When an HVAC system sits idle in low ambient temperatures, refrigerant naturally migrates to the coldest part of the system—the compressor oil. Upon startup, this causes oil foaming, poor lubrication, and severe mechanical stress. The Copeland 918-0088-00 keeps the oil warm, keeping the refrigerant out and ensuring a safe, smooth start every single time.
