First off you can't buy R-12 or R-22 without a license. I would think that
if you had a license you would have test equipment and would be smart enough
to read the gauges to realize the system is R-12 or R-22. Double Duh...

Duh. Put R-12 in a system that uses R-22 and watch it blow up!

What difference does it make what refrigerant your boat A/C uses? (I
would
bet R22)

Thanks, Don. I should have said "in boats", but the fact is, I didn't
have a clue what's used in cars.

Jim,

R134A is currently used for the Air Conditioning in most vehicles
sold
in
the USA after 1996. I have a 1998 GMC Suburban, a 1998 Honda
Accord,
and
a 1999 Freightliner which all have R134A systems.

OTOH, my home ACs are Carriers, and they are R22 systems. Carrier
also
makes
a "Puron" system which doesn't use R22.

Later,

Don W.

Marineaire, probably the largest player in air conditioning on

over 30 feet, currently uses R22. I've seen R134a in
refrigeration
units (the Sea Frost we took around the world was R134a), but not
in
air con.
