You will lose about 10°C of the heating capacity if you run on R22 according to Calorex.

Some data on pages 5 & 6 of this...

We are going to replace the heatpump (considering the maintenance cost), not calorex, as per the document heat pump capacity is 70 kw.i dont know whether it is correct.becaust as per the compressor calculation ,compressor capacity is 10 ton. can anybody tell me what the actual heating capacity of calorex AW703BHC.

The heat output clue is in the unit reference, but please read the document in the link already given and you will see the list of duties.

Hi guys, is it possible to use the R22 equivalent compressor and change the oil to make it work on R134a?

I have problems getting R134a(R407C) compressors as these are always not in stock. The R22 equivalent are be easily available though.

ie. Sanyo Scroll CSCN753H8H(R22) replace with CSC753H8H(R407C) with an oil change.

Anyone can enlighten on this? Thanks.
