After a successful initial verification test of a leak repair, the follow-up test is due within how many days?
10 days of the initial test, or of reaching normal operation.

- 90 days
- 10 days ✔
Why: A follow-up verification test must be done within 10 days of the successful initial test. If the appliance was evacuated for the repair, the clock can start when it reaches normal operating conditions. Both tests must show the repair worked.
Huh, didn't know that: For repairs that need evacuation, the initial verification test must be done before refrigerant is added back.
