    Is it for domestic or commercial use?

    Might work out cheaper to just buy it ready frozen till you budget allows for a new ice maker.
    Can't really recommend any R502 substitutes as we don't get the same refrigerants in the UK. (the refrigerant i last used as a drop in for R502 has also since been banned here , but haven't worked on any R502 stuff for 8 or 9 years...)
