Important R449A Product Information
R449A is an A1 zeotropic blend for compatible commercial refrigeration and approved R404A or R507 retrofit applications.
Confirm R449A System Approval Use only in compatible equipment or an engineered retrofit
R449A is used in medium- and low-temperature refrigeration, but it is not a top-off replacement for another refrigerant.
- Do not add R449A on top of R404A, R507, or another refrigerant.
- Confirm compressor, valve, control, seal, and lubricant compatibility.
- Follow the equipment or retrofit manufacturer's instructions.
Professional Retrofit Procedure Recover, evacuate, leak-test, and recommission
Retrofit and service work should be completed by appropriately EPA Section 608-certified personnel.
- Recover the original refrigerant completely.
- Make required component and control adjustments.
- Record R449A and the final charge on the equipment label.
25 lb R449A Cylinder Factory-filled zeotropic refrigerant blend
The cylinder contains 25 lb (11.3 kg) net weight of R449A. Inspect the label, valve, seal, and package before use.
- Keep the cylinder upright and secured.
- Do not use a damaged or leaking cylinder.
- Confirm the required quantity and connection before ordering.
Charge as Liquid Maintain blend composition and account for temperature glide
R449A should be transferred from the cylinder in the liquid phase and charged by weight.
- Meter liquid safely to prevent compressor damage.
- Use appropriate dew-point and bubble-point data.
- Verify superheat, subcooling, controls, and discharge temperature.
Operating and Storage Checks Complete system verification and protect the cylinder
Commission the converted system according to the retrofit guide and follow the Safety Data Sheet.
- Check operating limits and discharge temperature.
- Store the cylinder in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
- Review the Shipping & Returns tab before ordering.

FAQ
Is R449A compatible with my system?
Use R449A only when specified by the equipment manufacturer or an approved retrofit plan. It is not interchangeable with R404A, R448A, or another refrigerant. Before purchasing, check the equipment nameplate and manufacturer documentation. If you are unsure, send us a clear photo of the nameplate and consult a qualified technician.
What is R449A commonly used for?
R449A refrigerant blend is intended for compatible commercial refrigeration and low-temperature equipment. The listed applications are general guidance only; the equipment nameplate and manufacturer specification determine the correct refrigerant.
How much refrigerant is included in the R449A cylinder?
The cylinder contains 25 lb (11.3 kg) net weight of R449A refrigerant. Net contents do not include the cylinder tare weight or outer packaging. Verify the product label, seal, and cylinder condition when the shipment arrives.
Can I mix R449A with another refrigerant or use it as a drop-in replacement?
No. Refrigerants are not interchangeable and should not be mixed. Use only the refrigerant approved for the equipment. Any conversion or retrofit must follow the equipment or retrofit manufacturer's written requirements and be completed by a qualified professional.
Do I need a certified technician to handle R449A?
A qualified refrigeration professional should confirm system compatibility, lubricant, controls, and approved service procedures before installation or charging. Purchasing, handling, recovery, transport, and installation requirements may vary by product, application, and location. Confirm the rules that apply to you before ordering or using the product.
What are the shipping cost and delivery time for R449A?
Shipping is $30 per cylinder and updates with quantity. Orders ship from the United States within 24 business hours, and estimated delivery is 3–5 business days. Tracking is provided after dispatch. Carrier and hazardous-material restrictions may apply.
What should I do if the R449A cylinder arrives damaged or appears to leak?
Do not use the cylinder if it is leaking, the valve is damaged, or the package appears unsafe. Keep it away from heat, flames, and occupied indoor areas, and do not attempt a repair. Contact support with the order number and clear photos of the cylinder, valve, damage, packaging, shipping label, and batch code so the issue can be reviewed.
Can I return an unopened R449A cylinder?
A return must be requested within 30 days. Only unused, unopened cylinders in their original condition and packaging are eligible. Contact support for approval before returning regulated goods. Specialized carrier requirements may apply, return shipping costs are the customer’s responsibility, and refunds are issued after inspection.
