Compressor Burnout and Acid Management: HVAC 101 @MechanicalPros

A compressor failure can create acidity inside the refrigerant circuit. The acid in a circuit corrodes the insulation on a compressor's motor windings, leading to more premature failures if not addressed. Jon Fruetel and Bryan Reese explain what types of compressor oils create acid when exposed to excessive heat, how to identify acidic burnout and how to neutralize the acid in a circuit to prevent more failures.
