Freon is only a brand name. There are two primary refrigerants(aka freon) used home air conditioners R-22(which is being phased out due to its ozone depleting) and R-410a(which is the primary replacement for R-22). R-22 A/C's are still sold but they are not being manufactured after January of 2010. So the only R-22 units being sold are units that were stockpiled.
