Identify before connecting
Use refrigerant identification when system history is uncertain. Mixed or contaminated refrigerant requires proper recovery and disposition.

Built for the correct system—not every system
Common compatible work
- Repair of existing systems whose data plate specifies R22
- Legacy residential and light-commercial comfort cooling
- Compatible older refrigeration equipment
- Recovery, charging and maintenance performed under applicable rules
Confirm before ordering
- The system still contains R22 and has not previously been converted
- The purchase and service meet current federal, state and local requirements
- The leak source has been found and repaired before charging
- The system condition makes continued service practical compared with replacement or an approved retrofit
Plan the charge before opening the valve
Never vent
Recover refrigerant with approved equipment and follow all recordkeeping, handling and disposal requirements.
Evaluate the whole system
Confirm oil condition, compressor health, metering device operation and leak integrity before adding charge.
Compatibility is mandatory
Use only in existing equipment labeled for R22. Do not mix with retrofit blends or use in R410A, R407C, R32, R454B or other systems. R22 production and import for new supply have been phased out in the United States, so service decisions should account for long-term availability and system age.

Restricted refrigerant sale
Bulk refrigerant sales in the United States are restricted. Proof of the applicable Section 608 or Section 609 technician certification—or documentation that the purchaser employs a properly certified technician—may be required before fulfillment. The purchaser is responsible for satisfying federal, state and local rules for purchase, transport, storage and use.
S
Handling and storage
Keep upright, capped and secured in a cool, dry, ventilated area. Protect from high heat and physical damage. Review the product label and safety data sheet before use. Refrigerant can displace oxygen, cause cold burns and create dangerous pressure if mishandled. Never intentionally vent refrigerant.
