Yeah when you're supposed to always have three points of contact on the ladder it's rather hard to carry in a 50 lb recovery cylinder up a ladder. If I'm somewhere where I can be seen from the road I try to follow the rules.

I'm tired of these mediocre "semi flammable" refrigerants. If we're going to do it let's do it right.
Unless we change direction we are likely to end up where we are going.

I carry 3 ropes. The thinner one is longer so use you can tie something onto each end, the other two get progressively thicker for heavier loads. Using all 3 today, saves a lot of trips up-and-down the ladder.
I do a triple evac with nitro to remove non condensables.

Yeah I've got a nice soft half inch thick rope that I use but I don't do a lot of roof work and when I do it's not generally very tall. The fat rope sure is more comfortable on the hands.

Man around here there is a ton of friggin crawl holes in closets or garages that ya gotta have an 8ft ladder to get into. So damn frustrating to have to take the time to get it off the top of truck, pack it inside the house and upstairs into a tiny closet full of shat that ends up needing moved out just so the ladder will just barely fit. There is Also a lot of places that when it comes time for a changeout, idk how they will get the old equipment out much less the new stuff up. Guess knock a hole in a ceiling somewhere and make big access.

I keep a 12' telescoping ladder on the truck for that stuff easy to manuvure
