404A

R-404A is an HFC refrigerant blend commonly used in commercial refrigeration, particularly for low-temperature applications like supermarket freezers. Originally developed as a replacement for R-502, it remains widely used despite its high global warming potential (GWP), which has prompted a shift to more environmentally friendly alternatives in many regions.
