What is the difference between regular propane and the refrigerant propane that is used to manufacture the DURACOOL ® products?
The propane that is regularly used for barbecues, and general consumer or commercial use is a by product or deritive of the hydrocarbon manufacturing process(the production and refining of raw oil products.) The propane used for standard applications (such as your home barbeque). In order to utilize the product as “refrigerant grade” the product is further refined to render out methane gases and other impurities. This refrigerant propane is different in many ways, most notably is the disparity in the auto ignition. Essentially this refining makes the product safer and more stable. The Auto ignition for regular grade propane is ~842 F., while the DURACOOL® products auto ignition is ~1635F.
