Hello All…A New Year again…Hopefully yours was good….
I started this site last year to “put my feelers out” about what owners and captains may want to learn and share about marine a/c.
The support has been more than I ever expected…
So… My New Year resolution to you is expand the site we created…Because of your feedback I am going to begin adding to my store to allow you to order most of the common Marine A/C system items that I found you’ve needed, but until the store is fully operational…As always I’m here for you to contact…
Some important information…Sadly…Due to EPA regulations there will be no more R-22 systems/units produced in 2010…
- If you need to replace a R-22 condensing unit in an existing system…You will need to purchase a R-417A unit, evacuate your R-22 (which you would do anyway) and re-charge the system with R-417A (drop in replacement for R-22)…No need to change the air handler.
- For new installations (split system or self contained) the systems have been re-designed to operate with environmentally friendly R-410A which operates at much higher pressures that the existing R-22 or R-417A systems…These R-410A units can Not be paired with the older air handlers.
Your local A/C guy will know what to do & have the equipment to make the change.
Your comments & feedback are always welcome & appreciated…I need things to help me write…So ask away…It does stir the thoughts…
Clean Sea Strainers to All, and to All a Good Year…Think of the A/C/Heat/ Refer Guy…He Does You…
