1) Reclaim existing refrigerant (4.5lbs)
2) Refrigerant orifice disconnection/removal/reinstall
3) Nitrogen gas flush with flushing agents
4) Liquid line drier/filter installation
5) Nitrogen pressure check
6) System evacuation
7) Add 4.8 lbs of R-22 freon
8) System test, check and condenser coil wash

First of all I question why the refrigerant was recovered & disposed of instead of pumping it back to the condenser & why wasn't the old refrigerant put back it?

The tech said the refrigerant orifice was plugged and refrigerant could not be pumped back. The old refrigerant had debris in it so add new.

I'd have to see it to believe it.

Ok, I asked what the average cost was to perform the steps mentioned above. Could you just answer the question and stop questioning what the tech had decided to do. Unless you are not able to give a ball park price.

[Grady White]

Sorry, no can do. Prices vary too much area to area, company to company.

I agree with Grady. It is near impossible to give a quote online for such work. To many variables.

Now, Oldjojo, even if we could have given you a ballpark, nobody here would after your post #5. It came across as rude and in a hurry, and we are here as volunteers (not getting paid) and don't need to put up with any of that. Good day. Pay your bill and be done with it.

[Oldjojo]

The bill has been paid. Just asked a question and didn't want to get into answering questions for what the tech had already done. Call yourself a volunteer, I say another blowhard with nothing better to do. Good day.

You got me. Good job.
