Oh yeah, I heard about that.

And to think we discarded these things as not having enough scrap value a
few years ago.

He really means he can't sell new coils to someone if they are more than
5-7 years old. He is only looking at his income not your cool.

hi sally,
i recently went on a call to give a second opinion on an evap coil
replacement. the tenant was getting water on the floor and the last service
company told them the drain pan was rusted through and it would be $1200 to
replace it. it ended up that the PLASTIC drain pan wasnt rusted at
all.......the drain line was plugged and a $10 shot of nitrogen (plus the
cost of the service call - $70) fixed it right up. know your service
company.
