  1. Wipers need some friction on the glass so they fold from one direction to the other. When applying products like this to the glass, it removes some of the friction and the blades can chatter. Wiper blades require a certain downward force per inch of blade. Sometimes reducing the wiper length by one inch will give just enough more downward force to cure the problem. Sometimes a new blade is also softer as the rubber becomes harder and stiff on older blades .

  2. Are you stating that Adams is loosing sales because of this? I for one like seeing this type of warnings on products, it goes to show you that it will get the job that you want done, done.... Also I would think it is also a protection factor protecting Adams from a liability standard. And like it say's... Common Sense which is something that is being lost today.

    It's a joke...... Simply playing on the idea that common sense seems to be lacking these days.

  3. If it were mine I would replace the coil and condenser, at the least with R-410A.  You may want to evaluate the condition of your air handler (furnace) as well.  R-22 was replaced with R-410A in 2010.  I know the equipment is expensive.  I replaced all of mine in 2007 and it cost me a little over 11K.  I have a 4 ton Lennox unit.  And a 110K btu furnace if I remember correctly.  I'm sure prices have gone up since then too.

     

    I found the link below that may answer some of your questions.  Hope that helps.

    Also wanted to mention when I switched mine over from R-22 to R-410A they had some way to clean the line set so that it didn't need replacing too.  It was relatively new, and still works perfectly.  HVAC is a sore subject with me.  

    Thanks Chris, I lucked out. Turned out to be one of the auxiliary heat strips staying on. 

  4. My compressor is failing in my Goodman 1.5 ton Heat pump. Still blows warm, but barely cools when switching to A/C. I want to replace the outside unit,but my unit is a R22 unit. All the new ones seem to be R410 charged. The R22 units are dry charged. Should I just replace the whole system? Just the outside unit with a R22 unit, or Will a 410 unit work? Opinions welcome.
