I'm sure I've said it before, but thanks for all the great free information you and all the other great teachers provide. Such a wealth of knowledge. I'm 58 and I absolutely hated high school. Until I got into the trades. Then surprisingly I became an "A" student. I seriously love the trades and think its a great alternative to a four year college. My grand daughter is 15 and wants to become a welder. She makes me proud. Once again, thanks. Phil

The charging hose has air when you hooked it up to the tee. The small space after the shutoff valve is dead air space. Needs a better setup maybe?

@NickNameNemo 28 күн бұрын
If system has leakage (r410a) and still remains some amount of refrigerant, let’s say 70-80% of total, should I recover all refrigerant from system and charge it with new or just add needed amount?

@x-got2bkidiny-justlikeabov787 Күн бұрын
Awesome explanation but … the label on the unit says indoor TXV with 10 deg F sub cooling. You say it has a fixed orifice so you’re using the superheat method - am I a missing something here?
@acservicetechchannel Күн бұрын
Yes so the outdoor unit will always tell you the subcooling if a txv is used. However, as you can see through that plexiglass at the indoor unit, there is a piston there and not a txv. Single stage outdoor units can be installed with any combination of indoor units and metering device, thanks! To learn more check out our books at acservicetech.com !

need tips and tricks to determine if a system has a piston or txv. Sometimes on UNCASED coils it is impossible to remove the front of the field made cover to get a look.
@sir.cannabis1173 Ай бұрын
I'm thinking one could tell by how fast the numbers move. Craig mentioned it might take 15 minutes for pressures to equalize with a fixed.
@mackenziegray2090 Ай бұрын
If you see a threaded union outside the case, chances are you got a piston.
@turnedearthdesign8678 Ай бұрын
Also check the chart on the condenser. It usually (but not always) tells you what the pressure of one of the lines should be which should match up to the metering device used

@emidiolopez1409 Ай бұрын
So you remove the schrader valve to do SH or SC? Or what kind of removal tool do you use that has a press tool built in? Because the Appion that I use don’t have the press tool so I can’t take any risk of losing 5+ pounds of refrigerant by removing the schraders lol
@HVAC_Tips_Tricks_Calcs Ай бұрын
@@emidiolopez1409if your loosing 5 lbs with a core removal tool you’re using it wrong. How much refrigerant are you going to lose I’d the schrader doesn’t seal?
@emidiolopez1409 Ай бұрын
@@HVAC_Tips_Tricks_Calcs Ive never said I’m losing 5 pounds by using the schrader removal tool. I said that’s just stupid if you have to remove the schrader valves every time you have to check the pressures on an AC, NO way I’m taking risks in losing factory refrigerant if something doesn’t goes bad with the removal tool.

I can see myself pulling the pressure probes off the T and accidentally letting out all the refrigerant. lol definately would put a valve core on that for me.

I use apion tee’s. They are low loss with schraders on both male ends of the tee. So doesn’t matter if you pull just the probe off. Or the tee with the probe.

I don't understand how taking a low pressure (vapor line) reading at the condenser translates to the pressure in the evaporator. Why is it not industry standard to take low pressure (vapor line) reading at the evaporator?
@8799crosby 19 күн бұрын
There is no ports at the evap .
@mtbbiker6401 19 күн бұрын
@@8799crosby So we are measuring total super heat temp using thermometer near the service port at the condenser (outdoor unit for heat pump) and measuring the pressure at the same service port to measure the temperature at the evaporator (indoor unit for heat pump). We measure pressure to convert to temperature. If we are measuring the temp and the pressure at the same spot, why don't the temp readings match? I'm trying to understand the physics behind this. Does it have to do due with saturation temp, sensible heat, latent heat?
@EricJohnson-dr5wb 17 күн бұрын
@@mtbbiker6401good question. The pressure on the low side is essentially the same in the evaporator as it is at the low side service port. The vast majority of the cooling is due to the liquid to vapor phase change in the evaporator coil. The additional heating of the 100% vapor is the superheat. You want there to be some superheat to prevent liquid refrigerant from entering and damaging the compressor.

sadly most techs will hook up and immediately say it's good or needs refrigerant because companies are so focused on getting techs in and out as fast as possible. Most expect a complete diagnosis to be complete in 30 min max preferably less.

High pressure
@WhatIsYourCard Ай бұрын
The liquid side is at a high pressure while the system is running. Connecting the refrigerant jug to the suction line, which is a lower pressure, will suck the refrigerant into the system.
