RS-44 (R424A) Refrigerant

RS-44 (R424A) is a non-flammable blend of R125, R134a, R601a, R600, and R600a. RS-44 is a legacy drop-in replacement for R22 with significantly lower discharge temperatures and pressures, widening the applications for use. RS-44 is being replaced by RS-70 which offer the same zero ODP benefits with higher performance, and lower GWP.
