Yep R14 isn't really an HFC (hydrofluorocarbons) like some people think, but more accurately a PFC (perfluorocarbons) or sometimes also simply called an FC (fluorocarbons). So although the HFC's are readily miscible with POE, I'm not sure if the same can be said for R14. Although with POE you'll stand a better chance, then with AB or Mineral oil.
At one of the places I work, it is standard practice to retrofit dual or even triple series fed oil separators in units that have been experiencing oil freeze-up problems.
