Re: Changing Multiple Orifice/Capillary into TXV - LG Package Unit
Who is recommending changing what the manufacturer has spent $1000's designing?
Do those capillaries all connect to a coil?Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK

So, new TXV, new distributor and new capillaries to the coil. Some bodies got their work cut out getting that conversion done.

Just seems a pointless exercise to me.
The manufacturers would have used TXVs if it was a better option.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK
