134a is not that expensive & I doubt your new system will require that much . And if the old dehumidifier used 134a , staying with it avoids problems with comparability between different refrigeration oils .

I will look deeper into the reversing valve and frost thermostat and employ them to defrost in cold weather.

A few questions I have off the top of my hat are:

Once its built can I pressure test my brazing with compressed air ?.. since its just a cheapo system..

What *affordable* refrigerant can I use , if any, in place of the R134a used by dehumidifier's compressor currently ?

Compressor # LG NR58HAQG

Motor type : RSIR, PTC
Displacement : 58
