Hi I am new to the trade. I have completed my first year of tech training but we never charged a system. So I am hoping that someone can give me a good step by step procedure for charging a split system. I realize this comes of like a bizaar request but I have no journeyman to teach me properly. anyway I hope one of you will help. Thanks for your time.
Good luck

Go to the tech college you went to and demand a refund on your education.

Mostly electrical, controls, fluid dynamics etc. Theory in general. The training program is in transition as it gets slowly standardized by the province.Mostly I want tips on how to shave time down. And maybe an idea of the best ways to do it or equipment. I have a yellow jacket scale btw KB lol. Do the bottles have enough pressure for charging all systems or do you use a pump?
Best way to shave off time , is make sure you have a new pair of really sharp scissors
and dont buy the cheap ones from Kmart
Remind me of a guy telling me how he charge
He said " he just make sure big line is beer can cold
Then he knows it's full
Too funny.

the best way to charge a system is by manufactures chart.
Read that several times.
Then come back and ask your questions.

And where was this tech training himark if so you need to go to a real school and if it wasn't you'd be an apprentice and would have tech you'd be learning under. So something don't jive
For some reason I learn more with my mouth shut
Why is my vaccum pump not pumping the refer into the system?
If he is Canadian sounds like a HighMark Graduate to me. If it was a Proper College like George brown Then the Op would be Off to the Races.
Sounds like a DIY trying to learn how to fill his low AC of juice but what do I know Im an HVAC/R Tech
wow these people are rude, i understand, i also went through a 4 year school and the way they teach you is not very good, untill you get hands on or someone to walk you through it it can seem difficult, contact me and i will try and help you, it would be easier to walk you through it on the phone, ************ send me an email and ill shoot you my number,
and to all you rude people out there, there was once a day when you were learning, is it that difficult to help out someone trying to learn the trade, atleast he has the desire to learn it right rather than fake it and ruin someones system

This may come as a surprise , but uh , this isnt a" hands on experience " chatroom. What can we possibly offer that the school hasnt already taught after a years time ?
There are plenty of videos on youtube
This area is for techs , sorry but thats the way it is
Generally speaking we don't post ANY "step by step" info in the open forums.
Apply for Pro membership and ask again in Pro Residential.
You will know you have been approved when you see "Professional Member" under your username.
Sounds to me like you need an apprenticeship....

come on give the guy a break<<< he is trying to learn as we were at some time
100 years ago when i was first starting beer can cold was the way it was taught. as time went on you learn the right way
google super heat and subcooling
norn chriss is the best when it come to this and has a few articals on the subject
good luck and keep striving
Read through your book for proper methods of charge. Get a sliding charging chart from local supply company. The way to shave time down is not having to come back to a call you just left. Just learn from your mistakes youll be alright.
Same feeling here, hkempf. I was blown away by the negativity. I'm glad all of you were able to locate and attend a "high class"
trade school. Mine was crappy, and I needed the help of others (and still do) to learn the hands on part. Poster could be a DIYer, but could be just a newbie (with possibly poor training) that needs some help. Isn't that what this sight is about??
I know the trade school guys near me are pretty sad, I saved money and did it all in the field, I do wish I went to school for the basics. I cant believe a school didn't teach that stuff.
Guys really? Think about it most tech schools are all books. I luckly went to one that was half books and hands on. Google utube go to a library. People forget where they came from... sad man tryin to make it in the world gets shot down.
