Is hot shot freon just another name for R 414?
There is Hot Shot... not "Hot Shot Freon" - "Freon" is a trademark of DuPont for a line of CFC and HFC refrigerants, whereas "Hot Shot" is a trademark of ICOR International for their R414b refrigerant. But yes, "Hot Shot" refrigerant is R414b.
How do you switch from r134a freon to r414b freon?
The manufacturers claim that R414B refrigerant (Freon is a registered trademark of Dupont, and it's only actually Freon is manufactured by Dupont) can be used as a replacement without modification and with the same PAG compressor oil. While, personally, I remain a bit skeptical of this claim, a look at the operating pressures of 414b vs. 134a gives no indication that a 134a system wouldn't be able to handle 414b. However, you cannot blend the two - you would have to have the R134a evacuated and recovered out of your system, then put in the R414b.
What is the weight of an empty 30 lb tank of R409?
30 lb
What type of freon should be used in older model ac units?
Define "older model". Up to the early 90s, they used R-12/CFC-12. Good luck trying to get that anymore. R414B is the recommended replacement for R12 systems.
Can I get R414b Hot shot refrigerant without a permit and will it work an older pre-1995 car?
No, you can not purchase R414B (legally) without being EPA Cert. Secondly, yes it will work in a pre 1995 car.
What is the difference between f22 and r22 freon?

What is the difference between R134 and R134a Freon?

Where can i buy a can of R12 freon for my 1991 Buick Park Avenue?
You can't. You have to be Section 608 certified and licensed to buy CFC12 (R12) in any quantity. Your best bet is to either convert it to R134a or R414b.
What is the difference between opened and closed system of air conditioning?
A closed system would be full of freon without any leaks and a opened system would have no freon or has leaks...........
Is there a difference between r-12 and r 134a freon oil?
There is very little difference in performance between R-12 and R-143A Freon oil. R-12 oil is more damaging to the environment while R-134A is less harmful.
Is r22 freon compatible with r 134a freon?
Is r-22 Freon compatible with r-134a freon?
How much does it cost to change over from R12 to R134A freon?
Depends on how extensive a conversion you want to do. If you want to a complete conversion and replace just about everything, the cost will be in the thousands. For considerably less, you can replace the refrigerant oil, replace the hose fittings, and replace the metering device. Another alternative is to switch to R414b, which is claimed to be able to replace (read: replace, not be blended with) R12 without a need for changing oil or components.
