Which risk increases when refrigerant leaks cause decreased evaporator pressure?

💡 Explanation

Oil foaming can occur because reduced evaporator pressure lowers the refrigerant's boiling point, contaminating lubricant with boiled off volatile refrigerant fractions; therefore the oil boils off, rather than maintaining normal pressure and lubricant properties under higher normal evaporator pressures.
