00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:07.520 Okay, a nice old unit has a unit low on Freon. 00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:09.339 Can you see one of these 00:00:09.339 --> 00:00:11.320 energy 00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:11.919 uh ... 00:00:11.919 --> 00:00:17.839 devices that switch the AC on the front of the unit some of the electrical companies here in California 00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:19.879 hook these up so they can rotate the 00:00:19.879 --> 00:00:24.689 unity at peak hours and if they succeed at a bit of uh ... energy 00:00:24.689 --> 00:00:27.960 saving you, gives you a cheaper rate on you 00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:30.570 air conditioner. This one is real 00:00:30.570 --> 00:00:36.860 mounted on the service door. 00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:41.030 Anyway I'm going to take off this door. 00:00:41.030 --> 00:00:44.460 And I have a unit that is low on Freon. 00:00:44.460 --> 00:00:50.780 It's not that cool. 00:00:50.780 --> 00:00:57.780 At least not cooling anyway very well. 00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:00.510 Get in this and as 00:01:00.510 --> 00:01:02.160 I'll go down 00:01:02.160 --> 00:01:09.160 and turn the unit up 00:01:42.020 --> 00:01:49.020 Get the door here. Set it aside. There we go. Let's see what's going on here. 00:02:01.780 --> 00:02:02.760 I'm going to go ahead and get me 00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:05.150 meters here. 00:02:05.150 --> 00:02:09.519 And if lift it up here. 00:02:09.519 --> 00:02:16.519 My gauges are not in the best shape especially the high end, so I'm just going to load it through the low end today. 00:02:17.269 --> 00:02:24.269 It's time for me to order a few new meters. 00:02:24.579 --> 00:02:28.389 Right here is our service line hook up. 00:02:28.389 --> 00:02:32.529 And what you want to do is make sure 00:02:32.529 --> 00:02:33.999 the valve is off 00:02:33.999 --> 00:02:34.839 up here 00:02:34.839 --> 00:02:41.540 on the low side and the high side. OK 00:02:41.540 --> 00:02:44.899 Now remove my Schrader valve cap and listen for any kind of mockery. 00:02:44.899 --> 00:02:50.779 Indicate whether there is a leak. 00:02:50.779 --> 00:02:56.039 And it looks Ok. 00:02:56.039 --> 00:03:01.369 And it has these quick connecting accessories. You always want to use these quick connect accessories. 00:03:01.369 --> 00:03:08.119 You really want to wear gloves but since I'm just going through the high 00:03:08.119 --> 00:03:11.799 side. Not so bad I mean I just go through the low side. It's not that bad on the low side. 00:03:11.799 --> 00:03:14.469 A little worse on the high side. 00:03:14.469 --> 00:03:16.019 Ok now that 00:03:16.019 --> 00:03:23.019 line is hooked there we want to make sure we clear any air 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:24.419 of the lines. 00:03:24.419 --> 00:03:31.419 And if I go ahead and the middle yellow line can hook our coolant. 00:03:34.089 --> 00:03:41.089 To the top. 00:03:44.849 --> 00:03:47.760 And again 00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:49.879 one 00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:51.589 Quick Connect 00:03:51.589 --> 00:03:56.620 here. You do not need a quick connection here on the 00:03:56.620 --> 00:04:00.289 center line as much 00:04:00.289 --> 00:04:06.389 because you can turn the coolant down here. 00:04:06.389 --> 00:04:11.509 But anyway I have one on there like that. 00:04:11.509 --> 00:04:14.509 And they are going to be able to open refrigerant here. 00:04:14.509 --> 00:04:21.509 and it's R-22. Ok. 00:04:23.490 --> 00:04:24.280 Here we go and as our line cleans here 00:04:24.280 --> 00:04:26.459 So I'm just going to crack it. 00:04:26.459 --> 00:04:33.459 Leave out some of the coolant. And now we are ready to raise it. So I'm just going to open it for a second and please sit down and turn the unit up so we can ask. 00:04:39.430 --> 00:04:42.719 Yeah it feels like it's so low. Ok I'm going to walk downstairs. 00:04:42.719 --> 00:04:49.360 Then back. 00:05:43.819 --> 00:05:44.970 Ok. So it was at the moment. Everything is going well. 00:05:44.970 --> 00:05:46.430 The fan car is running. 00:05:46.430 --> 00:05:48.860 The compressor kicked on. 00:05:48.860 --> 00:05:50.710 and 00:05:50.710 --> 00:05:54.520 you can see it's like just ten pounds of pressure. 00:05:54.520 --> 00:05:55.910 Not too good. 00:05:55.910 --> 00:06:00.169 Definitely low on Freon like that. 00:06:00.169 --> 00:06:05.819 Oh yeah. Sounds thirsty. So I was busy in this unit yesterday 00:06:05.819 --> 00:06:12.430 and the air conditioner noticed was not cool so I knew I needed to get up here today. 00:06:12.430 --> 00:06:15.929 Get up here early before it gets hot. 00:06:15.929 --> 00:06:20.999 Here is the accumulator and it is getting cold 00:06:20.999 --> 00:06:24.910 It is cold about half way up 00:06:24.910 --> 00:06:27.110 Anyway I'm just going to be doing one feel 00:06:27.110 --> 00:06:28.930 Because like I said my meters 00:06:28.930 --> 00:06:30.939 is kind of on their last leg. 00:06:30.939 --> 00:06:33.379 Time to replace them. 00:06:33.379 --> 00:06:37.589 See how loose I mean it can get tight, but 00:06:37.589 --> 00:06:40.969 also the needles are kind of bent and the caps 00:06:40.969 --> 00:06:43.229 is falling 00:06:43.229 --> 00:06:47.219 allowing time for some new meters 00:06:47.219 --> 00:06:48.160 but it is a cappilary tube system and 00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:52.889 The nice thing about a capillary tube system is it is a lot more forgiving than other systems 00:06:52.889 --> 00:06:56.210 It could actually be you should actually really kind of try to 00:06:56.210 --> 00:06:59.399 pay extra late this 00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:06.399 Anyway if it's nice and cold here on both sides of the accumulator as I know it's going to be good. So I'm just going to 00:07:07.919 --> 00:07:10.870 Wait until these flashes are nice and freezing cold. 00:07:10.870 --> 00:07:12.360 And as I said when I did 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:17.120 put a little extra refrigerant in it is going to be okay, because it's just it keeps in the pot. 00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:20.970 And the way the capillary tube system works is 00:07:20.970 --> 00:07:24.699 It is a fixed opening so that 00:07:24.699 --> 00:07:30.050 It just lets in so much coolant at a time 00:07:30.050 --> 00:07:32.500 You know if you pay a little extra this is not what you want 00:07:32.500 --> 00:07:34.489 can get more refrigerant through. 00:07:34.489 --> 00:07:37.440 It just saves it here and lets it pass. 00:07:37.440 --> 00:07:39.810 As long as you just load 00:07:39.810 --> 00:07:42.569 with vapor. 00:07:42.569 --> 00:07:46.030 You do not want to be able to turn and charge it with liquid because if the liquid is force 00:07:46.030 --> 00:07:47.590 stay in the lines 00:07:47.590 --> 00:07:54.289 and can actually cause fluid slugging of the compressor 00:07:54.289 --> 00:07:56.819 You can probably listen to the coolant 00:07:56.819 --> 00:08:02.800 goes into the system 00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:05.759 You can hear the change now as the pressure is on 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:08.750 balanced and more closer to where they are 00:08:08.750 --> 00:08:10.349 you should 00:08:10.349 --> 00:08:14.259 hear the sound difference become less coolant 00:08:14.259 --> 00:08:21.259 sucked in as it began to climb. 00:08:35.550 --> 00:08:40.260 We definitely have a leak somewhere. Possibly here at the Schrader valve. 00:08:40.260 --> 00:08:47.260 And this is where you usually get your lick. You can kind of see some signs of moisture or oil right there. I kind of suspect it is from the Schrader valve. I'll pop it off and take a peak inside the high end. 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:13.600 You can hear, the pressure now differs from the coolant that goes into a lot less than when we first did it. And it doesn't appear to be leaking from the Schrader valve so I'll go ahead and turn it back on. 00:09:25.190 --> 00:09:32.190 What I have is a leak repair add-on that I can add to the system because this one is good all summer long. It didn't go low on refrigerant or anything, so it just has a small micro leak in it somewhere. This additive is kind of good for as long as there is no moisture in the system. Ok, and the feeling of my line is still not cold. It's kind of hot. And we can see what our pressure is here. I'll try to get the camera to focus a bit. There we go. We go ahead and turn the hand valve off. 00:10:21.610 --> 00:10:23.870 Look where was up. Was over about £ 40 print there 00:10:23.870 --> 00:10:26.710 and on the green dial was only fifteen 00:10:26.710 --> 00:10:33.710 we have a way to go. You can probably hear it I'm about to turn back on. 00:10:47.220 --> 00:10:50.350 I hear a lot of people don't like these Janitrolls too much, though 00:10:50.350 --> 00:10:57.350 they are fairly easy to work up. Simple. 00:10:57.460 --> 00:10:59.090 Maybe I just got used to them now. 00:10:59.090 --> 00:11:06.090 Been here for a while. 00:11:16.400 --> 00:11:18.610 The kind of nice thing about the net 00:11:18.610 --> 00:11:19.910 load through the low end. 00:11:19.910 --> 00:11:21.660 If you use the high end you can get 00:11:21.660 --> 00:11:23.620 more of an accurate 00:11:23.620 --> 00:11:26.940 read what your refrigerant levels are but the nice thing about using only 00:11:26.940 --> 00:11:28.450 the low side 00:11:28.450 --> 00:11:29.300 it really is 00:11:29.300 --> 00:11:31.560 is going to release less Freon 00:11:31.560 --> 00:11:32.500 in the air 00:11:32.500 --> 00:11:33.580 in the atmosphere 00:11:33.580 --> 00:11:35.360 when you clean the high side 00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.660 it can be a lot more Freon out 00:11:38.660 --> 00:11:42.470 and you know the high side is your liquid side so that when 00:11:42.470 --> 00:11:45.590 you disconnect your hose to your finish 00:11:45.590 --> 00:11:46.990 and you have to release it too 00:11:46.990 --> 00:11:48.500 friend what in the pipe 00:11:48.500 --> 00:11:54.090 all that liquid refrigerant is there 00:11:54.090 --> 00:11:56.040 to release you with everything 00:11:56.040 --> 00:11:58.690 but it just goes through the low side 00:11:58.690 --> 00:12:05.690 this is the release of a little less Freon. I'm sure some people disagree with me, but that's OK. 00:12:20.900 --> 00:12:24.030 anyway when you work with refrigerant you long enough 00:12:24.030 --> 00:12:27.320 will probably be a day where you reach 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:29.410 meters really do not work properly 00:12:29.410 --> 00:12:36.410 and you are going to need to be able to feel the unity 00:12:36.530 --> 00:12:37.890 or by temperature 00:12:37.890 --> 00:12:39.940 and the other way we can do it 00:12:39.940 --> 00:12:46.940 Look for the 15-20 degree split within the unit on an incoming and outgoing register. 00:12:47.430 --> 00:12:54.430 I have a video on that if you want to see that I can link to this video. 00:13:02.380 --> 00:13:04.670 She starts to get there. 00:13:04.670 --> 00:13:11.670 This is the beginning of a little colder feeling down here. Allright. 00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:15.530 On the roof 00:13:15.530 --> 00:13:17.730 Palm Springs here. 00:13:17.730 --> 00:13:19.300 Gives you a little view around. Look around. 00:13:19.300 --> 00:13:22.950 While this thing is asking here. 00:13:22.950 --> 00:13:24.930 Pretty nice on that 00:13:24.930 --> 00:13:27.020 palm trees here. 00:13:27.020 --> 00:13:30.410 My palm trees are due for some pruning. 00:13:30.410 --> 00:13:34.200 Do you have a lot of dates on them. 00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:36.170 Pretty good dates. 00:13:36.170 --> 00:13:43.170 I snacked on some. 00:13:45.510 --> 00:13:52.280 If you look around you can see the mountains there. 00:13:52.280 --> 00:13:53.609 Its a pretty cool day. 00:13:53.609 --> 00:13:55.710 It actually cooled down here now. 00:13:55.710 --> 00:14:00.690 This summer was a little lighter. 00:14:00.690 --> 00:14:04.880 I think the hottest it has in one nineteen, something like it was. 00:14:04.880 --> 00:14:08.610 I remember a few days where it was a hundred and sixteen. It was pretty hot. 00:14:08.610 --> 00:14:14.730 but I have other summers where it hit as high as a hundred and twenty seven degrees and 00:14:14.730 --> 00:14:16.010 so this summer was pretty light. 00:14:16.010 --> 00:14:21.270 I left easily. 00:14:21.270 --> 00:14:24.870 I got through and well 00:14:24.870 --> 00:14:26.690 our prevalent maintenanced 00:14:26.690 --> 00:14:33.690 the heck out of our air conditioning units to make it a better summer so. We have a much better summer. 00:14:43.500 --> 00:14:45.690 It can take any time. 00:14:45.690 --> 00:14:51.480 There are a few ways to speed up the charge. 00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:53.120 With the compressor low on Freon 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:54.710 help the Freon cool 00:14:54.710 --> 00:14:56.040 the compressor and 00:14:56.040 --> 00:14:59.700 with the compressor low on Freon the compressor starts to get pretty hot. 00:14:59.700 --> 00:15:06.700 If you pack an ice cream, you can put it on top here and that charge can accelerate. Or some really cold water, so I have some really cold water. And I'm just going to pour it here. Avoid electrical contacts, of course. And that helps speed up the charge a bit. She starts to get there. 00:15:44.660 --> 00:15:51.660 Ok, after I'm done I'll follow it up with that leaking additive. To seal any leaks here. 00:16:02.930 --> 00:16:04.830 See this line down to the bottom of the compressor 00:16:04.830 --> 00:16:05.910 kind of funny 00:16:05.910 --> 00:16:12.910 it is actually a heater. It heats the bottom of the compressor. 00:16:13.110 --> 00:16:20.110 And what does it help when it first starts to be in kind of the right state for starting the compressor. 00:16:38.790 --> 00:16:40.940 Right here is a filter drier. 00:16:40.940 --> 00:16:42.300 You can see the arrow 00:16:42.300 --> 00:16:45.290 this way. 00:16:45.290 --> 00:16:52.230 On a heat pump the arrow shows both ways, because a heat pump has 00:16:52.230 --> 00:16:59.230 a reversing valve where it changes the direction true if here around the condenser is the removal of heat from the unit. 00:17:03.450 --> 00:17:10.450 and at the evaporator it absorbs heat. On a heat pump it can switch to where you know the 00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:14.240 evaporator is absorbing heat and the condenser emits the heat 00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:21.130 it can switch on a heat pump back to where now the condenser becomes the evaporator 00:17:21.130 --> 00:17:28.130 And the evaporator becomes the condenser. They switch roles. So you can heat your unit with a heat pump or you can cool a unit. Heat pumps are a lot more sensitive about the charge. 00:17:36.360 --> 00:17:43.360 Your charge should be a lot more accurate where as I talked to you these units capillary tubes so they are a lot more forgiving. It's around. Drink a little water myself. 00:18:04.390 --> 00:18:10.450 Give yourself another shot of Palm Springs here. 00:18:10.450 --> 00:18:15.460 The mountains there. 00:18:15.460 --> 00:18:20.210 There is a tram that goes all the way to the top of the mountain up there. I think there's like a cafe 00:18:20.210 --> 00:18:22.289 stuff like that. 00:18:22.289 --> 00:18:23.130 I've been here for like eight years 00:18:23.130 --> 00:18:25.550 I haven't got there yet. 00:18:25.550 --> 00:18:27.750 A day maybe. 00:18:27.750 --> 00:18:34.750 Or not 00:18:35.940 --> 00:18:42.940 A bird snacking on a few dates there. Happy campers. Alright see how we do here. It's around. It just takes a little time. 00:19:07.500 --> 00:19:09.200 This unit seems to be in pretty good condition 00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:16.200 for being 26 years old. Still kicking. Still kicking out of the cool air. How do you get there. 00:19:31.010 --> 00:19:37.800 It is an accumulator 00:19:37.800 --> 00:19:39.830 it helps prevent liquid refrigerant from getting to the 00:19:39.830 --> 00:19:46.830 compressor and slugging the pistons. 00:19:49.950 --> 00:19:56.950 A lot of units these days do not have on them some of the heat pumps have it inside the unit. 00:19:57.460 --> 00:20:01.860 These people did outside. They seem to be 00:20:01.860 --> 00:20:08.860 a few extra steps to preserve these units. This one doesn't have it, but on 00:20:11.750 --> 00:20:18.750 some of these other kids they have a like another safety device this one is taken out as on the high side it is a small piston in it has turned off as a protective. 00:20:26.910 --> 00:20:33.480 See if one of the other units has it. I'll be to you here. This one doesn't. 00:20:35.809 --> 00:20:40.520 bring you here if it takes a little time. Wow all these units are gone. 00:20:40.520 --> 00:20:43.710 Looks like they have it out on this whole roof. 00:20:43.710 --> 00:20:48.400 Maybe I'm not going to show you. 00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:56.910 Here's one. See this deal here. 00:20:56.910 --> 00:21:00.220 Not exactly sure what you call it exactly. 00:21:00.220 --> 00:21:04.000 Maybe someone else can tell me. 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:07.090 And exactly how it works I am not sure whether I think it has just like a 00:21:07.090 --> 00:21:09.730 suck what 00:21:09.730 --> 00:21:13.090 cut the flow, if something is wrong. If something is wrong in the 00:21:13.090 --> 00:21:14.350 system. 00:21:14.350 --> 00:21:17.410 Something a little more for me to learn about. 00:21:17.410 --> 00:21:20.870 There is always more. 00:21:20.870 --> 00:21:27.870 Anyway back to our unit going there. 00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:35.900 You can see this service mats. 00:21:35.900 --> 00:21:36.989 You always want to do yours 00:21:36.989 --> 00:21:38.770 refrigerant work, 00:21:38.770 --> 00:21:40.600 your air condition works, on the mats. 00:21:40.600 --> 00:21:47.600 Especially if you are a fan car is changing or being in a new unit. You do not want to put any pieces into the built-in roofing material. In any case, it is colder. Haven't been there yet. 00:22:43.460 --> 00:22:45.790 Disconnect box is there. 00:22:45.790 --> 00:22:47.480 Kind of funny story I've heard from a few places 00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:52.810 where the disconnect 00:22:52.810 --> 00:22:57.580 they stole people from all the units. They steal air conditioning units. 00:22:57.580 --> 00:23:01.360 Some rougher areas 00:23:01.360 --> 00:23:03.400 some drastic methods, but anyway. 00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:05.670 I heard about where they were, what they were doing 00:23:05.670 --> 00:23:10.660 they were bypassing the disconnnect 00:23:10.660 --> 00:23:11.890 so if you like 00:23:11.890 --> 00:23:16.610 turn off power to work on the unit you want to go to the unit itself and 00:23:16.610 --> 00:23:19.350 turn off the offender. 00:23:19.350 --> 00:23:21.520 It's kind of like an electric fence 00:23:21.520 --> 00:23:24.740 I was thinking about it is kinda like with an electric fence 00:23:24.740 --> 00:23:30.289 a detergent for people stealing units, stealing refrigerant, and 00:23:30.289 --> 00:23:32.090 steal the entire units. 00:23:32.090 --> 00:23:34.010 and by the power where you cannot 00:23:34.010 --> 00:23:37.840 disconnect it 00:23:37.840 --> 00:23:42.220 they were less likely to take those 00:23:42.220 --> 00:23:45.940 and they have the steal of the couple and all that kind of stuff too 00:23:45.940 --> 00:23:48.270 There are some rougher areas out there that call for some 00:23:48.270 --> 00:23:49.890 drastic measures 00:23:49.890 --> 00:23:53.190 not the norm 00:23:53.190 --> 00:23:55.040 but in those situations 00:23:55.040 --> 00:23:56.740 people have to get creative. 00:23:56.740 --> 00:23:59.080 Do something else if there is a 00:23:59.080 --> 00:24:06.080 rough area. Well it is getting nice and cold right now. Still a little ways. Maybe a little more water on the compressor here. To try and speed it up. 00:24:42.750 --> 00:24:47.360 I can feel it flash a lot, you know, after I put the water on. 00:24:47.360 --> 00:24:49.890 And if I feel it here. At the unit it is just that 00:24:49.890 --> 00:24:56.890 looks like all of a sudden it draws a lot more refrigerant. 00:25:07.850 --> 00:25:14.850 It is now starting to flash nicely and cold. We're almost there. 00:25:24.540 --> 00:25:29.920 Now I don't know if you can see it so much in camera, but you can start to see 00:25:29.920 --> 00:25:33.070 a bit of sweat 00:25:33.070 --> 00:25:40.070 on the line. 00:25:49.250 --> 00:25:51.940 If this gets colder. Not quite there, but we're really close. This is the small high side line to the compressor. 00:25:51.940 --> 00:25:54.590 What you want to avoid 00:25:54.590 --> 00:25:56.330 touch that especially at the end. 00:25:56.330 --> 00:25:57.510 I mean here 00:25:57.510 --> 00:26:00.049 this part of it is not that hot. 00:26:00.049 --> 00:26:07.049 But it is very hot. I have burned my arm many times by accident. Touch that aghhh tshhh. Seems like not the best soldering work off there, but no problem the worst I've seen. 00:26:27.080 --> 00:26:30.700 This kind of looks like a newer compressor to keep it from being the original 00:26:30.700 --> 00:26:37.700 compressor. I'm just guessing. Like it was replaced at some point. Augh yes we get nice and cold. 00:26:49.530 --> 00:26:56.530 Chilly, Chilli. 00:27:22.580 --> 00:27:29.580 The final test will again be checking for the 15-20 degree split inside. 00:27:32.630 --> 00:27:37.220 But that's going to happen. I've done enough to know about this 00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:44.220 the way it is. Was good now. Nice and cold. 00:28:13.150 --> 00:28:20.150 Can't trust my gauges. They are just too old. I need to get some new meter heads. See how it does 00:28:24.980 --> 00:28:26.900 25 00:28:26.900 --> 00:28:30.080 on the green dial. 00:28:30.080 --> 00:28:37.080 Fifty on the print. Pretty cool today. Man, what a difference it makes. I think it's supposed to be like a peak of 81 today, 85, I'm not so sure, but it's nice now. Probably about seventy six degrees outside. If feeling good. Good day. 00:29:47.940 --> 00:29:54.940 Ok, we're there now. Nice and cold. So I'm going to go ahead and turn down the line here. And if the line to shut down. Listen for any leaks there. And everything is OK. And if 00:30:11.200 --> 00:30:14.179 make sure we put our Schrader valve cap back on. 00:30:14.179 --> 00:30:21.179 It's like keeping our second port of refrigerant in the system. I like to do them 1/4 turn past tight with my tongs. Not too crazy, just crazy enough. So there we go. 00:30:31.370 --> 00:30:36.030 We're good there. Come on over here, 00:30:36.030 --> 00:30:42.690 and turn off our coolant can. 00:30:42.690 --> 00:30:46.860 Disconnect our hoses. 00:30:49.790 --> 00:30:51.610 If we release the refrigerant 00:30:51.610 --> 00:30:53.370 of the line. We do not want it too late 00:30:53.370 --> 00:30:57.080 which is stored there. Unless I'm going to go and ask another unit right away what I am 00:30:57.080 --> 00:30:57.940 no. 00:30:57.940 --> 00:31:04.940 So I'm just going to go ahead and release it. There we go, and now she's out. That one too. The middle one. 00:31:08.290 --> 00:31:10.759 Like I said as we got the high side hooked up when we did 00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:13.450 to release it what you would 00:31:13.450 --> 00:31:14.710 just see it Shhh 00:31:14.710 --> 00:31:20.000 spraying out like a white mist coming out 00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:21.450 a lot more refrigerant gets trapped 00:31:21.450 --> 00:31:22.990 in that line. 00:31:22.990 --> 00:31:26.090 And that's kind of the benefit only in connecting on the high end (I mean low end). 00:31:26.090 --> 00:31:31.520 really the more accurate method is to hook on the high end, but anyway. 00:31:31.520 --> 00:31:37.490 We're good here. Alright. 00:31:37.490 --> 00:31:40.179 Write so you can get some of the 00:31:40.179 --> 00:31:43.100 be the first to get some of the new videos when i 00:31:43.100 --> 00:31:45.050 put up new videos. 00:31:45.050 --> 00:31:46.950 I will try to make some more good videos for you. 00:31:46.950 --> 00:31:49.400 I see you out there. 00:31:49.400 --> 00:31:53.140 Ok so here it is inside the unit. It has already dropped to 00:31:53.140 --> 00:31:54.560 75 00:31:54.560 --> 00:31:57.630 I think it starts at 78 79. 00:31:57.630 --> 00:32:04.030 Something like that. 00:32:04.030 --> 00:32:11.030 And the air feels nice and cool coming out of the vent. Let's go back here to 00:32:13.570 --> 00:32:19.799 where the evaporator. The air handler right here. 00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:25.100 And just as on the roof, the low side should be nice and cold all the way to the right here. 00:32:25.100 --> 00:32:26.860 And it is. Nice and cold. 00:32:26.860 --> 00:32:33.860 You can see it. You can kind of see it start to sweat. You can see on my finger. For a second 00:32:35.159 --> 00:32:37.520 how it's like moisture. 00:32:37.520 --> 00:32:40.370 So that's why we have the isolation here. 00:32:40.370 --> 00:32:47.370 So oh it's pretty and chilly.Perfect it sees the moisture on my finger there. There we go. We have drained our condenstae. The drain is waiting 00:32:51.150 --> 00:32:58.150 Alright here. Good old groove connection supply lines. 00:32:58.940 --> 00:32:59.190 Good to go.
