Care on Not to Care - That is the Question
Evening all,
I seem to be coming accross more and more units that were originally on Care but have since had normal gas (R134/404) put in them. I was just wondering is this a common practice or is it just a case of engineers without a care ticket getting round it.
I must admit, i dont like care, it seems to knock compressors out far quicker when they have a blocked condenser and would there fore question the environmental benifits of using it.
Your thoughts please

Perhaps we should mention that CARE is a trade name for the hydrocarbon range of gases here in the UK.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK

Re: Care on Not to Care - That is the Question
Ok guys,
Sorry, had an Essex boy moment and thought care was worldwide. I am talking about propane and associated gases R600,290,1270,170 etc
hope this clarifies the original post

Up to date I have been recharging with R49 as I have no experience or training with Care, the only problem I have found when changing the gas is the compressor is then considerably oversized, I am actually attending the Care course on 16th January.
