Who makes ecotemp air conditioners?
International Comfort Products makes EcoTemp. They also make Heil, Comfortmaker, Arcoair and Tempstar.
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.
Do you have to flush a r-22 when changing to a 410a?
You cannot charge s R22 system with R410A. You need to replace the Compressor, evaporator coil and check the piping sizes for R410. Also the oils have to be replaced. Vinay
Can you fill 410a freon into R22 system?
You could, if you don't mind destroying the refrigeration system. Different types of refrigerants operate at different system pressures, and also transport different compressor lubricants through the system.
What is the replacement for r22?
Several refrigerants are out with similar properties to R-22. Lately, the most notable one is R-410A, though it`s properties are not so close to 22 it is getting a lot of traction as the long term replacement. Another is 407C, but it never gained the popularity that 410A has. Probably because it is a blend and will fractionate. There is no drop in replacement for 22 that I am aware of and if there is it is not widely promoted or used.
What kind of Freon does a home air conditioner use?
Most home systems use R-22 refrigerant. R-410a, known as PURON, is also an increasingly used refrigerant. If you see a pink sticker on the outdoor unit, it will say on the tag with the model and serial numbers r22 or 410a. "Freon" is a trademark of DuPont, and is NOT the real name of refrigerant. "Freon" was R12 and is no longer made.
Can you use a condensor designed for R22 with an evaporator designed for R410A?
It depends on what you want to do with the sytem. If it is and older condensor contact the supplier and ask for specifications on what the condensor does in 410A. It only depends on the different pressures in the system en the condensoing capacity at R410A.
What is the 410a operating pressure?
The 410a operating pressure is 7.037 Barg or 102.036 psig.
Can you recover r-410a freon?
If you add 410A to a heat pump does it put out more heat or less?
The minimum safety-relief pressure for a R-410A cylinder is .?
minimum pressure is 525 psig for R-410A
Is my home air conditioner damaged if serviceman mixed R22 with R-410A?
Probably not, how long did it run before the mix up was discovered? All of the refrigerant has to come out and be properly disposed of, then a good evacuation and recharge. You did not say which refrigerant was the correct one for the machine, but either way it all has to go.
What is CFC in HVAC?
CFC is Cloroflurocarbon and it refers to the Clourine, Flourine, and Carbon that are present in Freons such as R12. Most home AC units use R22, which is a HCFC, that is HyrdoClouroFlouroCarbon. Any Freon that starts with R requires a EPA license to purchase, and any that ends in A (such as 410A or 134A) is available to the public.
