The other day we were moving some linesets. One of them just wouldn't pull down into the recovery machine. The other 2 were recovered in a few minutes.
I told the boys to just go ahead and cut the lines.
Water....Maybe a quart of water we drained from this 60' suction line. Now, I've seen water in units served by a cooling tower...But in a residential system?
New one on me.
I called the local EPA rep (a friend of mine) and told him the story and that we were gonna blow the charge and pull a deep vacuum. He was cool with that. Ran a vacuum pump all night long and re-charged the system after moving the lineset.
What I'd like to know is, how the f*ck did the water get in there in the first place?
