There are many oil additives that claim to increase compressor or system efficiency, others that neutralize acid or find leaks. What oil additives does Copeland approve?

The long-term effect of chemical additives on refrigerants and materials used in the compressor are not known without time-consuming, rigorous laboratory tests. The use of most of these additives is strongly discouraged by Copeland and may result in voiding the compressor warranty. Application Engineering Bulletin 17-1282 states Copeland’s position on additives. An exception is the fluorescent leak detection dye, AR-GLO ® , made by Spectronics Corporation.
