During a residential AC recharge, which outcome occurs when air contaminates the refrigerant?

💡 Explanation

Compressor overheating impairs efficiency because non-condensables raise the condensing pressure, resulting from the **pressure differential**. Therefore, the compressor works harder rather than distributing load properly because excess heat causes breakdown with inefficient system operation.
