LEAK DETECTION FOR DEACTIVATED CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM

An embodiment of detecting a refrigerant leak in a climate control system includes (a) determining that the climate control system is in a deactivated and equalized state. In addition, the method includes (b) comparing an average pressure of a refrigerant of the climate control system to a saturated vapor pressure of the refrigerant at an average temperature within the climate control system, in response to (a). Further, the method includes (c) detecting a refrigerant leak based at least in part on (b).
