    • Freon

      • There are many different types of refrigerant used in a variety of refrigeration products, but for air conditioning systems, there are two main types; R-22 or more commonly known as Freon, and R410A, also known as Puron. Puron is said to be much more environmentally friendly than Freon, and is the most popular choice for modern AC systems.

  2. Mar 26, 2024 · Currently, residential split air conditioners (mini splits), window air conditioners and portable air conditioners are using R410A refrigerant. In commercial applications, R410A refrigerant can be found in air-cooled scroll chillers and air source heat pumps (hot water).

  3. Air conditioner refrigerant is the crucial part of the air cooling process and is situated inside the systems copper coils. The job of the refrigerant is to travel through the system to the different parts of the air conditioner, changing from a low-pressure gas to a high-pressure liquid.

  4. Aug 1, 2024 · Table of Contents. Air conditioning units play a crucial role in maintaining indoor comfort by regulating temperature and better air quality. A key component of these systems is the refrigerant, which undergoes phase changes to absorb and release warm air, thereby cooling the air.

  5. split system is an air-conditioning or heat pump system that uses refrigerant as the heat exchange fluid and has an evaporator, compressor, and condenser as separate components. In most modern commercial applications, the compressor and condenser are combined into a single piece of equipment called a condensing unit.

    • The Compressor. Imagine a massive pipe filled with rushing steam. The steam enters into a machine, which then turns on and rumbles. When the steam leaves the machine (in a different pipe than it came in through), the steam is extremely high-pressure, moving extremely fast.
    • The Condenser. Upon leaving the compressor, the high-pressure gas refrigerant enters the condenser, where the gas becomes a liquid. Picture a twisting coil of pipes that is pumped full of hot, pressurized water vapor.
    • The Expansion Valve/Capillary Tube. The refrigerant has left the condenser as a high-pressure liquid. A high-pressure refrigerant, just like high-pressure water, wants to shoot through the pipes really fast.
    • The Evaporator. The evaporator does the exact opposite of the condenser. Instead of turning the refrigerant from gas to liquid, it turns the refrigerant from liquid to gas (thus the name “evaporator”).
  6. The split system air conditioner works by using a refrigerant to absorb heat from the indoor air and release it outside. The refrigerant, which is typically a liquid, is circulated through the two units by a compressor. The compressor compresses the refrigerant, causing it to become a high-pressure gas.

  7. Aug 14, 2024 · An HVAC refrigerant, or AC refrigerant, is a liquid or gaseous cooling compound that helps your air conditioner or heat pump cool your home in the warmer months. During the refrigeration cycle, refrigerants absorb and transfer heat to the outside.
