What kind of freon is needed for a 1992 Geo Storm?
Your 92' Geo probably uses R12 freon, but since they don't sell that to just anybody in stores they will probably want to sell you R134 freon. I recommend that you just take it to somebody who has an air conditioning license that way he can get you the R12 that it needs. I wouldn't put R134 in your air conditioning system because it might harm it. Plus R12 is very expensive now a days since they don't make R12 systems for cars anymore cause it pollutes the atmosphere, but to tell you the truth it cools alot better than R134. R134 is sort of like the replacement of R12. A can of R12 can cost up to $30, and most cars need around 2 or 2 1/2 cans.
How do you determine if charge is correct using R22?
the things that must be considered when charging the system with R22; R404;R134;R507;R406
Can freon affect the ozone layer?
Freon is actually a brand name for a class of compounds known that contain fluorine, and are gases at room temperature. If the compound also contains the halogens chlorine or bromine, these compounds are known ozone depleters (CFCs, HCFCs, and so on). The fluorine presents no challenge, but the other halogens do. For instance, Freon R-12 is CCl2F2. These compounds were commonly used until it was discovered that they can catalytically destroy ozone. Bromine from Halons has a very similar effect. Here is what happens when these man-made molecules are released into the atmosphere: # They mix in the troposphere # They mix into the stratosphere # When exposed to UV light, the C-Cl bond is broken and the free radical Cl. is formed # Cl. reacts with ozone (O3) to form O2 and ClO, another radical. # ClO reacts with O to form O2 and Cl. # Go back to step 4. and the process repeats itself until the Cl is rained out as HCl. It could repeat ozone destruction 10,000 times plus or minus, depending only on other compounds to tie it back up, and UV not to release it again. The net chemical reaction is this: O3 + O --> 2O2 CFC's remain in the atmosphere for something like 50 years, continually destroying ozone. Since they were banned by the Montreal Protocol, they have largely been replaced by similar molecules, but these new ones are less stable. These new molecules are destroyed before they are able to reach the stratosphere, where the protective layer of ozone is found, and do not destroy ozone. Many developing nations continue to use the old dangerous CFC's however. The R12 Freon (for one example of hundreds) refrigerant was phased out due to being a Ozone (O3) destroying / interactive chemical. It was replaced with R134. Since the phasing out of R12, measurements of the Antarctic Ozone layer show that the Ozone is recovering and is therefore cited as a positive change resulting from environmental policy. Update: record size ozone hole in 2007, and near record in 2008. R12 may be reduced, but other compounds have apparently stepped in.
