Corrosion of condenser circuits in refrigeration systems significantly impacts appliance reliability and longevity. This study investigates an unreported cause linked to changing adhesive materials during copper pipe assembly. Transitioning from a polyethylene‐based adhesive to one containing ethylene vinyl acetate caused unexpected perforation of copper coils within months. We hypothesized that even trace amounts of acetic acid, a byproduct of the latter adhesive, trigger a peculiar localized morphology known as “ant‐nest corrosion.” We propose using ethylene vinyl acetate‐free adhesives to prevent this issue in refrigeration systems.
