Domestic Ice Maker
I'm in the commercial air conditioning end of this business. I have a contract at a school and they have a table top ice maker. The compressor was tripping the OL and they sent the school a new compressor and they want me to install it. I can't say "No" if you know what I mean. The total unit only has 2.6 oz. charge of R-134A. Once I install the new compressor and evacuate the system how should I proceed. It's been a while since I've done any refrigeration or ice makers. Domestic refrigeration is not one of my strong points. I have the tools and the hands but I need a little technical help if that's possible.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sneak out the back and go to home depot, buy a brand new one just like it for $179 and tell them it's fixed.

To tell you the truth that's the answer I was looking for. My helper said the same thing to me yesterday. It will cost them a lot less $$$$$ to replace the whole thing. NYC union labor rates are quite high these days. Thanks.
