One would assume that all newer refrigerator's have this type of coolant. Most likely all residents south of 466A have This type of coolant. I have never heard of a refrigerator explosion. I am making an "educated guess" that is very rare and a "freak happening".The Villages have been using Whirlpool for the last few years and unless the resident purchased something different after home was built it was a Whirlpool Refrigerator.

Hopefully we will hear more as the investigation completes.
