ACR 101; Typical Residential Recovery, Evacuation, Charging

This is a typical residential AC system where we will discuss installation of refrigerant gauges, guage calibration, a refrigerant recovery system, and a vacuum pump for evacuation.

I am a student in air conditioning and refrigeration. This is an excellent explanation and hands on. Easy to follow and understand.

I appreciate your video on the recovery process, I am an hvacr instructor and I like to show the students videos like this. The problem is everyone on TH-cam is using the newest recovery machines and they don't use a manifold to recover through just fancy hose connectors. How you are doing it and the machine is the same one I've used for years. I believe in keeping it simple 👍Thanks

[@HVACHVACHVAC]

keeping it simple would be Removing Valve cores with a valve core tool, using 3/8 hoses and a Y fitting without a manifold and recovering to the vapor side of the tank flipped upside down . you'll be done in no time. using a manifold and other restrictive things is not doing students any favors.

Came on here to say thank you this helped me out a lot god bless you and your family.

[@asokasl]

Thank you for keeping it simple.
Not to confuse with too many details.
But it would help if a small filter dryer was added to the recovery hose just before the recovery machine inlet.
But great job.

You might consider setting up a camera in the lab and doing a full recovery/evac/recharge on some equipment there. The controlled environment would considerably decrease video production costs. :-)

Thank you

It's Daniel mojica remember me... took your class at mirmar College...

[@lex6794]

Thanks Man! I got to learn this.

[@emadalshammari1790]

you did not pull schrader valves before evacuation process

[@cesarmartin111]

I think is not necessary, it just if you want to make the recovery faster

[@philipajarapoo7675]

Not necessary. All that would do is help to speed up the process. Totally optional.

[@davidju3884]

no filter dryer for the machine?

[@Alex-jo2oi]

Especially if you intend on putting that same refrigerant back into the system after servicing ….

[@anthonymorales1178]

How would you charge using the recovery tank?

[@jaaayyymannn]

What valves do we close in order when we finish recovering?

[@vivemarocamourlove9666]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Your really not supposed to pull a vacuum thru gauges either you should use just use the vacuum and two hoses.

[@rickmiles2381]

Nope, never heard of such a thing. You will not damage the gauges.

[@dallascowboys2757]

Awesome video 📹

[@AaronPowellvox]

I wondered if you’d address how close that unit is to the wall. Shameful.

[@rickmiles2381]

Unit is too close to the wall for proper air flow. Need at least 12 inches. Good video though.

[@ezquad959]

3ft in Massachusetts

[@13panda13]

Your eyes bad?? its obvious this pulls through side and top, so the back does not have to be unrestricted/spaced from wall.

[@toksdesbordes2299]

U need a mic bro

You need a life bro

[@myname1100]

Bad sound, max volume barely hear anything

[@calisawce7273]

Couldn’t hear a damn word of this.

Clean your ears then
