INTERPRETING PRESSURE READINGS

Low-Pressure High-Pressure Action


Gauge Gauge Required

IN RANGE IN RANGE A/C is working properly.

LOW LOW Add Refrigerant.

LOW HIGH Need service, possible blockage of the


expansion valve or orifice tube.

HIGH LOW Needs service, possibly faulty compressor.

HIGH HIGH System is overcharged. Slowly remove


refrigerant. Venting is illegal in USA.

It is illegal to vent 134a refrigerant into the atmoshpere.
