REFRIGERANT

This unit uses a non-explosive flammable refrigerant
gas, R32, which can be ignited by fire.
The refrigerant used in this unit is the fluoride R32, which
is specially cleaned. The refrigerant is considered mildly
flammable and has no odor.
Compared to common refrigerants, R32 is a nonpolluting
refrigerant with no harm to the ozonosphere. The influence
upon the greenhouse effect is also lower. R32 has very
good thermodynamic features and high energy efficiency.
The units therefore need less filling.
