Oxygen depletion is the issue. No O2=death. A few folks have done this and died. It's not from the buzz you get, it is from passing out and not getting oxygen in your lungs. Freon is heavier than air so it lays in your lungs at the bottom. Stay alive. Don't breathe freon without someone around who is on oxygen and can get you away from the freon and into the air when you pass out. lc

What are the dangers of breathing freon fumes inside leaking from your ac unit?

Freon is a nerve gas and will cause you to twitch over time. More immediate effects would be death by asphyxiation. Freon is heavier than air and if breathed it will settle in the bottom of your lungs and not come out. Have your Technician check your system and if he adds freon but does not fix the leak fire him immediately and please contact the EPA for this is very dangerous and illegal. Not to mention the fact that it is a huge rip-off to the customer.


Can you get freon poisoning from your air conditioner?

No. Freon is non-toxic, but one can suffocate from breathing Freon, just as one might suffocate from breathing carbon dioxide and not getting fresh air within 10-30 seconds, or so. Freon's lack of toxicity is precisely why it revolutionized refrigeration, particularly in the home, in the 1930s.
