Hi gspssk
You will need to inform us as to what compressor you have.
When converting to R22 ( don't know why you could use R413a) may involve re-sizing pipework and definately you will need a bigger condenser.
Please advise the forum on more information please and why you want to use R22.
Regards
Lrac

Re: R12 to R22 changing
bad move for lots of reasons that will take an age to type, spend your time reseaching the best drop in available for the application,your refrigerant supplier will help you,

Re: R12 to R22 changing
Compressor can't handle the additional load associated with R22 and asLrac said, much bigger condensor.
And, your evaporator isn't designed for this.It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Is this for the same plant where you want the duct calculation?

Re: R12 to R22 changing
R 134A is usually recommended for a drop in for R12.You will need to watch out for seal compatability and oil compatability as they tend to break down with R134A.I agree don't consider R22 as this out.You could consider R407c but you may as well design a new sytem.Best bet is a drop in.

Re: R12 to R22 changing
Well it is a drop in after an oil change and some slight adjustments
