answer475°K
The best method of leak checking is when the refrigeration system is - answerstanding
with dry nitrogen pressure of 150 psig in the system
Technician "A" says that if the air filter on an air-conditioning system is totally blocked
with dirt, the amperage draw of the evaporator fan motor will go down. Technician "B"
