      @markmcelmeel7850 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As somebody that has been in the field for 15 years, here is my two cents on the matter. Refrigerant 410A uses POE oil and will absolutely cause terrible acid buildup if not installed and evacuated properly. A lot of companies do not properly train their technicians, and as a result, we have a lot of coils in the wild that have acid buildup and shortly thereafter, refrigerant leaks. I can’t understate how critical it has to evacuate properly. Also, Goodman sucks in general
