Comparing old R22 and modern eco-friendly R410A refrigerants, and their impact on cooling speeds and compressor lifespan in Saudi Arabia.
Eco-friendly Refrigerant Standards in KSA
Under new SASO regulations, older ozone-depleting R22 gases have been phased out. Modern split and central ACs now run on **R410A refrigerant**, which is highly efficient under extreme outdoor temperatures.
Benefits of R410A
- Higher Heat Absorption: R410A absorbs and releases heat more efficiently, resulting in faster cooling.
- Less Compressor Stress: Systems designed for R410A use synthetic lubricants that reduce friction and extend motor life.
- Ozone Safe: Contains no chlorine, making it compliant with environmental protection initiatives.
