Help,
My business A/C unit had a leak in the outside coil. We soldered it but now we get no cooling. Compressor is running (feels cool not hot). The inlet side is warm and the outlet side is cool. Does anyone know if the compressor went or do we have a blockage? How can we be sure! The coil has a 3-5 week leadtime and I'll be out of business by then.
Please help FAST!!!

JohnR

You should braze a leak in the condenser coil and not solder it. check the coil and see if the same leak may be still leaking. If true, that cost you a complete charge of refrigerant. Do it once, do it right.

What are your suction and head pressures? what is the make and model of the machine? Did you fix a leak in the condenser coil or the evaperator coil? Is this a split system or a self contained RTU?
