Christy (and her husband Larry) own a heating and air business and are generally very helpful. I don't know much about servicing bus A/C units, and I didn't get the idea that you did either. Questions like "Do I have to charge compressor seperate from condenser and do I need two kits to do it?" don't really indicate a knowledge of these systems. Her post was meant to keep from causing problems or hurting yourself, not as an insult. She indicates this in the last line of her poste "Please do not be offended as this post, as is not intended to denigrate you, it is merely meant to save you from hurting yourself or your a/c system." I ask a lot of questions on this and the BNO board. I sometimes get answers that I don't agree with. I do try to respond politely to those that bother to post. When people take time out of their day to try and help me, how can I be anything other than appreciative? David

So, I guess I missed way out on something. . I thought someone was talking about their R-12 bus air system, converting it to R134. If I sounded stupid or something, I apologize, but I guess I didn't realize that he was talking OTR air. I sure did my best to be polite, just concerned if they were talking about rooftop a/c units or the OTR air that originally had 12. I didn't see any other posts, so I don't know what was said after mine, as I just now checked the site, so I just will assume that I must have insulted someone or said something someone took wrong. If so, I apologize. Believe it or not, we run across quite a few people who think that R-22 and R-12 are the same thing and are interchangeable. I personally know of someone who insisted that their home and truck used the same freon, going so far as to trying to put R-22 in it and destroying a compressor. I realize now that being unfamiliar with new busses, I didn't realize that OTR a/c units had R-22 in, and if they did, why someone would choose to go to R134, which is again, why my brain was saying R-12. So, if I said something wrong, I apologize, but if someone doesn't mind, could you contact me privately, and let me know what all I said wrong, because I thought I was making it clear I meant no offense, and since I didn't see any of the other posts, I'm assuming I was the one who said something offensive. I'd prefer not to let it happen again. Christy Hicks
