Market Insight: In the Nigerian automotive sector, Harp® R-134a is the “Elite Choice.” For owners of high-value vehicles—Toyota Prados, Range Rovers, and Mercedes-Benz—Harp® is the only gas trusted to prevent the expensive “Black Death” (compressor seizure) caused by low-grade refrigerants. Elins Nigeria positions Harp® as the ultimate insurance for your vehicle’s comfort. If you want your car AC to feel “factory fresh” even in Lagos traffic, Harp® is the answer.
Safety Note for : R-134a is compatible with synthetic lubricants (PAG and POE); it MUST NOT be mixed with the Mineral Oil used in older R-12 systems. Elins Nigeria Technical Advice: Because R-134a molecules are smaller than R-12, ensure you use high-quality barrier hoses and gaskets during service to prevent slow leaks. Always vacuum the system to at least 500 microns before charging to remove all moisture, as synthetic oils are highly sensitive to water.
