Significant Technical Input
O.K., I can see that. Probably the reason it doesn't happen on cars is that the evap is so small in comparison to the coils in houses, etc. Also, cars use R-12 or R-134 whereas HVAC is normally R-22 or other. Different properties involved. Similar to discussion regarding diesel knock/detonation vs. specific gravity of fuels.
