R-22A is a refrigerant that is sometimes considered as a drop-in replacement for R-22, but it is not a direct substitute. While R-22A can be used in some systems, it requires careful evaluation of compatibility with the existing components and oil types in the system. Additionally, R-22 is being phased out due to environmental regulations, so transitioning to R-22A may provide a temporary solution, but ultimately, systems should be converted to more environmentally friendly refrigerants that comply with current regulations. Always consult with a certified HVAC technician before making any changes to refrigerants.

r22a
Envirosafe sells R22a, a propane based freon that they claim is compatible with R22 systems, but to add this to your system legally you have to first have your system evacuated of reg. freon 22 by a recovery sytem, it is against federal law to release it into the atmosphere as well as mixing different types of freon. The good news is that it costs less than R22, they claim it is more efficient than R22 and you don't need a license to buy it. Although you seem to know what you are talking about just one question what is the difference in reg. FREON and R-22?
No
No the whole system need to be evacuated of the r22 before you put r22a in the system. It's against the law to mix 2 different freons together and also dangerous.
R22 is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerant that is being phased out due to its negative environmental impact. R22a is a hydrocarbon refrigerant blend that is used as an alternative to R22 in some systems, but it is flammable and requires special handling precautions.
Wal-Mart do not have r22 freon, this is a false ad.
NO
No, you should not mix R22 and R22a refrigerants together. Mixing different refrigerants can lead to system inefficiency, reduced cooling capacity, and potential damage to the equipment. It is important to use the correct refrigerant specified by the manufacturer for your system.
