs about 2.4x R-410A ($9.78/lb). R-32 sits at $12.10/lb. R-134a ($11.49/lb) and R-404A ($11.84/lb) are close to each other. R-22 still has the widest spread: $449 to $900 for the same 30 lb size.
