    A lot of the G.E. and Carlyle compressors are aluminum windings. But you can't go by letters in the model number as most Bristol and Techumseh have copper windings and an A in the model number. As a rule, the older the compressor, the more likely that it will be aluminum windings. As a compressor buyer, you start building a database of aluminum wound compressors pretty quick of go broke.
