All of these videos are so informative and detailed its like being in the classroom. Anybody else here in hvac school watching these to teach themselves?
Me
What's is the size of the compressor
Soon to be.
Yes
Yep online school so being able to see something other than pictures is super helpful.
This guy Def knows what he's upta. Gunna show all this to the trainees
You are a great A/C tech . If there was young apprentice wanting to learn the A/C biz you would be the guy I would want as an instructor ... Kudos to you and your expertise
I'm currently looking for an hvac job, fresh out of community college hvac program, and I wish he was my instructor
I've been doing hvac for over 40 yrs you doing a great job on your videos.
This man knows what he’s talking about! Respect!
Great video! Im a 1st yr 2nd semester refrigeration student starting from scratch....this video is priceless....👍🏾 THANK YOU!
Glad it was helpful!
Same here man started a year ago but ended up getting a different job but going for it again so these are good for reviewing and learning what you lost
I watched videos from several other 'folks', and read many articles. I have to say, your video is by far the best available, light years ahead of everyone else. You explained not only the how, but the why, in simple terms. If you were living in my area, I'd hire you in a heartbeat!!! I'll subscribe and buy the book to support your site. Keep up the great work!
Your a great teacher and a hellofa expert at explaining how it is done at your level. Thank you and right on brother.
Sir your higher than a pioneer!! Superb job!!
I like how you cut off the yellow hose filled with liquid refrigerant early and allowed it to finish charging the system. What attention to detail! I love your clarity. You are a true friend! Thank you for all of your hard work!
Use virtual hug subliminal for your ac
Could you advise on how to check and add refrigerant to room air conditioners?
Seriously life changing for me you learn new things everyday 🙏🏼‼️

Great video ! I'm a retired HVACR tech and it's nice to view your vids to keep me in the loop of HVAC
Super job showing the correct use of sub cooling and super heat application. Thanks
For sure one of the best videos I have watched pertaining to filling with the why's and how's. This video has certainly left enough of an impression on me in regards to filling systems. I will admit that I have filled a little too fast in the past based on how low and slow you let the gas in.
Thank you for your professionalism and explanation. I look forward to viewing more of your videos in the future.
Best explanation I’ve seen on the internet with usage of tools,temps gauges and charts ty your a lifesaver! This is a field I’ve been interested in for a very long time. My son is also liking it!
Another excellent tech vid..really clear & easy to understand the procedures 👍🏻
Cheers
This was a great video! Helped me out alot...my instructors from Institute of technology HVAC sucked....didn't have the patience to instruct accurately cutting corners is what I see from them. Thank you Sir for the lesson.
Really worth the time spent,
Thanks teacher, for such as excellent videos.
Thanks for uploading this video. For the community.
Watching and learning from Papua New Guinea...
Thanks Craig. Very good and clean explanation of vac procedures. Thanks for sharing.
Very well done Craig in showing a step-by-step procedure! 😀👍
Great video, very instructive and clear. The locking service port caps are interesting. I'm a DIY hack who installed my own system 24 years ago and it's still running strong (knock wood). About 20 odd years ago I had a friend call me on a hot July 4th weekend. He had family over from out of town for the holiday, a house full of people and his A/C failed. He called me and told me he tried to get a repairman but none he could reach would come until after the holiday. So I went over there with my gauges, vacuum pump and a tank of R-22.
When I put the gauges on it there was no refrigerant in it at all. So we went along the line set to look for a leak, and there was no evidence of damage to it. So I put the vacuum pump on it and and tested to see if it would hold vacuum and it did. So I ran the vacuum on it for and hour and recharged it with refrigerant. It ran fine and I was the hero of the day.
I told him if the charge ran down again he'd need to call somebody to track down the leak, but it never did run down. I checked with him years later and he said the system was still working fine, no complaints. They sold and moved about 10 years after and never had any trouble with the A/C during the remaining time they lived there.
The house was in a semi rural area with the condensing unit at the rear of the house, and no chance of random traffic thru the fenced backyard. However there were several kids there between his own and their cousins. The moral of the story is the locking service port caps are a good idea if you have kids.
Very helpful!! Thank you for this educational video! 👍
Thanks for sharing an in depth view on this!
Very nice, now I understand the importance of temperature. Great video and thanks!
Very informative video. My mini split is not blowing cool air and I watched some videos and it mislead me. I thought, my system is over charged. After watching your video I understand the whole system how it works. Thank you 🙏
great explanation superheat and subcooling.
On the older r22 systems I usually went for 8° super heat where most systems preferred 12°. Never had a single complaint. The differential between return and supply Temps were preferably 14-21°. Anything less usually indicated a blocked evaporator coil.
I thought it was funny he "forgot" his gloves, probably didn't though. :P
Awesome video! Thanks for posting. BTW, your "Refrigerant Charging and Service Procedures for Air Conditioning" book is well worth the price and awesome also!
Very comprehensive and easy to understand even for a DYI homeowner such as myself. Thank you!
You can’t handle refrigerant without EPA
@@thedesire3225😂😂😂
Ive been wanting to join this industry for quite some time now. I recently graduated a HVAC/R Technology Diploma Program and due to covid I really didn't get the hands on training needed. So my company has me doing PMs to learn the equipment and finding issues. I hope this is a great way to learn. I've been told so many different things I don't know what to believe. So, With that, I Just ordered the quick reference cards and can't wait to use them. I am 34 and hoping I have a long career in this industry and get the hands on training that I need to be successful.
Kyle, depending on your state, it be might be possible for you to start your own HVAC business by getting your own insurance and getting a license from your state to be an HVAC Contractor. Different states have different requirements so if you really want to do HVAC and not fight the hassle of where you are at, then find a small town with no HVAC company nearby in a small business friendly state and put your knowledge to the test. It’s very freeing and there are plenty of distributors who will give you a dealership as well as online companies that will ship the products you need.
@@axeldread2979 the insurance is what will kill your profits, not saying it’s unnecessary but it is what prevents many from going into business for themselves
36 here and a 14 year plumber and have been doing HVAC for about 9 months now and honestly PM is where it’s at for guys our age, installs aren’t exactly what you want to be getting into unless you’re doing them for yourself, if your employer has a good set up for you to earn some commission then PM can definitely make you some good money if you work for a company that is doing commission for coil cleaning, system cleanings and selling new systems to customers you find with old systems that are shot, also some companies will pay you commission for good reviews on google and stuff like that, if you can find a place like that then you’ll make decent money and not kill yourself and honestly most installers just know how to lay duct work down and make everything look pretty if all they’ve ever done is install while with doing PM you’ll learn the ins and outs, good luck!
@@FalloutGenius1 the insurance isn’t that bad for a small HVAC company. It’s also a must if you want to be licensed in most states.
@@axeldread2979 I just started the trade myself I'm not really interested in license myself unless it was to do my own installs and make tons of money. Honestly I hate installing though lol I like servicing.
Thank you for teaching. Need videos like these!!
Great video man. Your the man. Love the way you describe every necessary step🗣👌✌👍

Thanks Craig! this is a Cool Video!
Excellent video buddy 👍👍
Learn something new every day
great information
Really enjoyed it. Funny, plan on re educating myself and head back to school. I am retired, but what the heck? Called a tech and I knew more about charging the system than he did. But it cost me $350 due to the fact I am not EPA certified could not purchase the refrigerant. Well, thank you. Liked your teaching method.
Like to use these videos for my employees,again great job.
Another Great Video !, great work
Professional,very impressive
Great video! Thanks Craig!
Glad you liked it!
Good job,thankyou well explained
Excellent vid...Bermuda
I was offered a job to learn hvac and the guy training me just plugs in low pressure gauge and fills it super fast then we're out lol. Usually 2 minutes or less we're out of there. Glad to know the correct way now. I'll remember so I don't look like a moron if I ever start at another company
I love the course
Very nice job
Awesome video !!! Thanks
Very well and I will follow

Excellent work clear video thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the info!
very well explained
Tampa Florida check in thanks for the content
Here in Utah if the inside heat load isn’t high enough, we will restrict airflow with bags on the outdoor condenser to manually create it. Great video 🤘
Nice info , clear and concise.
Ive subscribed.
Awesome, thank you!
very well done Thanks
Great training. I wish tech's made better pay, I might become one. Opening my own service company might be worthwhile. Can't have enough HVAC tech's during the summer in Arizona.
Great teacher !!!
