When adding refrigerant to a refrigeration system, there are several different methods a technician can use to determine the correct amount needed.

Inexperienced service technicians have a tendency to add refrigerant to a troubled system in order to remedy a problem. Because of this, many systems are operating with an overcharge of refrigerant.

When the nameplate charge is not specified, there are guidelines and techniques all technicians should follow when charging a system.

Optimizing refrigerant charge has always been a key part of designing cooling systems and balancing their efficiency, reliability, performance, and cost. But recently, that balance has shifted, and refrigeration engineers are once again looking at refrigerant as a key piece of the puzzle.

This product is under 40 pounds and automates the system evacuation and recharge process.

Bob and Tim are at a job where a customer has damaged a refrigerant line on a heat pump. When they arrive, the line is still blowing a slight amount of vapor from the split in the line.

It seems like charging a residential cooling system with refrigerant should be a fairly straightforward procedure.

Some refrigeration systems are designed to be installed using a pre-charged line set.

This smart charging unit offers automatic operation for intuitive, consistent system evacuation and refrigerant filling.

This product offers charging capabilities in a stand-alone storage product. While many contractors struggle with jumbled bags of tools and batteries, this storage bag keeps everything organized.
