Reply to "Air conditioning"

Just noticed that earlier in this posting someone inquired about my condensor conversion. This conversion was of my own design and not from PI. I did it several years ago. I researched a universal condensor out of the catalogs at the auto parts place. I made a shroud and added a high performance fan. The results of the conversion and test were documented in a POCA newsletter and on the Email forum. It works quite well, but the a closed deck lid or the tub causes reduced performance. I plan to mount the same condensor up front for better air flow.

Another comment about alternatives. I have tried them and they work well. FridgC, Freeze12 and Envirosafe all work but have the disadvantage of availability and not being able to top off. Also, with a proper condensor, the 134 only runs about 5% higher pressure than the R12 which makes it no problem wiht the york compressor. The condensor is the biggest problem.
