    Best part of this SC is that the water is continuous flow and therefore always cool from the spigot. The CPS SC will melt a bucket of ice quickly in the summer heat and when recovering a 125+lb VRF system you end up shagging buckets of ice and lug it up to a roof.

    I’m not sure if your video mentioned this but you need the check the oil level in the off cycle of each circuit. According to Trane if the analysis comes back ok and your pressure differential across your filter is ok then they suggest you leave the oil alone. I guess you’ll have to see what the lab says about your darker sample. Great video! 👍
