The tanks typically have a weight stamp on the side or handle. Just in case you grab a partially filled tank. Also if you do fill a tank partially make sure to mark what type of refrigerant you recovered in that tank! Great video Tad!!
Good video watching from Paris.
Pretty smooth operation.
Great tutorial. 🥉
Greetings from Milan Italy
Thank you very much!
Zero penguins were harmed in the making of this video . Great Video Taddy . The higher the prices of these refrigerants sure got me saving every last drop of precious cooling juice . And we're protecting the EARTH at the same time ! Great video can I have a reclaimer now ? mine is on the fritz again
Can you do a charging videos also? How to add the correct amount of charge in the system
I have several check out my playlist hvac tips for technicians
Great video Tad keep up the hard work. Can you do a video on how to answer your phone politely when you have a HVAC business? Requested video. And how to talk to your customers the right way
Yes absolutely I can do that
I wish someone would have told me that the recovery tank needed prep. I don't remember learning that in school, nor did my coworkers mention this. Thanks for sharing. from mid tn.
Me and my boy just watched some of your videos together! He said he wants to be a CZcamsr and I told him about people like you that have a career and use CZcams as well! Very inspiring!
I love it. Thank you so much for sharing this.
I love you guys, stay healthy,stay happy 😊
I just picked up my NR7 a couple days ago haven’t used it yet but watching this made me excited!
Tad I’ve been eyeing that same recovery machine for awhile now, thanks for letting us see it in action! You the man ! 🤘🏽
Thanks for uploading 👍
Thank you so much for a great video 🙏🏻👍
Thanks 👍 this is perfect bro nicee
Nice. Thanks
Awesome video!
Awesome content tad!!!
Thanks Tad been waiting to buy a recovery tank until we had the a2ls, I was looking at this same one and now that you made a video Ill have to get one.
Excellent news, brother. I'm glad I'm here to make the video. I'm glad you're here as well. Stay healthy stay happy my friend
@@TaddyDigest As always, you are a great man Tad try to never miss you videos or shorts, very informative and professional. Stay easy man, keep cool this summer.
Taddy. Great info bro! Bryan from Chicago
Great video from West Tennessee
Thank your sir. Awesome presentation 👏
You are most welcome
I always thought all recovery machines were the same, I guess the bigger the condenser the better it can recover.
Bad ass!
Hi mate!
Here in France, we brake the vacuum with Nitrogen.
It’s forbiden to leave réfrigérant in the atmosphere.
And when we put hoses on a system we have to make the vacuum in all the équipment…
It’s little be boring but if we don’t to this you can loose your fluid license.
and that my friends is why you should vote REPUBLICAN
@@worlddemize maybe, maybe not.
Question from a new tech - why did you add a small amount of refrigerant to the recovery tank that you just vacuumed before recovering from the condenser unit?
Just a show to everyone who watches the video that we are going to be recovering 410a
Hey Tad any videos on r290 and the A2L coming out next year??
any recommendations for a new tech that works on mostly minisplits 3 ton or less for a first time recovery machine? want to add one to my tools so i can take on bad compressor swap jobs or replacement jobs
Question from a new technician. If this unit can be pumped down into the out door coil, could we also pump it down into the indoor coil to change the drier?
It can only be pumped into the outdoor section. Because we use the compressor to pump it, then we use the valves to keep it inside
What is the reason for replacing the evaporator and filter? Debris restriction?
Tadd R32 and 410a uses synthetic oil while R22 uses mineral oil. I use separate gauges to prevent mixing of oils.. can you use a single recovery unit for both types??
Having separate recovery units would be pretty expensive and as long as you clear out the hoses and make sure that you don't mix refrigerants.Then I don't see a problem with using just one
I have a question? Why do you put 410 A into the recovery tank after you pull a vacuum on it to prepare it? Why wouldn’t you just hook up the recovery tank that has the vacuum on it to the recovery unit without adding 410 A first? I’m confused.
I just do it to show that it's the same Refrigerant, we are going to recover.
I could have removed that step and still been fine.
@@TaddyDigest Oh okay. Thank you so much for the response and the awesome video. I’ve learned so much watching your video content. God bless 🙏
@OSAS726 also, If your not vacuuming the tank on site, you want to break the vacuum with some refrigeratiant because the recovery tanks can leak atmosphere under vacuum. (Or so I've been told by LG and naavac training, I haven't tested it myself)
@@oilandfireguy1739 I really appreciate your response. Thank you so much for that information. God bless.
@@OSAS726 glad it could help, I'm reasonably new to hvac my self! Don't wanna come off as a pro, so I like to share my sources of info

Put that recovery tank in ice filled 5 gallon bucket. Much faster.
Question from someone that knows nothing about HVAC... How to do you braze the copper when changing the evaporator coil without running nitrogen through it? I guess that would not be possible since you're holding the refrigerant out in the condenser unit?.. not sure if that makes any sense.
If you're changing the indoor coil, you can still run nitrogen through the line sets and the coil to change it
@@TaddyDigest ohh ok so you would tap into the service port at the condenser unit which is past the valve that's locking all the refrigerant in therefore being on the evaporator side on the line set correct?
@anobody5708 Yes absolutely that's correct
@@TaddyDigest Thanks!!
Did you have indoor fan running?
So 80% on a 30 pound tank no more than 24 pounds?
I used a G5 and the pressures keep rising. Works for about 20-30 seconds then it cuts off. Wait about a min then turn off and on does the same thing. Did that for prolly an hour to recover 4lbs. Then finished it off with the Depot recovery bucket that never fails.
Followed the step by step instructions, new recovery tank.
Why would it do that?
I'm not sure that's very unusual
@@TaddyDigest a comment elsewhere said it was because the tank was too hot and going off on high pressure. I believe that was my issue
I am not sure when you purge your hoses. Review the video and correct me.
Thank you for the video 💪🏼 🫡
