Yes, Frostmeister works with both types of air conditioning – both manual and automatic. Both systems use the same basic cooling components.

Yes, Frostmeister can be used in the air conditioning systems
of hybrid and electric cars, provided they use refrigerant R-134a or R-1234yf.

If the air conditioning system is sealed, the effect
of filling lasts just as long as after a service replacement
of the refrigerant. 

The natural loss is about 10% per year, so it's worth regularly checking the pressure in the system. If necessary, just reach for Frostmeister and replenish the missing refrigerant to keep the air conditioning working efficiently throughout the season.

Yes, Frostmeister can be used regularly if there is a
need to replenish the refrigerant.

Frostmeister should be stored in a cool, dry place, away
from direct sunlight. You can safely keep it in the trunk and have it always on hand to use exactly when you need it.

After opening, Frostmeister products can be stored for two years, provided they are kept in a dry place and are not exposed to direct sunlight.

You don't have to worry! Frostmeister products are equipped
with a check valve that prevents the refrigerant from escaping after opening
the can. This way, you can safely store the unused amount of the product
and use it at any time when needed.

Frostmeister 2w1 is the ideal solution for tight
air conditioning systems that only require a refrigerant top-up. It is suitable if air conditioning service has not been performed for a long time, but the system is still functioning properly.

However, if the refrigerant is leaking quickly, it may indicate minor leaks in the system. In that case, a better choice would be Frostmeister 3w1, which, in addition to refrigerant and oil, also contains a sealant. Its action helps to close micro-cracks and assist in restoring the system's tightness.

Additionally, all Frostmeister products contain a UV dye, which allows for easy detection of potential leaks using a UV lamp and enables quick appropriate actions.

Yes, the Frostmeister refrigerant is fully compatible with R-134a and R-1234yf. It is important to choose the appropriate substitute according to the label on the product.
