Re: TXV's To Adjust or Not to Adjust - That is ....
If the fans are not runing and the valve closes, what difference does it make which orfice size is installed? Closed is closed. If the coil is flooding the valve should respond unless the piping arrangment and bulb location permit flow through the bottom of the suction pipe without cooling the bulb.
There will be little or no superheat to open the valve.

The only down side in setting the TXV's to control the total superheat is that now the compressor bodies may sweat or have frost on them depnding on the application. Then someone thinks the compressor is flooding back and resets the TXV's so the compressors run HOT AGAIN!If all else fails, ask for help.
