    Flush out the R22 and refill it with R438a (AKA MO99) R410a systems have their drawbacks, higher operating pressures and added internal complexity Test your compressor status with a Megohmeter, if its not reading well than you can replace the compressor if you're good at brazing

    Brother, you can see exactly where it's leaking from. Armstrong furnace, very common leak point on the left side of the collector box, there's is an additional drain point for horizontal applications, the plug is often loose from factory. Just needed a little Teflon on the threads and it would have been fine.

    I hate that im on HVAC side of youtube now but since i am. Everyone should go see what type of refrigerant they have and order a cheap set of gauges. Then see what size capacitors your indoor fan and outdoor unit has and order one of each. So if it goes out you can swap it instead of waiting. I also recommend seeing what rating your contactor is and having one at your house. I mean just getting the capacitors and contactor will prolly keep your A/C running for years to come "But i dont wanta pay $30 for spare parts." Well go ahead and call a service tech and let them install one and see how much you pay😂 even if your not comfortable around stuff like this, just search it and 90% of the stuff you can find a video to walk you through. Then you can always call techs in if its too hard of a job. I just replaced our contactor few days ago. I can only imagine how much a service tech would have charged me. **before touching contactors look up a video and they will show how to discharge it so you dont get shocked "even with the power off"

    Think from the customers' pov. . So many contractors don't do that. I experienced that with a recent home reno. The contractor put in a new sink and cabinet with a space between wall and counter that was not there previously. Was not thinking about how items would fall in between. Good workmanship sees the future needs of the client and service people who will follow you. Nice work!

      Hello. Thanks for your comment. To be honest the manufacturers no longer make furnaces or Air conditioners that last that long. Rheem makes a great air conditioner. Have a professional hvac technician provide you with a quote based on the size of your furnace and ask them to provide you with warranty information before you install the unit
