They have refrigerant that can be used instead of 410A. It is flammable and striated so you have to Only add liquid.

I believe that the real problem is if a compressor goes bad.Then you have hard time finding a replacement so you'll have to get a whole new system. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But I think they have to stop making all 410a equipment by the end of this year
