Hello, I need to buy R410a refrigerant in bulk and I want to be sure that I will get a quality product at a reasonable price. It is clear that there are a lot of offers on the Internet, but how can I understand which of them are really reliable? I would not like to run into unscrupulous sellers or intermediaries who inflate prices or offer products of dubious quality. Maybe someone has already been through this and can suggest proven places where you can buy R410a refrigerant in bulk without unnecessary risk?
