Can you change r-22 to r-410a?
yes
Which freon will leak from a smaller hole R-22 or R-410A?
The R-22 (chlorodifluoromethane), will leak from a smaller hole than R-410A will. Sort of. Now that we've answered the question, it's time to state that R-410A is an azeotropic mixture of difluoromethane and pentafluoroethane. And the difluoromethane component of the mixture is a smaller molecule than chlorodifluoromethane, which is what R-22 is. But the pentafluoroethane is a larger molecule than the chlorodifluoromethane (R-22). If molecular size is the sole determinate as to which "stuff" can get out, part of the R-410A can get out a smaller hole than the R-22, but all of the R-22 can get out through the "right sized hole" because it is smaller than a constituent of the R-410A. It's your call. Links are provided.
What is the Difference between r-22 and r410a?
R-22 has HCFC (hydrocloroflorocarbons) R-410A has HFC (hydroflorocarbons)
Is better 410a better than R-22?
410 is better
What freon is used in home air conditioning?
r-22 (gentron), and r-410a (puron)
What kind or type of refrigerant is used in a Heat pump?
R-22 or 410A
What needs to be done to retrofit your ac unit?
Depends on what you are retrofiting from- to? R-22 to R-410a or r-12 to r134a?
Why are there more safety precautions with r410a than with other popular refrigerants like r22 and r404a?
The pressure of R-410A is significantly higher than other refrigerants R-22 and R-404A. This does not mean that R-410A, or equipment containing R-410A is unsafe. It does mean that technicians must use AC equipment; cylinders and service tools have been re-engineered to handle these higher pressures.
Where can I purchase R-22 refrigerant or R-410a refrigerant?
Any refrigeration supplier provided you have the proper federal certification.
How do you use Air conditioning gauges?
There is two types. One is for R-22 and the other is for R-134A or R-410A. You must perform superheat and subcool, measure ambient temperature and wet bulb.
What is diffference between a flare in a tube that's part of a R-410A system and a flare in a tube from an R-22 system?
No Difference
What is the low side pressure on a home air conditioner?
60 psi for r-22. 125 for a 410a
