Hi,This is risky business, not responsible for damages on your end. We *keep going until *you are happy. I come and go. be patient

Phil :

Trace amounts of refrigerant would have been released, less than a fraction of an ounce in most cases, it is common with service work.. no harm is done to your system.

Phil :

with the hose he was cleaning out your air cooled condenser...thats part of a competent service call.

Phil :

Let me know if you need further elaboration, we can go from there. Phil
