Unless your gauge is only servicing one refrigerant and you're keeping the gas in the hoses in between connections, you're loosing quite a bit more gas from the system by pressurizing the hoses when you connect them to the system than you are by just attaching the hoses and loosing a little hiss or spritz of liquid, aren't you? Unless you're _really_ slow when you screw the fittings on.

@@WaffleStaffel And since refrigerant loss damaging the ozone layer, and now they say ozone safe refrigerants still need to need replaced because they have to high of a (shit I just had training on it and don't recall what the scam was) we gotta switch again. I like pepperage farms remember when we purged and pressure tested R-22 systems with R-12 because it was cheaper than nitrogen. Funny how the OMG R-12 is killing the ozone layer happened when DuPonts patent expired. I also remember then they came for R-22 using the same reasons, so R410A came out. It was said to be ozone friendly, safe for the environment etc. But here we are again, and R410A is evil, and we must replace it with R454B, its already stated that in 10 or so years we will need to replace R454B....do you see the pattern I see?

Lots and lots of units where there's not enough room to fit these due to bad engineering from the manufacturer not thinking about the service techs. Price is too much. Obviously the hoses must still fill up with refrigerant. So there may be less squirts upon connecting and disconnecting, there's still refrigerant loss in the gauges and hoses.

There have been designs like those before from about 10 years ago. The problem was when disconnecting if the Schrader valve is bad once you release the fitting, you're gonna have the refrigerant spraying out. With the low loss fitting, as your unscrewing it outside of the initial spurt of refrigerant if for some reason, you detect a more constant release, at that moment, you have the potential to realize that the Schrader valve might have stuck. At that moment, in time, he won't be in as bad a position as you would, as if you just detached the quick coupler and had a dead spray of refrigerant coming out into your face . From what I have been able to tell and I am no engineer by any means is that the standard quarter inch connectors tend to be a piece of brass that screws on and pulls a nylon cone against the valve to seal it. The anti-blowback/loss fittings Are basically the same thing except instead of having the nylon cone they use the same thing that those fittings use which is an O-ring to seal when they are tightened.

Now that's a sweet setup there. Time saving & much less loss of refrigerant. Every customer always asks or say I paid for the refrigerant that you just let go. They always say they being the AC guys in the field. We always put in a little extra just for that measure. Yeah okay. 🫣 Love the video! Will definitely check out the expansion and understanding of home units. You would think it would be just the same as commercial but they are not. Fundamentally they run the same but with commercial you have higher voltage either at 240 volts but we ran 277 volts. Contact relays etc etc. I would like to brush up and deeply appreciate the opportunity to possibly join and win something that would progress my knowledge in the field. Thank you kindly 🕊️

You're looking at around 3 oz of refrigerant per hose loss every time you connect a manifold set with standard length hoses. Do that enough times and you ARE the leak. Yes, you could disconnect the high-side and pump the gauges down but you're looking at possible contaminants or a non-condensable unless you bled your manifold first. Anytime you open a system to check pressures there is going to be a loss, the idea is to limit that as much as possible. When I got to the point, I needed to check super-heat or sub-cooling I had over the years, built multiple sets consisting of only of high and low side gauges dependent on the equipment connected directly to a low loss access fitting. A simple Cooper electronic thermometer with decent set of clamp-on probes will with those gauges tell you everything you need to know and the refrigerant loss is much less than with a manifold even if it's properly bled and pumped down. Here is where I piss a lot of people off, why did you open that system to install a manifold in the first place? If you've got a good TD, compressor amps are in a narrow range of 80% FLA , you KNOW the coils are clean and airflow correct and there are no odd noises or vibrations what are you looking for? TD will point you toward airflow, capacity or refrigerant, compressor amps will point you to refrigerant, or an electrical/mechanical issue. Unless something is pointing you in that direction why are you opening a system?

Which tell me I need to get them trained in explaining why they don't need to hook up unless their is an issue, they can gather all the info needed if their isn't an issue without hooking up. Sometimes I am told they do it because the customer expects it, thus more training is needed so the can educate the costumer on why and when to hook up or not.

@@ZERO-F2G- I think that's the way they are trained in many of the technical schools these days. The biggest problem is I've seen so many that all they did was hook up a set of gauges not realizing that is only one of the tools you can use. Another problem I've seen are kids coming from technical schools that cannot calculate super-heat or sub-cooling unless they have a electronic manifold that tells them what it is. That indicates to me they really don't understand the concept and are just doing what they've been instructed to do. It also means when they run into their first "problem child" they are going to be stuck and have no idea what to do next. The smart ones, who realize they don't know everything and there is always something new to learn will ask for help from the manufacturer or a more experienced tech. The others are just another call back waiting to happen. Experience will eventually level the playing field. We all run into something we've never seen for the first time. It's how we handle and work through it that makes the difference.

Couldn't agree more!! Hooking up gauges is a last resort!! I just got hired at a company. I've been in the field several years. They told me I had to check pressures on every maintenance. I said "nope! Not doing that" if you are a decent technician, you will understand why hooking up gauges should be done only when you have no other option. You can check the charge using other methods; check the outdoor ambient temperature and compare it to the temperature coming out of the top of the condenser. Use a temp clamp and check the temperature of the line set. Check DT... Sooooo many things you can check before having to hook up gauges.

I think that the Sealright hoses work great and are a fraction of the price. You lose an extremely minimal amount, if any, refrigerant. I've used these hoses for a couple of years now.

In most cases measuring temperature on each line and referring to a PT chart is sufficient. I only put gauges on for vacuuming or adding Freon.

True. There are a lot of units you could get one of these on and not the other. Im about to upgrade and get the job link setup. Those wireless/hoseless ones barely release any refrigerant. But, like these, they just can't be used sometimes.

just as recent as last week, r410a cost me $236 per 25lb jug. To think i would spend $200 for each set (straight and 90 degree) of these, is ludicrous to save a couple of squirts of refrigerant(especially, when the EPA said that a small amount of refrigerant loss is acceptable when connect and disconnect hoses). This is for the new techs only. As for seasoned HVAC+R techs, if you have been doing HVAC for a while, you know that there are, at least. three cheaper more effective ways to minimize refrigerant loss, than even the low loss fittings.

Or, spend $20 for some charging valves… Basically, you attach the valve and then turn the screw to depress the Schrader… I use these and there is just too much variance is fittings and it allows you control over when the Schrader gets depressed…
