I don’t get why people always wait to put a bend in the braze rod til they already have the torches lit. Like bro it’s not that hard to bend 😂 quality work though brother, I always try to keep your processes in mind when I work.
cant believe i found this only a few days ago an i have already watched everything T.T, when i have the money to pay for the trade school i know what my next job will be
Nice job man. Microchannel coils...good heat transfer but if you look at em wrong they leak 😄
If your recovery tank is used and has oil in the bottom of it, that will affect the vacuum. Especially if it's contaminated.
Good work, good camera locations, clean work,step by step and not rushing, truly Quality work!
Thank you for the best quality video. Everything is pretty clear for understanding
Nice video including mistakes we all make it happens great job as always
Awesome video. Next leak check video, can you go through every minor detail as well?
Nice content as always, good you showed errors thet we all make, real life experience.., thank you...
GREAT JOB! THANKS FOR EXPLAINING WHY YOU DO THINGS THE WAY YOU DO 😎
I love watching your videos. you’re definitely a knowledgeable technician. Why not use like a welding blanket instead of that putty?
Great video and perfect process.
You’re the man thanks for the content I need the study
Great job man, I like your equipment
thank you for sharing your knowledge, i really appreciate it
Nice neat job Zac, well done 👍 Au
Very informative thank you very much.
Thank you brother!
Looks great
Great job 😊😊
Good repair👍
Good work 😊
That vacuum pump manual actually says close ballast at 3k microns. But do you bro especially if it works. Fellow journeyman in central ky
Once again another nice job. Done right.
Let’s do some work
Nice work!!! Question......what is that pouch that you have on your side and who makes it????
So cool. I work on the mechanical part of refrigerated railcars for the railroad. I only do filters, starter, batteries water pumps and all that. I'm studying to get my 608 universal. All this is so confusing, but I'm wanting to get into residential HVAC for a side job and maybe opening up my own business one day like you. Do you have any advice for me?
Nice job
Surprised you braced it instead of using your famous RLS system - I wonder why is that (I’m not a hvac tech, but I’ve following your channel, I’m likely to go to hvac school soon) (yes, your channel is definitely telling me to go for it 😎). Thanks. Cheers.
Highly recommend you do, I’m in HVAC-R school currently and the best thing about it is the experienced teachers who want their trade placed in good hands , they are definitely making my experience there 100Xs better
Perfect 👍
Good video
since your not using the recovered gas and its below 2 lbs what will you do with it? keep using tank recovering or reclaim it?
Nice man
HEY! Hello and thumbs UP!!
Cool reinstall zack
What happened with the wireless vacuum gauges?
I heard someone say turn your recovery tank upside down and pull in thru the vapor line specifically. Apparently it’s a really fast recovery method. Have you tried?
How could you not be a great tech if you don’t make mistakes
Because he isn’t a tech lol he’s a brand promoter
I was wondering what the little line had to do with the big line 🤔 maybe relieve pressure?
Why the video edit at 5:35 wanted to see it come apart. 😞 What kind of Magic is this? LOL! 6:41 Awesome Slid right out. Love watching your videos. Thumbs Up.
Nice work! Any chance you do service calls in California? Lol
Is there something wrong with letting the copper cool down naturally vs using a wet rag? What's the difference?
im pretty new to the trade and havent been told what you do if you recover refrigerant and dont put it back to the system. is that when you bring it to a reclaiming site and they make it new again??
Reclaim or burn it
Hey awesome video, I see that you have not put back the refrigerant that you had recovered because its a blend, have you ever had a problem with this in the past? I tend to think that as it is mixed you should not lose one part more than the other..
If you’re recovering a small amount of refrigerant , with that kind of repair, might as well recharge with fresh refrigerant. Technically, he could’ve put the refrigerant back in as long as it was put in as a liquid.
Im 82 career of refrigeration, i never purged nitrogen and ive never had a problem at on service calls. I used to purge on new installs
Less of an issue with older R22 or simple orifice or TXV systems. Modern systems, especially with an electronic expansion valve, are risky if you don't purge. There are some good vids on YT that show the crusty junk that can get on the inside of the lines without purging. A chunk of that ending up in the EEV would break it.
@@bnasty267 ive done plenty of expansion valves aswell im talking literally over 50 and yea never had one go out on me that ive replaced but i hear ya new practices for the you g bucks
You have very fortunate and you probably braze fast too. If you don’t purge though at some point your gonna oxidize and plug up your expansion valve
What’s a job like this take you to film and finish
@Quality HVACR i'm investing in some digital gauges. was wondering if you could either do a video, or straight up recomment a brand. after some homework, i settled on yellow jacket, testo and field piece. any feedback is greatly appreciated!!!
i’m a huge fan of my field piece gauges. i got the SMAN 480 but i would recommend getting the 380 as i never use my vacuum port on my gauges.
I personally use the testo 550s. I like that it has a smaller footprint than the rest. It’s very accurate and I haven’t had any problems from it
I personally use Testo 557s. Great set of digital gauges.
i'm starting to think theyre all great. its all about which colour do you want 🤣field piece will match my dewalt black and yellow theme 😎😎
SMANs are great and what I use (Testo and Yellow Jacket too) but... had issues with almost every single set. Manifold bleed thru, funky intermittent micron gauge (have to clean periodically but still acting up), wireless connection issues, one had weird intermittent pressure readings until you "tap" it. 1000 bucks with hoses and wireless temp probes, it had better perform. I always keep spare hoses, gauges (even analog), various low loss fittings, etc on the truck. Redundancy is the word. Not cool to be stuck with faulty equipment on a job and have to pull off. Good way to piss the boss off!
A good idea is to add 50ml of sulphuric acid to the compressor before regassing to reduce corrosion
On the nitrogen leak check why no soap bubbles?
if Pressure does not change in 15 minutes / Systems tight !!! Why use bubbles right off ?
I dont want you working on my refrigeration. Lol. Guages arent that accurate. There isnt a guage out there that can detect a 1/4oz per year leak pressure drop in 15 minutes. bubbles dont lie. @OcRefrigeration
Hydrate yourself when doing hotworks under any environment for safety
Hi, where you from?
Two days in a row, I have found a leak. One with nitrogen and one due to all the oil pooling by the bulb.
Thanks for showing the mistakes.
Microchannel evap and condenser coils 🗑️
Had a Ruud 22 years never did anything to it never had a gauge on it. got a new Ruud 3 years ago At 2 years fan motor went out and like most other people at 3 years I have a leaking coil. Ruud today is total junk.
Old units are built different, they’re built to last longer, nowadays equipment are build to make more money by selling parts and more disposable equipment
No cool water on recovery tank 😂 owner activities lol
