    I'm not under the impression that it does any good. It's clearly just government mandated propaganda designed to beat the installer into submission.

    350 is better than anything I can find right now. I can't get a 30lb tank for less than 450! The writing is on the wall and I feel what's coming is going to be painful.

    Have the new class 8 trucks started using 1234yf refrigerant yet? Some new cars are using it. If you think 134A is expensive, check out the price of 1234yf...

    It's almost as-if the manufacturers of synthetic HFC-substitute refrigerants were in league with unelected government regulators or something.

    You already know the answer to that question. It's going to be like r12 but much more painful.

    Not compatible. I'm not sure if you can convert one to the other like you could with R12 to R134A.
     
    Jammer' Thanks this.
