R22 refrigerant is illegal to import and manufacturer in the U.S. But it’s not illegal for anyone to buy R22 freon. And it’s not illegal to sell it IF you have a license. As long as the stocks last, you will be able to continue purchasing R22 from specialized dealers and form your air conditioning company.
Q. How much freon does a Honda Civic take?
The 2009 Honda Civic has a freon capacity of 19.4 ounces. It is recommended to use r-134a refrigerant.
Q. How much does a tank of R22 cost?
Today R-22 can be as much as $50 per pound, depending on where you purchase it. Typical residential air conditioning units hold from 5 to 15 pounds of R-22. Even more, according to the EPA, production and sale of R-22 be cease completely by 2020.
Q. How much should I pay for R22 freon?
R22 Freon costs $90 to $150 per pound installed or $13 to $21 per pound wholesale. R22 refrigerant is the old standard for residential air conditioners, which is now banned and no longer produced.
Q. What should the high and low side pressures be R22?
The low-side should be near 30 PSI at 90 degrees Fahrenheit or less. Pressure that is too much lower or higher shows there is a problem. On a properly working system, high-side pressure will be about twice the ambient temperature, plus 50 PSI.
Q. What are the correct high and low readings for R22 pressures?
R22 gauge pressure is 10.9 bar or 158.2 psi. Low-pressure refrigerant turns on the carrier HVACR at 50 psi (R22 pressure at 30 degrees) and closes at 100 psi (R22 pressure at 85 degrees). R22 pressure at 85 degrees shows a vapor pressure of around 170 psi at the sea level.
Q. What should the high and low side pressures BE for 407c?
Re: R407c Pressures If this is so always evaporating above zero, 4 or 5 deg celcius, R407c will have a low pressure (suction ) of about 50 psi. and a high pressure ( discharge ) of about 280 psi, which is about 55 deg celcius, cooling cycle.
Q. What should R22 pressures be on a 80 degree day?
You’re low. Low side should usually be ~70-75 psi at that indoor temp and high side should be 170+psi (depending on how dirty your coil is and seer rating).
