⚠ Important: Do not flush through compressors, TXVs, metering devices, filter-driers, capillary tubes, or other sensitive components. Isolate the line set before flushing. Always follow Vapco Purge application instructions, chase with dry nitrogen, and pull a vacuum to 500 microns or lower before charging with refrigerant.

Why burnout needs more: Compressor burnouts leave baked-on carbon, acid residue, and heavy sludge throughout the line set. Even with Purge's advanced chemistry, heavily contaminated systems often require additional solvent passes to flush clean. This calculator adds approximately 20% extra product for burnout conditions.
