      Anybody have experience using one of the hydrocarbon replacements for R22 freon in home air conditioning?

      There’s a lot of emotion and misleading information around about this issue. I’m wondering if anyone has real experience?

      What problems will I run into if I try it?

      I’m going to install my own central air, and I can either call a guy out to fill with R22, or I can buy one of the hydrocarbon replacements and do it myself.

      Aren’t those type of substitutes for R-22 just propane, or some similar very flammable gas?
