Default What’s good for the fast food salesman isn’t good for the air-conditioning technician.

I thought the refrigerant FREON was banned because it contained
Fluorine, so how come it’s still being used in Perfluoroalkyl. Is
this hypocrisy or what?

one should probably investigate what the differences are before
asking this inane question. freon is chlorofluorocarbon. that isn't
even remotely like perfluroalkyl, even though it has fluorine in it.
there are many items with fluorine in it that are not comparable to
freon.


I was hoping that someone like you might educate us on those
“differences”.


the interweb broken where you are today?
