Ding Ding Ding! We got a winner!

I was shocked when my new fridge was delivered an there were all these warning stickers on the back
of my fridge! They are forcing us to put ticking time bombs in our houses. These ECO Refrigerators
fueled the deadly Grenfell Tower Fire in London which killed 72 people:

= = =

Right, but I think the article indicates they don’t want to refrigerate items as they are shipped.

“We already got new age flammable coolant in fridges sold now”

Not as dangerous as you think. Europe has used R600 and R299 for more than a decade. Sams club sells deep freezers that use R600 I own two of them they just quietly hum away in the garage. They have hermetically sealed compressors ,condenser and evaporators unless you tool bolt cutters to the coils they can’t leak.even if they did leak the volume in them is like 500 grams worth not enough to form a flammable mixture of 2% to 8% in a normal sized room. I had a K5 blazer that used R12 and when it was banned I filled it with butane and propane till it hit the low side pressure range in the green on the gauge pack took less than a red camping cans worth that’s 12oz. It worked flawlessly for years it would frost the vents it got so cold. It’s FUD that hydrocarbons are not great refrigerants and safe to use. DuPont wants to sell you $80 a 8oz can of 1234yf not a $2 can of isobutane-propane mix
