Hose/Line HVAC: Description and Operation
Suction Line
DESCRIPTION
The A/C suction line is the refrigerant line that carries refrigerant from the A/C accumulator to the A/C compressor.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals and gaskets is required anytime a refrigerant line is opened. Failure to replace the
rubber O-ring seals and metal gaskets could result in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C suction line has no serviceable parts except for the O-ring seals and gaskets. The O-ring seals used on the connections are made from a special
type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The O-ring seals and gaskets must be replaced whenever the A/C suction line is removed.
The A/C suction line cannot be repaired and must be replaced if found to be leaking or damaged.
