was that etiology verified? it doesn't seem logical that the
tubing was
designed to be corrosion free at 0 F, but not at 35 F

for a given refrigerant, at a given vapor pressure inside the
evaporator,
boiling always occurs at the same temperature. temperature in the
*compartment* depends upon how much refrigerant is allowed to
boil, as
controlled by a thermostat... the tubing doesn't know what the
temp is in
the box.
