🔍 Key Concepts

• Effect of low refrigerant charge on system pressures (suction and discharge) • How refrigerant quantity affects compressor run time and cycling • Relationship between heat load, refrigerant flow, and ability to satisfy box thermostat

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to both suction and discharge pressures if there is not enough refrigerant circulating in the system. • Consider whether a system that is starved of refrigerant will more easily reach the set temperature (causing frequent cycling) or struggle to ever reach it. • Ask yourself: with low refrigerant, would the compressor tend to shut off more often, or stay on longer trying to cool the space?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check which options would be associated with overcharge or excessive load rather than low charge. • Verify which pressure (suction vs discharge) is expected to be low, not high, when refrigerant is insufficient. • Confirm which choice best matches a system that cannot pull down the box temperature and therefore doesn’t satisfy the thermostat.
