R410A GUIDE

R-410A=Big Changes
As the HVAC industry prepares to move to R-410A refrigerant, are you ready? The change to this new refrigerant will mean big changes to the way you install, maintain, and service air conditioners and heat pumps.

, 2010 AN 1ST NE J EADLI D

Your evaporator coil will need to be changed when converting to R410A. Old R22 Coils are nor compatible with the new refrigerant and POE oils

R-22 Condensers can no longer be made after Dec. 31st, 2009

Lineset sizes have changed with many R410A systems. They must also be properly flushed or changed when upgrading to R410A

New Tools will be required due to the higher pressure of R410A. Manifolds, Hoses, Recovery Machines, Etc.

R-410A Guide
R410A
R410A operates at higher pressures than the traditional air conditioning refrigerant R22, (1 x R22.). So are the currently used tools, controls, copper pipe, and other components suitable for R410A systems?

Brazing
The higher operating pressures of R410A require the use of brazing instead of soldering. A high quality brazing compound with 15% silver is recommended.

Gauges, Gauge Manifolds and Charging Hoses

Existing R22 gauges, manifolds and charging hoses must not be used with R410A. The safe working pressures are not high enough for R410A. Hoses and Manifolds should not be used on BOTH R410A & R22.

Purging
When brazing copper linesets, you should always run nitrogen thru the lines while you are brazing to prevent oxidation inside the lines.

Superheat / Subcooling Refrigerant Recovery Machines

Most currently used reclaim machines will not be suitable because of the higher operating pressures of R410A. In addition to charging as a liquid, you will need to charge your R410A systems by the superheat / subcooling method. If you dont already have a dual input temperature meter, you will need one to properly calculate superheat / subcooling.

Evacuation
Moisture in R410A systems can cause significant problems. Proper evacuation is more important than ever to ensure proper operation and life expectancy of new equipment. Vacuums to 500 microns are standard practice on R410A installations.

In order to help ease the pain as you purchase the tools you need for R410A, Capitol Supplies is offering the following rebates: Purchase $ 250.00 $ 500.00 $1000.00 $1500.00 Rebate Amount $ 25.00 $ 50.00 $100.00 $150.00

Flushing / Lineset Changeout

Existing refrigerant lines should only be reused where changing them is not feasible. When reusing the lines, a suitable Flushing Agent (like Diversitech Pro-Flush) should be used to properly clean the linesets, and remove the old R22 refrigerant oils

Rebates will be issued as a VISA GIFT CARD. To claim rebate, submit a copy of your paid invoice along with rebate claim form to our office. Valid only on tools and prices offered in this promotion
