What else can I help you with?
Can you replace r22 with r22a?
Not without conversion.
Can you replace r22 refrigerant with r22a refrigerant?
No.
Can you replace r22 with r22a freon?
Not without conversion.
Substitute for r22?
r22a
Can you top off r22 with r22a?
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.
What is the difference between r22 and r22a?
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.
Can you mix R22 and R22a together?
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.
What is required to convert from R22 to R22a?
i would do a triple evac and install a r22a alrarm becuse it is very flamable thats why i dont want to use it if you have leak in your a-h and you activate your electric heat strip you have a fire probaly a better app is for refridartion no heat source
Can you put 134a in a home ac to replace r22?
No.
Can r22a replace 134a?
My car ran out of freeon. I have 2 cans of R22a left over from my home AC, I want to use it on my car but my car says R-134 only. My car is compleletly empty, can I just pump this R22a in, will it work?...I don't much for the car only when i need it.
Can 134A freon be mixed with or replace R22 in Home Air Conditioner?
No
Can you mix R22 and R22a?
In the USA it is unlawful to mix R22 (chlorodifluoromethane) with R22a aka R290 (propane, aka liquiefied petroleum gas) (propane). While the two are not incompatible working fluids mixing them is a bad idea even where it is not unlawful. R290 is a known refrigerant with many excellent properties and one major drawback - flammability. As a practical matter, R22 was created because early air conditioners using ammonia, propane, and other toxic or flammable materials were dangerous when they failed, and air conditioning was not accepted as safe for the home. Propane has not become any less flammable since that time. In the event of a rapid loss of refrigerant (e.g. compressor terminal blowout) an electrical spark (from the live wire on the terminal blown out) may ignite it. In such an event any R22 also present would decompose into highly toxic fumes greatly increasing the risk of accidental death. As a further caution to tinkerers, commonly available LPG propane (but not R22a or R290) has a sulfer compound "mercaptin" added for leak detection that would have an undesirable effect on the lubrication oil in a sealed system.
