Best Answer

Undercharge can cause HIGH superheat. Overcharge can cause LOW superheat.

You need some superheat when charged correctly. How much is needed is depending on outdoor air temperature and indoor wet-bulb temperature.

Superheat depends on the type of metering device you are using in the equipment as well as the current state of the load.

With a txv, the superheat should be constant, normally between 10-15 degrees. It is best to check the superheat at the outlet of the evaporator. this will ensure that the compressor does not slug with liquid refrigerant.
