T&T: Freeze 12 - direct replacement for R12 freon

[Albin43SDtr]

'Lo All,

After looking at the website, Freeze 12 looks like repackaged R134a, 
which is a replacement for R-12. It, too, requires different 
fittings, same as the Freeze 12 does. I converted all of my R-12 
units to R134a a long time ago. It works OK, but is nowhere as 
efficient as R-12 was. Several companies sell conversion kits to 
R-134a, but you first have to determine the type of fittings are on 
your equipment as there are several different configurations. I found 
that it was easiest to buy the fittings individually and then get a 
small can of R134a and a dispenser (fits onto can and has hose to 
charge system).

I am not a refrigeration tech, but did stay at a Holiday Inn....and 
built the refrigeration system for my old sailboat as well as 
maintained all of my vehicular AC systems.


Take care and be safe.
