FAQ
We have collected answers to the most frequently asked questions
Is Frostmeister compatible with every car?
Frostmeister fits all vehicles that use
the refrigerant R-134a (1995-2016) or R-1234yf (from 2017) in
the air conditioning system. This makes it suitable for use in most passenger cars.
NOTE: Some models require an HP/LP adapter, which you can find
in our Amazon listings. This applies to the following vehicles:
Audi – A4 B4 (1994)
Ford – Fiesta (2007), Galaxy (2009), Transit (2009)
Kia – Ceed (2007)
Nissan – Qashqai (2015, 2016)
Mazda – 2015 models
Mitsubishi – Colt (2006)
Renault – Laguna 2, Mégane 2, Trafic 2, Clio 2, Espace 2, Master 2, Scenic
2, Vel Satis 2
Does Frostmeister work for both manual and automatic air conditioning?
Yes, Frostmeister works with both types of air conditioning – both manual and automatic. Both systems use the same basic cooling components.
Can I use Frostmeister in hybrid and electric cars?
Yes, Frostmeister can be used in air conditioning systems
of hybrid and electric cars, provided they use refrigerant R-134a or R-1234yf.
How long does the effect last after refilling?
If the air conditioning system is sealed, the filling effect lasts just as long as after a service refrigerant replacement.
The natural loss is about 10% per year, so it is worth regularly checking the system pressure. If necessary, just reach for Frostmeister and refill the missing refrigerant to keep the air conditioning working efficiently throughout the season.
Can I use Frostmeister regularly?
Yes, Frostmeister can be used regularly if there is a need to replenish the refrigerant.
How to store Frostmeister?
Frostmeister is best stored in a cool, dry place, away
from direct sunlight. You can safely keep it in the trunk and always have it on hand to use exactly when you need it.
How long can I store Frostmeister after opening?
After opening, Frostmeister products can be stored for two years, provided they are kept in a dry place and not exposed to direct sunlight.
What should I do if I don't use the entire contents of the product?
You don't have to worry! Frostmeister products are equipped
with a check valve that prevents the refrigerant from escaping after opening
the can. Thanks to this, you can safely store and use the unused amount of the product at any time when needed.
When to use Frostmeister 2-in-1 and when Frostmeister 3-in-1?
Frostmeister 2-in-1 is the perfect solution for sealed
air conditioning systems that only require refrigerant replenishment. It is suitable if the air conditioning service has not been performed for a long time, but the system still works properly.
However, if the refrigerant quickly leaks out, it may indicate minor leaks in the system. In such a case, a better choice is Frostmeister 3-in-1, which, in addition to refrigerant and oil, also contains a sealant. Its action helps close microcracks and restore system tightness.
Additionally, all Frostmeister products contain UV dye, allowing easy detection of any leaks with a UV lamp and quick appropriate action.
Can I use it if there is already a different refrigerant in the air conditioning system?
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.
