Which risk increases when operating an air-source heat pump evaporator at low frost?

💡 Explanation

Low frost conditions restrict airflow, causing poor evaporator performance; as a result, liquid refrigerant floods back to the compressor, enabling oil dilution because the latent heat transfer is impaired therefore reducing lubrication rather than improving evaporator efficiency.
