R22 Condenser With R410a Air Handler

All of the r22 in your current system will need to be re claimed and your system will need to be charged with the new r 421a.

R22 condenser with r410a air handler.

By doing so you can keep your existing coil air handler line set and other indoor equipment. Because r 410a can absorb and release more heat than r 22 your air conditioning compressor can run cooler reducing the risk of compressor burnout due to overheating. Can i use an r410a condenser with an r22 air handler. The r410a is a clear winner in terms of pressure applied in the air conditioner.

As of 2012 the heating ventilating and air conditioning hvac industry is in the process of changing over from ozone depleting r 22 refrigerant to environmentally friendlier r 410a refrigerant. R410a is a higher pressure system and r22 is a lower pressure system. The r410a has much more advanced properties than that of any r22 refrigerant. Our r 421a air conditioner units use roughly the same pressure as r22 allowing you to keep your indoor units.

They are both good refrigerants and they both work but they have to be charged in the system at different pressures. Though the r22 is available at a cheaper rate it is always better to use the r410a. To make a short story long r410a and r22 are refrigerants. It is more effective for reducing global ozone layer depletion and also performs faster.

The old r22 compressors were not so picky. Oxygen and moisture contamination is the biggest killer of r410a compressors that we see today.
