I hope you can see the photo. There is a orange wrap around the bottom of the compressor. It appears to be some type of insulation, the ends have velcro. The wrap is loose . I have never seen this before. What is it?
Thanks! |

The better units come with insulation wrap around the compressor, that one just needs some tyraps or straps of some sort to secure it.
