A lot of times they get serviced with propane or other gases, that work like refrigerant, but are actually explosive. They were selling that shit here in Arizona as a way to quickly recharge your car A/C.
Doesn't work very well, and they probably next called the dead guy to come and look at their air conditioner, and when he started messing with it, he set it off, not knowing what it had been serviced with as far as a type of refrigerant.

The guy who pumped propane in it is at home with his kids, watching a soccer match. No skin off of his ass.

Too bad he was in this accident. He was very cute prior.

Aren't there 2 guys? I was only watching the guy walk toward the AC but isn't there a guy crouched down already working on it? Did they both die? I didn't notice the 2nd guy until the 2nd video....

This is a good reminder not to work on an AC unit and let the pros handle it… oh wait

New HVAC position available

It would be the compressor exploding. That why there are high pressure sensors. Would shut the unit off....

Quite literally.

Recharging an auto a/c with propane? I'm happy I never got caught up in that shit. Never knew it was a thing.
