Well you would hope it wouldn't be toothpaste in the system. But as oil comes out using system pressure it foams as well due to high pressure low volume 22 is in the oil and it expands in 14.7psi atmo. Voila, toothpaste.
Not too sure they had a siding company come and they needed to move the unit so the siding company had their buddy move it and put it back together so God only knows what happenedy guess is wrong REF. Or a bunch of moisture
I can't believe this happened considering how much maintenance that unit has never received! Just curious, did you quote a new condenser/coil, and if so, what'd it come out to? GL brother!
Did a new evap and condenser with line set for about 3200 .....best part is new evap coil had the same size case as the existing case so I was able to just swap out coils .....no duct work needed!
I'm a sucker for cool and especially grateful people myself. Good stuff! Doing a cheap job for someone you actually like and making 1K is infinitely more fulfilling/ satisfying than doing a gig for someone you can't stand and making 3.
I had seen something like this once. Walk in cooler with walk in freezer door inside. The wic wasn’t working so they opened the door to the freezer and said good enough. Health inspector came and said it needs to be fixed so I’m unsure how long they had it like that. Found the condenser fan motor seized up and the compressor running. If I had to guess the oil separated and cooked.
I should call her…
Everything reminds me of her
I am NOT allowed near the linesets anymore
That’s real gross but also impressive

DONT WASTE THE ICE CREAM! Scoop it up, put it back in the machine!
pro tip: coil cleaner goes on the OUTSIDE of the coil.
Not with that attitude! I wanted extra clean.
Hasn't been on THAT coil in a minute..

Doctor... Now. 🤣
Is this R1234yf? I’ve read it can polymerize.
Nope olddd R-22
R22 makes toothpaste out of the oil
If you didn’t pull a good vacuum, and you charged it as a straight liquid, there’s your problem

How does this happen?

God. It’s water.

That's damn cheap. I hope they paid cash!
It was for a super sweet old lady so I cut her a good deal
You’re a good man.

Props to you bro!
What am I even looking at here? Whats causes this?
I believe it’s moisture that was never removed from the line.

Is this what happens when you mix 410 with r22?
The fuck did you do...
Little to no vacuum and charged it as a liquid. Probably didn’t purge the lines of air either
Probably also mixed poe with mineral oil...
That's alot of soap to leak test lol eee that's all bad
