Refrigeration Oil Best Practices

  • Use the oil type and viscosity grade your compressor manufacturer specifies
  • Keep POE containers sealed; POE absorbs moisture from the air
  • Never mix oil types without confirming compatibility
  • Trend oil condition with routine oil analysis
  • Flush thoroughly when converting refrigerants
