We did a video on R32 specifically recently and one of the comments that seems to keep popping up is hey, can I just put R32 in 410A Some of you guys have done your homework and you know that r410a is actually comprised of two separate refrigerants, one of them being R32 So can I put R32 in my 410A system? Will it work? Short answer is I don't know I don't know what would happen specifically would it work if you were to put it in there? But I think I can point out a few things that you should know before you were to do something like that. First of all, R32 Is Not An approved drop-in refrigerant replacement refrigerant for 410A refrigerant And so because of that, if the system were say under warranty and you were to do something like that, it would obviously void the warranty.
Can you put r32 in 410 systems?? #hvac #contractor #refrigerant #airconditioning #warranty

What happens if you put R22 into a 410 coil?
It took me a while to catch up to what he’s talking about I thought he was talking about the Nissan r32 😂😂
Why so many different types did the stuff from back in the day work just as well.
If you don't recover all of your refrigerant. Then your R-32 to R-125 mixture wouldn't be correct. The refrigerants would fractionate incorrectly if you don't have the correct mixture of the two refrigerants. There are NO "approved" direct drop in replacements… according to the EPA manual
Just because it’s not approved doesn’t mean it won’t work. More than likely, R-32 would probably work in R-410a system.
Why was R-410a developed when R-32 is considered to be a superior refrigerant?
I would say good luck in the long run. Why are professionals always trying to use another type of gas? I have heard of them doing this with R22 systems to keep them running and using a "compatible" refrigerant which most HVAC tech's are suggesting they will not work in the long run. Are you in Barrhaven ?
