The photo above is of a real condenser coil we cleaned. The outer fins looked OK, but dirt and lint were packed deep inside. We also had sky-high head pressure and condensing temperature; those are telltale signs of an impacted condenser. That situation illustrates that a coil can sometimes look OK at first glance but […]

In a series circuit (loads connected in a row end to end), it's easy to calculate total circuit resistance because you simply add up all the resistances to get the total. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same across all the loads; the amperage is simply added up, but the resistance is a […]

In these tips and on the podcast, we talk a lot about the importance of deep vacuum, and deep vacuum using proper processes and tools is the best. It's really the ONLY way to ensure that a system is clean, dry, and tight. Just for review, that means: Nitrogen purge, flow and pressurize > Cores […]
