I have a 2 ton heat pump with a 21/2 ton indoor coil, because of a water
leak and duct work seperating and think the AC didn't work I had lots of
work done on the AC before I found out the ducts needed repair. ow
everything in the unit is the same as the original except tthe orifice, the
coil has a .093" instead of .095". the specs say the 10 seer should have the
.093 and the 12 seer should have the .095. The serviceman said this makes no
difference and it'll cost over $400.00 to fix it, Anyone think this is the
problem? Thanks Jim

Yeah... but only the size of the pistons.... 2 1/2 ton, I would expect to
see a .065 piston for a 10 seer and .095 for 12 SEER with an expansion
valve.

No, I don't think that's the problem. If your heat pump isn't
working, there is something wrong. But a 2% size diff of orifice isn't
enough to make it "not work".

The heat part works great it doesn't cool 100% and everything else is the
same.
