    Up to 6 depending upon where in the world you live and what temperature the system is running but the main R-22 lubricant is a mineral based oil and some of the newer synthetic styles are also compatible for lower evaporator temperature usage if care is taken since the newer synthetic oils can cause a problem with oil return from the evaporator..
