I've several old engineering manuals that put ammonia gas as #1 for

You probably won't find the information you need out of a catalog,
efficiency depends on a lot of things, one reason the books are so

Back when I was in grade school (1940s) a family had one (household
refrigerator using amonia) leak, fortunately only the pet (forget
what kind of pet) was home. Did it in. Nasty stuff to breathe.
