RED TEK recharge kit

I gor 2 in a box. So if my charge runs out. I have another 😊

Perfect for 2007 Honda Civic!

6 days ago
This was my first time filling up my AC Refrigerant in any vehicle, after some searching around I found this kit, I did this on my 2007 Honda Civix LX and it was super easy to do, you’ve got to be a dummy if you can’t follow the simple instructions, I was able to get my AC working within 5 to 10 mins. Before filling up my refrigerant my AC was blowing super hot air, not a trace of refrigerant in there, and now it’s blowing nice and cold, according to the pressure gauge my Refrigerant had been completely drained out so for my system it took 1 whole can with just a little bit leftover at the bottom of the can. Make sure to check if this kit is compatible with your vehicle, lift up the hood and you’ll find the number or it’s an easy google search.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Good product. Need adapter

18 days ago
I would have given a five star rating if the package had contained the adaptor for the R134a fittings which is required to recharge an older system, as it is indicated on the package. Otherwise, the product works fine.

Q: Refill for R134a Hi, Can I use the kit to refill the AC of my car which is running now on R134a? Thanks,

  • A: Not advised to mix refrigerants. Evacuate 134a first. Two cans in kit are sufficient to charge system when a can of sealer is also used.

Q: can this be added to existing r12 freon Is this compatable with r12, that you can just top up existing freon or do you need to drain and then add this product. Is there any reason it can not be used in household a/c as r12 replacement.

Q: I have tried to use this, followed the instructions but still the refrigerant is not flowing through the hose. Is there something wrong with the gauge and the hose?

3 years ago
3 Answers
  • A: Ya it sounds like you might not have punctured the top of the can. Did you screw the “ dial “ down all the way and then back up again? p.s. screw the “ dial “ back down again to seal the can if you don’t use the whole can. Leave the hose and fitting on the can in case you need a top up in a few months or a year.

Q: does this product have a leak sealer

5 years ago
3 Answers
  • A: The tape works great when pulled as it is applied so that the sealing with activate. I had a pretty big leak on a large house drain tube and wrapped it around about three or four times pulling the tape taut and the thing stopped leaking. I needed to sometimes cut the tape to overlap hard to get at the back against a wall but the tape sticks to itself well. It saved me a lot of work in not having to replace that pipe.

Q: Top-up Redtek a12 to a R12? I have a R12 car a/c. The compressor goes on/off frequently. If I just top-up it with Redtek a12 w/o purging the system, will it save my time? If someone knows this, would you please let me know? I don't want to damage my system too. Thanks. K. wu.

3 Answers
  • A: You most likely have a leak somewhere, so a topup will probably work until it leaks out again.... that is if you somehow manage to add the right amount without adding too much and ending up damaging your compressor. Also, keep in mind that by using this product you will contaminate your system with air and humidity which will eventually cause damage to the internal components.
