Some jerk stole the copper coils out my home AC compressor and the film too. I've been doing research and it looks similar to an expensive proposition. Yes yes, I know all just about the new federal regs (1300 seer). And I know that it depends on the size of the house so what I call for is a worst case and best luggage scenario. I'm pretty certian it will have to be replaced... what benevolent of extra damage is imagined when they pulled this stunt? Are there any issues next to my insurance carrier that's going seize their panties in a intertwine?

Thanks

... and pox on the house of the friggin thief.
Will compression fittings work on ridgid copper pipe?
Answers:    Depends on how frequent tons you need. If it's the compressor lone, I would guess about $600.00 per ton. An average size requiring a 3 ton component. $1,800 but will vary depending where on earth you live. That estimate would be close in SE USA.
