R22 (commonly referred to by the brand Freon) is not a toxic substance. Its main danger would be the potential for oxygen displacement just as any other gas that is heavier than air, causing symptoms of asphyxiation. Some people may be highly sensitive to environmental substances in general, and have an asthmatic type response to R22. In the scope of a home system for example, unless the system is leaking the better portion of its charge in a matter of a day or two, there is no danger to the home or inhabitants. In rare cases, very rare, ammonia or an uncommon refrigerant could be used, but the majority of home A/C's for generations have been R22.
