[QUOTE="Mmac52280, post: 2534913, member: 120230"] Sort of agree, but air lines I've run we used copper tubing, not pipe. Softer tubing can be cut and soldered, but preferred hand bending most turns to improve flow. We are very limited in HVAC using elbows. Almost all Freon is run in tubing, generally type L. Word of caution, Freon tubing is sized outside, not inside size. Freon elbows are called long sweep, and I've never seen one outside of a plumbing/HVAC wholesaler. If you have a tight budget, skip this. Don't be fooled that the "softer" tubing isn't very strong either. [/QUOTE]
