There is many different types of Freon. If the freon that you are trying to use is R-22 then you have to have a EPA certification to handle that freon. This freon is considered ozone depleteing.

What type freon for a Kia?
Your car uses refrigerant not Freon. Freon is a brand name put out by DuPont. All ac systems use refrigerant often mistakenly called Freon. All of them!!! Check for a decal under the hood or on the compressor for the information you seek. I believe that around 1996 car makers started using R-134A instead of R-12 refrigerant. Hope this helps.
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.
Is freon flammable and what do cars today use?
Freon is not flammable. In fact, it was once commonly used in fire extinguishers, especially aboard Navy ships. Freon was considered a huge improvement over its predecessors (propane or ammonia) because they were flammable or toxic. Today cars and home A/C systems use a variety of safer alternatives. One common chemical is R410A, also called Puron or Genetron AZ-20. Most cars in the USA currently use R134a.
