Thanks. All good advice. This particular system,we can shut down too long. So it will be one step at a time. Turn off,check,turn on and bring the temp back down. Then turn off and continue with the...

Agree,building your own system from different scrap pieces would be your best way to learn. Have a tx system so you experiment with adjustments. But I would think the evaporator would need to be...

It's an oldie. CGAFC604AGA1000F000N000TOW00. One of our senior techs thinks it's the circuit breaker itself, so far everything else checks out. And I did mean to post this in the Pro section. But...

Had a Trane Chiller. 2 circuits. Each with 2 twinned Compressors. Circuit 1 Compressor,intermittently will trip the Factory installed Circuit Breaker that feeds the Contactor.When on site,all is...

Curious. Is there a master list out there that shows all the alternative refers, thier requirements, capacity loss estimates and proper conversion steps? All spelled out in one neat little read?...

Why? JB no good?

And why? Was there a high pressures issue to begin with?

So if only 1 micron gauge, where would you prefer to put it? Liquid or suction? Or,no matter?

At least the ceiling is now fully insulated. :whistle:

So this brings us to another question. Is there such a thing as pulling a system into a vacuum too fast? I understand there is.

The Appions are shipped with plastic male Caps,if I lose one,i get a 1/4 or 3/8 flare plug just to keep the dirt out. I only have 1 micron gauge,but I should get another one someday. And I Stole most...

I have the Appion 1/2" hoses, 1/4 × 3/8 connections. My pump has a 1/4, witch I cap with a little Nylog,a 3/8 and a 1/2", witch I reduce with a 1/2 to 3/8 reducer with a copper gasket. Micron goes on...

Any decent, reliable,not expensive device out there for reading room or box temperature and humidity? Not looking to break the bank, something simple. T.y.

My ,like this post, button still don't work. So, thank you!

Anyone recommend a good setup for water loop flow testing? I remember seeing one advertised at the back of manual, possibly Belimo. Maybe $150 or so. Had 2 gauges,hoses & connectors. I never had much...

I've seen a bunch of Condos have that issue the First Winter after the Contractor was long gone. Best solution at that time was run the drain indoors.Furnaces were in a Garage,high up. If need be, it...

Yeah,thats what a local supplier tried to sell me,$150.00,but an orifice is like,$10.00. I might just stick a crowbar in my wallet and get the whole assembly.

Awesome. I remember my old source had a catalog of parts,not exactly manufacturer original,but close enough. They were cheap,but had a minimum. But he needed some stuff anyway. I got to find that...

Thanks!!!

M#B34DR2 S#2-030312-106187. I had a Co worker who did a lot of Propane,get me a couple different pilots a few years back and one matched up,but he no longer works with us.So any information anyone...

Anyone have a source for replacement parts? I just need a Pilot orifice. My local supplier wants to sell me the entire setup,$$$. Propane,and it's my own,not a Customer's. I've cleaned it in the...

Only flow Nitrogen if you care.............. To do things correctly!!!

If your doing sidework for someone,then it means that someone is too squeaky to pay a ligit contractor in the first place. No Thanks!

I've plugged my UEI thermometer in backwards (+ -)before,and it reads wrong.

And you broke His B*lls! :grin2:

Getting to and cleaning all the little screens Daiken uses, may be the hard part!

Anyone know why Both B and O terminals on an old T87N would be wired? It's a Rooftop Heat pump. Never got to the roof,no time,was there for other issues. But they want a 9000 WiFi installed,so I...

5/16"? Pink Appion vcrt, I got! :grin2:

Pull and weigh charge to confirm refer amount. Fix kink.New Drier. Pull into a deep Vac. Recharge proper amount. It's the only way to you'll gonna know for sure if it's the ONLY issue. Or Fix kink on...

Have the 1/2 inch Appion Hoses with 3/8 and 1/4 connections,didn't want to have to use a lot of reducing fittings. I like the Heavy Duty connections and Hoses seem tough! But pulling through a micro...

If it's a regular account ,drill two holes but enough for gauges!

Saw an old thread about this. Anyone have it,know how to acquire it? How exactly does it work? I've Heard of it,j yet never seen or used it. Curious if it's worth an investment. And it's Rover. I...

I do think some liquid leak detectors are too thick to begin with. Some I dilute with a little water.

And No Ducts=cleaner air...if maintained!

Not if you use the + or - 5% rule. I've seen 6% and 10% used also.When in doubt,get the exact replacement!

I know some Techs that will leave running for 24 hours or more, regardless of how low they read. I never understood why? Below your target is below you target,no matter how long it took.

You stated artificially low reading. So if I read below 500 on a Micron Gauge,am I seeing what I am believing?

Refrigerants,Oil. What goes with what. What does what. What works Best? Getting crowded with all the choices. Most companies should have a Service Manager to help make those decisions. If not then...

New today could be old tomorrow! If you don't have a Service Manager to keep up with the changes,then it's up to the tech. But that's what keeps this Trade interesting! And frustrating.

Nice when the tenants who get home at 5:00 pm,and then decide to call for a Drip that's been happening for a month, with out regard for your Home life.

I was going to sane the same...How much do you like your Girlfriend? I did have a Neighbor ask me once if I, or if I knew someone, who could hook up their Refrigerant lines that He ran himself for...

My old company did work for various Properties and Property Management companies. The Management Companies could never keep help long-term. Pay and after hour calls drove the good help away.

Maybe I didn't let it cool long enough. But after waiting and then testing,my windings tested good,not opened.

That makes sense,I don't believe I was reading LRA correctly.Because it did drop to around 60 after a second or two.

Maybe I'm not interpreting L.R.A. correctly. It tries to start at 130+,but then amp draw goes below 86. But compressor won't run. My suction side seems very high,even at equalized standing...

Had a Tecumseh AWA2460ZXD,R404A, drawing 130 lra,rated for 80. Very Hot on arrival. Won't start,just buzzes. All components tested good. After cooling,tested for open,short and grounded windings,all...

Id rather see the Face I'm dealing with. That way you can recognize them if need be!

So would 400 mics be adequate,or should you keep going by the clock?

Is that possible?:grin2::cheers:

Would it take longer to pull into a vac because the tube/plates are smaller,or make your pump work Harder? Or does less capacity=less work?
