Replacing CFC Aircons with HFC-134A [Merged]

[zero]

baka naman mas mura pa ipa-tanggal muna ang a/c compressor bago pumunta sa LTO para magpa-register kesa ipa-convert??

[jtdc]

they can know the freon type using a gauge? hindi ba pwedeng ok na pag nakitang pang R134a na compressor eh ok na?

[theveed]

and what if walang AC oto mo hehe labo nila, daming loopholes. I mean, a guy with R12 can simply make "singaw" his freon prior to checking or disable the compressor and tell the inspector the car's AC isn't used etc etc...

[zechs]

naku, yung ride namin pre-1999 model pa! and its true come 2006, hindi na bibigyan ng registration ang cars equipped with R12 model na AC.

yeah, ano ba kailangang palitan para maging R134 model? tulong zeagle!

LTO to reject cars with old aircon units

Consider getting a new aircon unit for your car.

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) announced that the Land Transportation Office (LTO) will reject the registration of vehicles which do not use non-chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) agents in their car’s air-conditioning unit starting next year, January 1, 2006.

According to the DENR, the move will be done in an effort to fulfill the government’s commitment with the 1988 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer to phase out the use of ozone depleting substances (ODS).

The Philippines is expected to complete the phase out by year 2010.

The use of CFCs in the aircon systems is a violation of the Clean Air Act. Motorists are advised to shift to HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) instead of CFCs.

is this true?

ito ba yung r12 r134 freon??

hala! gastos nanaman!

[yebo]

R12 po yung banned. R134A yung replacement na hindi ozone depleting.

dapat i-ban na din nila operation ng Malacanang, Senate, Batasan, NAIAA, Heart Center, and almost all govt offices built before 1995. puro R11/12/22 gamit ng mga aircon ng mga building na yun ha! di pa naman napalitan ang mga centralized aircons ng mga old govt buildings no!

btw, alam nyo ba na yung R134A na gamit sa aircon ng cars nyo e causes permanent sterility sa mga boys? yup, inhale enough of that and you can forget having babies.

[falken]

Almost 90% naman siguro ng mga pre 1999 cars R134a na gamit, alam ko Honda 1996 models R134a na, and kung nagpalinis naman ng aircon yung ibang lumang sasakyan malamang R134a na rin kinakarga.

Ok palit na naman ng compressor kahit ayos pa ang compressor ko which cost me 5,000 I think...
Sabi dati sa unang hirit sa GMA-7 may interview sila na taga LTO gagawa pa daw sila ng paraan para madetect kung HFC gamit mo o hindi..
Balita ko rin marami na nagrereklamo.

[blebla]

mga ser approx how much would it cost me kaya para maka comply ako d2? my ride is a 'rolla 96. TIA
