3. Questions about A/C compressor oil, refrigerant quantity, and compatibility?

• How much oil does my compressor need?
  The oil quantity varies depending on your vehicle’s A/C system capacity. Always check your vehicle’s manual or consult a professional.
• What type of oil should I use (PAG46, PAG100, PAG150, or Hybrid)?
  The type of oil depends on the specific A/C compressor and vehicle. For accurate recommendations, share your vehicle’s details with us.
• Which refrigerant should I use: R134a or R1234yf?
  The type of refrigerant depends on your car’s A/C system. For modern vehicles, R1234yf is commonly used, while R134a is more common for older models.

2. Measure Condenser Space: Measure the available space where the condenser will be installed (e.g., 14x20 inches).
3. Choose the Evaporator Unit: Decide if you want a cooling-only evaporator (4 vents) or a heat-and-cool unit with more vents (5 or 6 vents).

If you’re unsure, consult your vehicle’s manual or contact a professional.

  While our kits come with clear installation instructions, we recommend professional installation to ensure optimal performance. DIY installation is possible for those experienced with automotive systems.
