  📌 Notes Before Buying / Replacing

• This model is usually specified for R-22. Modern systems often use R-410A or R-32. Do not substitute without ensuring refrigerant and oil compatibility.

• Size (e.g., “12″” in some product descriptions) often refers to physical mounting/footprint or nominal capacity class, not a literal dimension.

• Check the compressor nameplate (on your existing unit) for exact voltage, capacitor size, and displacement before ordering.
