After looking at the compressor on my 'frig, I notice that there are several ( short )copper lines that are coiled around.
I know nothing of refrigerators.
It would be nice if I could just cut the lines to the compressor and install some longer copper lines. This way I could keep the compressor upright, and also it would not heat up the 'frig with the heat it produces ( I could set it several inches away from the 'frig vs. below it )
However, my guess is that if I go cut the lines, all of my refrigerant will come shooting out.
Is there a way to keep that from happening ?
