AC Compressor

[Espos4]

The compressor compresses the refrigerant into a high pressure liquid. .

Close. The compressor takes in low pressure gas and creates a high pressure gas. The high pressure gas travels to the condenser where it is cooled and “condenses” into a high pressure liquid.

Thank you Espos4!

The compressor doesn’t turn the refrigerant into a gas. The refrigerant is evaporated into a gas in the evaporator coil. The compressor compresses the refrigerant into a high pressure liquid. There’s many times where I could not find a leak with an electronic leak detector. Sometimes because the leak is too small and sometimes because the leak is in the water coil.

In regards to testing for leaks....... I am making the assumption that the tech who "got it working again" added refrigerant. If that is true, then he does have a leak. If he didn't .....something else is amiss.

Thank you, but still unaffordable for me

Your going to have a lot of “sweat equity” from now on unfortunately.
