CI-v4 EAp3:Fundamental refrigerant management

5 year replacement period?

"For existing buildings with existing equipment or projects that use existing central plants, teams will need to check if CFC-based refrigerants are being used. If they are, LEED requires either installing CFC-free equipment, or commiting to phasing out CFC refrigerants through refrigerant conversion or equipment replacement within five years of “substantial completion” of your project. " Does anyone know if that 5 year timeframe is acceptable? I can't find that language in the actual reference guide, only here in LEED User. Thanks.
