WTH!

Almost all cars newer than 1994 use HFC-134a (also known as R-134a IIRC). Banning this would require us to use alternatives which are more combustible in a vehicle’s AC system.

Not to mention I just rolled over my weekend toy from R-12 to R-134a and miss R-12 dearly!!

134-A is the refrigerant that’s used by our automotive AC systems. Say good-bye to your car air conditioning.

That’s EXACTLY what I first thought.

Wasn’t it about 17 years ago the last refrigerant was banned???
