Before hooking the pipe from tank to recovery machine you should have suck the excess refrigerant in pipe by opening suction manifold valve as result you don’t lose any gas. anyway is the best method so far on youtube well done 👍
Great video but next time use gloves obviously for safety, purge your yellow hose so you Avoid Contamination and also there is a difference between recovery, recycling and reclaim
I just bought gauges but one of them doesn’t have a plastic cover on it. Do I need to buy one if so where?? And if I don’t is it dangerous to not have one on it?
would have been nice to see the final weight of the recovery cylinder after the refrigerant was reclaimed. What do you do with it after it's in the cylinder?
Depending on the refrigerant used and why it has been recovered.. R22 shown in the video can be recovered and placed back in the system after repairs are complete, other than a burnt out compressor then best to use a fresh batch
Good job. Please wear your hand and eye protection. I know an instructor who burnt *froze* his cornea on feon. Eye safety and gloves. Recommended. Insurance companies mandate, medical bills are expensive. St. Freon Cloud. Just kidding..
I don't know why one would " recover " the refrigerant. Is it a maintenance issue like purge the system to replace some component that cannot be isolated. Why is the weight of the refrigerant added to the tank so important? I would think pressure may be an issue but is there no a factor of safety + a relief valve? Ok my neighbor decommissions a/c compression type systems and purges the systems in some cases because the refrigerant is no longer available for some Gore idiotic reasoning about ozone depletion. So what happens to these banned refrigerants? Recycled refrigerant or reclaimed refrigerant. So I side tracked into the abyss of what are we recovering. I know not why “Small is Beautiful”. Just wading into this A/C subject. More to learn.
Nirvana Urantian the weighing thing is for report/record purposes as to how much refrigerant you have recovered/reclaimed. They dont recycle refrigerants. Its either reused in the system as long as the system is or will be using the same type of refrigerant. Otherwise, the old refrigerant will be sent to a refrigerant company to destroy the refrigerant in a safe and clean-air manner.
Well there are actually a few good reasons for weighing the recovered refrigerant. First, you cannot fill a recovery tank past 80% of its max capacity to prevent over-pressurization due to temperature changes. Second, you might need to add new refrigerant back into the system, weighing the recovered charge allows you to know exactly how much was taken out, so you can put the same amount back in.
Make shure you know how to spell "sure" and "plugged" before you turn on youtube and upload your instructional videos.. lmao.. I'm sorry, I had to do it..
2 things wrong 1. You did a recovery, not a reclaim 2. You didnt bleed the system which in this case you mixed the air with the refrigerent. You failed
This is shocking College? Purge? Latex gloves? The American standard of acceptable refrigerant loss. I'd advise anyone watching this that you call a competent service technician. Refrigerant can be harmful if not handled correctly.
And you didn't do a reclaim, you did a recovery.
good pro
Good for you for getting out and learning a trade, ignore the haters, all learning comes with the hazards of mistakes.
Before hooking the pipe from tank to recovery machine you should have suck the excess refrigerant in pipe by opening suction manifold valve as result you don’t lose any gas. anyway is the best method so far on youtube well done 👍
when you put the yellow hose to the recovery mach. you forgot to bled the hose so you mixed air to the recovery tank.
Freezing thunder . Glad I’m not the only one that saw that #dumbteacher
Definitely didn’t purge.
Great video but next time use gloves obviously for safety, purge your yellow hose so you Avoid Contamination and also there is a difference between recovery, recycling and reclaim
Good video bro...im new as well, however im in the feild learning. You helped me a bunch, good info👍
I like that edit at 2:50 Make sure we don't see you venting 🤣🤣🤣🤣great video
bruh lmao
"Make shure you pluged it in before you tun it on lol."
Homie got a lil thug in him
No purge of line before opening tank valve?
I just bought gauges but one of them doesn’t have a plastic cover on it. Do I need to buy one if so where?? And if I don’t is it dangerous to not have one on it?
ExcellentThanks
YOU HAVE TO PURGE THE LINES
would have been nice to see the final weight of the recovery cylinder after the refrigerant was reclaimed. What do you do with it after it's in the cylinder?
Depending on the refrigerant used and why it has been recovered.. R22 shown in the video can be recovered and placed back in the system after repairs are complete, other than a burnt out compressor then best to use a fresh batch
Other gases like the 400 series R410, R407 etc.. cannot be reused once recovered and must be sent for destruction/reclaiming
Is there an issue with refrigerant oil ???
reclaim is the process of making recovered refrigerant new(virgin) also you didn't purge the hose, but overall good video thanks.
Anyone who attaches gauges to a system should know the difference between recover and reclaim.
Purge young man, Purge!
How do you say recover muiltiple times through the vid but get the title for the video wrong.
Good video.
Air Mechanical thanks
Gott damn. Being kinda hard on this student
Good job. Please wear your hand and eye protection.

St. Freon Cloud.
Just kidding..
Hi camera man Zach Peters, I'm Roy Peters, also in operating engineering lol what are chances
Pongale 0 lineas w air
Perfect place to make a video where its really loud we cant hear you.
Ion think this reclaiming. Look more like recovering

Bro
There is so much noise
Pick up a better place to record
Thanks
You never purged the hose. Wtf is this.
ref'rant is already contaminated, without purging the system prior recovery.
Make shure you know how to spell "sure" and "plugged" before you turn on youtube and upload your instructional videos.. lmao.. I'm sorry, I had to do it..
This is not the right way.
Hey you, why don't you go outside and do the video, are you behind a waterfall or in six flags?
2 things wrong
1. You did a recovery, not a reclaim
2. You didnt bleed the system which in this case you mixed the air with the refrigerent.
You failed
This is so incompetent.
This is shocking
College?
Purge? Latex gloves?
The American standard of acceptable refrigerant loss.
I'd advise anyone watching this that you call a competent service technician.

I can’t bare to watch.
You mean you can't >bear< to watch????
Doesn't purge a thing... Cringe big time...
Obviously I am better off hiring nobody.
Still I'd say keep going, you'll get better
you doing it all wrong sir you need to go back to school or training
Theses are terrible practices buddy you better do some more studies and somewhere else I would advise
