    Re: Multiplex Piping

    After every blower you ca reduce your lines according to the capacities that can pass through the lines.
    You also can leave the liquid line in the original big size but it will cost you more refrigerant.
    Especially the oil return must sized properly.
    But you're evaporating at 0°C on R33, so this will not give you many problems . Slope suction towards the compressors anyhow.
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
