Mixing 12A with R134A is not recommended because they are different refrigerants with distinct chemical properties and pressure characteristics. Combining them can lead to system inefficiency, increased pressure, and potential damage to the refrigeration system. Additionally, it can complicate future servicing and recycling of refrigerants. It's best to use refrigerants as specified by the manufacturer.

How much freon in a 2001 dodge ram 1500 5.9?

The 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 Extended cab Laramie SLT uses 32 oz of 134A. I have converted mine to Industrial 12A which is much cheaper and much easier to compress therefore extending the A/C components life. It only requires 12oz of Industrial 12 A as 6 oz of 12A is equivalent to 16 oz of R134A. Doesn't require a deep vacuum either ........only 5-10hg maximum. You are putting a liquid into the system instead of the R134A gas. I deep vacuum for leak purposes but then reduce it to the 5hg which is the recommended vacuum ofr Industrial 12A. It also cools by a minimum of 15F cooler than R134A.


What happens when r12is mixed with r134a?

R12 and R134a are two different types of chemicals used in vehicle refrigeration systems. If you mix the two together, you can corrode the system and cause major damage.

Can you mix r134a and r12 in a 93 Buick lesabre?

No, you should not mix R134a and R12 refrigerants in a 1993 Buick LeSabre or any other vehicle. Mixing these refrigerants can lead to system damage and reduced efficiency, as they have different chemical properties and pressure requirements. If you need to convert from R12 to R134a, it's essential to properly evacuate the system and replace any necessary components to ensure compatibility. Always consult a professional for refrigerant conversions.


Can you mix R134A with 409A if not what will mix with 409A?

No, you should not mix R134A with R409A, as they are different refrigerants with distinct chemical properties. Mixing them can lead to system inefficiencies, reduced cooling performance, and potential damage to the refrigeration system. R409A is typically used as a drop-in replacement for R22, and compatible alternatives include R407C or R422D, depending on the application. Always consult the manufacturer's guidelines before mixing refrigerants.


IS R134a freon compatible with R404?

No. NEVER mix refrigerants or use any refrigerant other than what the system is intended to use.
