← TechnologyWhich dangerous outcome occurs when an HVAC system refrigerant filter becomes blocked?
A)Compressor oil starvation and seizure✓
B)Evaporator coil thermal cracking
C)Condenser fan motor overheating risk
D)Refrigerant chemical decomposition occurs
💡 Explanation
Compressor oil starvation occurs because the blocked filter prevents oil circulation, therefore compressor bearings overheat and seize, rather than evaporator cracking which results from thermal stress or refrigerant decomposition from external factors.
