Can the typical RV roof AC unit be recharged with Freon?

Yes, they can. BUT, to NEED Freon, there has to be a leak in the metal sealed system. There are no rubber or any type seals that can leak like a home or Auto type system. So, if you need Freon, then you must FIND the leak, fix the leak, then install Schrader valves and evacuate and charge. THAT process takes more time and money than just replacing the upper unit. RV units have had this design for over 50 years. Doug
Thank you, I was going to ask that very question. So if it's low on Freon then there has to be a leak. Is it possible for the Freon just to go bad over time and need to be replaced?
No. Doug
