R-12..........
This is a straight cool 13 SEER condensing unit that uses R410a refrigerant. This is not a heat pump.
R22 needs import license,R410A does not need anything special
R134A, R22A, R404A, R410A and many more
?
An R22 coil will work properly with R410A only ifseveral conditions are met.First, the manufacturer of the coil must specify that it will work with both refrigerants. R410A systems operate at about 40 to 70 % higher pressure than R22 systems.Second, the new coil must be equipped with an inlet control (either a thermal expansion valve or orifice) that is intended for R410A. The new coil may not use a capillary tube metering system to control refrigerant flow into the evaporator coils.Third, the tonnage, or Btu capacity, of the coil and control device, and the EER/SEER of the coil must match those same ratings for the condensing unit.Fourth, if the new coil has been used in an R22 system, it must be thoroughly flushed clean of oil, and must be refitted with the proper control valving for R410A.
One refrigerant that is chlorine free is cfc-22. This refrigerant has gained popularity in the past few years in many homes.
They use R410a eco friendly refrigerant gas now.
short answer: Only people with and EPA certification may purchase R22 and/or R410A refrigerants.
Technicians with R-22 experience will need to become familiar with working with high and low side pressures that are much higher when using R-410A. A typical R-22 system operating normally with a head pressure of 260 psig at a 120-degree condensing temperature and a low side pressure of 76 psig at a 45-degree evaporator saturation temperature will find the equivalent pressures in a R-410A system to be much higher.A normally operating R-410A system with the same condensing temperature of 120 degrees and a 45 degree evaporator saturation temperature will have a high side pressure of 418 psig and a low side pressure of 130 psig.Although refrigerant 410A is a near-azeotrope and has a slight temperature glide, there is no need to correct for refrigerant dew point and bubble point differences. Superheat and sub cooling calculations can be calculated the same way we have always done with R-22 refrigerant. The only difference will be the higher pressure-temperature relationship when reading the temperature-pressure chart. The temperature glide for R-410A is only .3 degrees Fahrenheit and can be ignored and fractionation is not a concern.

With any refrigeration unit - doesn't matter whether it's an unit with R410a, R22, R12, R134, etc. - you have a rapid exchange of heat taking place between the refrigerant and the ambient air passing through the fins. Condensation will result as a byproduct of this process. Don't be freaked out if you see a bit of water - that's quite normal.
As of now, Air conditioner uses R22 refrigerant. In coming days ACs will come with refrigerants such as R410A, R407C etc.
