    What caused this Gary? Looks like a stretch of multiple pinholes.

    Just cheap imported copper, must have been a bad batch at the foundry I suppose. It’s a two year old line on one of our ductless installs. We took one beating on this one!

    I’m afraid to look at the time sheets. Here’s a hint though, my guys mistakenly thought the wall Evap was leaking, so we replaced that. And it went on and on. Never too many dull moments in the heating and cooling world.

    I have another install that’s not venting well, really odd chimney issues. It’s got a liner, just weird draft issues. I’ve been talking with the Captain on this one. Home owner is bugging
