Read this, you will find there all you need to know about retrofitting R22:

If your wanting to use the existing compressor and maintain the current temperature the answer would be no if this were the typical refrigerant or air cooled compressors. R-22 is a high pressure gas and R134a is a low pressure gas.
More information is needed, such as model numbers, application, etc. for a definitive answer.
thanks for the reply & info ..
but i think the 1st link is not available:
Sorry, try search forum with keywords "R22 to R134a".Quote:

Please provide more information about the job.;)
duly noted...thanks again for the help & info
cheers & more power to this forum!!!
