Old units used R12 or R22. New units use R134a. You shouldn't need to buy any refrigerant (not "refridgerant") for a window air conditioner, as these units are hermetically sealed at the factory, just like refrigerators and freezers, and typically won't lose gas for their entire service life. If it is no longer cooling properly, the coils may be dirty and in need of cleaning, the condenser fan may have failed, or some other component may have failed. If the unit is over 10 years old and has been used heavily, the compressor may simply be worn out, in which case it's time to replace the entire air conditioner.
No, you cannot recharge a window air conditioner with refrigerant yourself. It requires a professional technician to properly recharge the refrigerant in an air conditioner.
Technically yes. But with the cost of the refrigerant it`s not worth it.
Your recharge your air conditioner with the type of refrigerant which it was designed for.

what type of refrigerant does a 1986 oldsmobile cuttlas suprem air conditioner require? reply to: jwilbertr@gmail.com
Refrigerant is stored in the compressor of an air conditioner.
There is nothing you can do to prevent a leak from occurring.
Yes, window AC units require refrigerant, such as Freon, for operation. Refrigerant is essential for the cooling process in the air conditioner.
An air conditioner in a RV uses refrigerant to chill air passing over an evaporator coil. The most common refrigerant is Freon and is easily found in most autopart stores.
It depends on year of manufacturer.
