Back in the day we used that cold stuff AKA Freon (because it really was R12 back then) for target practice. Why, 'cause you could tell if you hit it or not without walking all the way all the way down there to look. It was my friend Al Gore's idea. He kept spilling his beer going to look.

Negative. Even R-12 is just a refrigerant. R-12,R410a, R-134a, R-22, R-404a. Be it a CFC, HCFC, HFC or whatever the chemical compound it is a refrigerant. "Freon" is a trade name from the Chemours Company (Dupont)

“Freon” is a registered TRADEMARK and brand name.

So is Hoover, Xerox, Polaroid, Coke, and a whole host of other names used generically by the public. What's your point?

Possibly to educate just one person that the term Freon is imprecise and outdated. Once in a while some education actually does occur here.

OK. I learned something :)

No you didnt. It's Refrigerant. Had to add to the topic as nobody has stated exactly what it is yet...that I have read, maybe I missed it.

Apparently to remove any reference to what 'sensor' we're talking about.

Yes of course. I know you know and why.

I thought Freightguy wanted proof. In reality he just wanted to read the manual.
