- s0rce 5y agoMy old fridge used propane from the manufacturer, sadly it only lasted a few years and repair was more expensive than another one. The new one uses a more conventional refrigerant.
- userbinator 5y agoNote the buildup of frost on the return tube all the way to the pump. That's a clear sign that you've massively overcharged it! I agree with his position about environmentalists, but I think he should at least learn a bit more about the science first. YouTube can help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLauVofEDzY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLauVofEDzY (All the refrigerant should boil off in the evaporator, and the return out of the cabinet should contain only room-temperature vapor. Frosting all the way back to the compressor wastes power cooling what doesn't need to be cooled, and can damage the compressor with liquid refrigerant.)
