Hose/Line HVAC: Description and Operation
Suction Line
DESCRIPTION
The A/C suction line (1) is the refrigerant line that carries refrigerant from the accumulator tubes (2) (which are connected to the A/C evaporator (3)) to
the A/C compressor. The A/C suction line is only serviced as an assembly.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals is required anytime a refrigerant line is opened. Failure to replace the rubber O-ring
seals could result in a refrigerant system leak.
The A/C suction line has no serviceable parts except for the O-ring seals. 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 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.
