If you add 410A to a heat pump does it put out more heat or less?
The recommended type of freon for a window AC unit is R-410A.
Freon is not Toxic, but its not good to breath it or have extended contact with it on the skin. It is a controlled EPA substance. Some are Flammable and have other properties like 410A which is a mixed blend of Freon/Purion. Under pressure 410a is one liquid but outside of the system the Freon components separate and become to different chemicals.
r-22 (gentron), and r-410a (puron)
As of 2021, the price of R-410A per pound can vary but typically ranges from $4 to $8 per pound. It's important to check with suppliers or retailers for the most current pricing information.
The most common for vehicles are R-12 and R134a freon.......... The most common for homes are R-22 and R-410A freon..........
I don't have real-time pricing data, but as of my last update, the price of Freon refrigerant, particularly R-22 and R-410A, can vary significantly based on market conditions, availability, and environmental regulations. Prices could range from $10 to $50 per pound or more. For the most accurate and current pricing, it's best to check with local suppliers or online marketplaces.
The best alternative to Freon in an AC unit is a refrigerant called R-410A, also known as Puron. It is more environmentally friendly and has become the standard replacement for Freon in modern air conditioning systems.
R-22 currently, but is quickly being replaced by R-410A due to CFC issues
The cost of R-410A can vary depending on factors like location and supplier, but on average it can range from $5 to $10 per pound. It's always best to check with local suppliers for the most current pricing.

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.
