Arctic Fox HVAC Inspection VS Inspector HVAC Inspections
 Items with
our inspectors check during the home
inspection.
 Arctic Fox checks every line item.
 Arctic Fox can give bids for repairs. Our inspectors can NOT
give bids.

Suction pressure: term used to describe
the pressure of a refrigerant gas at the intake
point of a refrigerator or air conditioner
compressor.
Discharge pressure: the pressure of a
liquid as it leaves a pump.
Higher dischargepressures equal greater
force behind the release while
lower pressure means less.
Superheat: refers to the number of
degrees a vapor is above its saturation
temperature (boiling point) at a particular
pressure.
Subcooling: the condition where the liquid
refrigerant is colder than the minimum
temperature (saturation temperature)
required to keep it from boiling and, hence,
change from the liquid to a gas phase.
