Prediction before watching: the condensate from gas combustion is acidic. Comment after: Yep, although it is still nice to see a video of how severe it can be as I haven't seen it in person (I'm a first year apprentice in HVAC in Canada) On top of that, PVC is much faster, easier, and cheaper so the only reason I can see someone using copper is if they genuinely weren't aware of this, I feel like I will learn about this in trade school come spring but even on the HVAC side of things like pH and hardness come up more often than I would've expected considering that we're supposed to be worrying about air and humidity.

@ReubenSahlstrom I've read where in some cases regular copper tubing shouldn't be used, because depending on the wall thickness, it may not hold up against hydraulic pressure. The newer copper / nickel alloy tubing seems to be acceptable. Traditionally steel, or better yet stainless steel lines were normally used. Great classic car you have there. Best of lucky 👌

As I can see on the video, the nut on the hoose is not placed axially tight to the hoose and has some kind of freedom. So I'm curios ,can the leakage be reduced even more by holding the hoose's part pressed against the socket with force, while the nut is being unscrewed. And once the nut is done the hoose might be let free really quickly alowing the pressure forses to finish the job.

if you knew what the problem was why did you call tech support? how much gas did you pull out vs put back in? did you pressure test or just soap test your welds? looked just low to me... also your head pressure and txv operation concepts are a little off.

@@nicholastrottier4895 I like to confirm with tech support, and get part numbers. Also had a question for him about recovering the refrigerant, because with these systems it's a four point recovery. I did not have to add any refrigerant to the system as it had the correct charge. Can you please explain what you mean about the head pressure regulator and expansion valve concepts? I'm sure that I didn't explain everything perfect, and am always learning more, or at least trying.

@@ReubenSahlstrom I'm sorry I didn't mean to criticize to heavy. I realize my comment came across that way. The charge question was a legit curiosity. Same with the tech support question. On the front of your concepts, the HPR valve doesn't flow refrigerant , it actually holds back refrigerant to flood the condenser and raise head pressure in the cooler weather. It also acts as a hot gas bypass to provide enough pressure to the liquid receiver to "push" adequate liquid supply to the txv. On the tx front, I'd have to watch your video again for the exact words you used but it doesn't regulate flow as much as it controls superheat. The end result is flow management but its main job is to monitor and compare superheat to evap pressure and maintain it. Again didn't mean to criticize but I think it's important if you're going to put the info out there to ppl who are using your video educationally it's important to provide the correct info.
@ReubenSahlstrom21 күн бұрын
@@nicholastrottier4895 I am not so easily offended, and so appreciate any helpful information in the comments I receive. We often call the expansion valve a regulating device, as it does regulate the flow of refrigerant. You are correct that it uses superheat measurements to accomplish this task, but nothing said there was inaccurate. I hope people don't just watch this single video to learn everything they need to know about refrigeration. Also, the head pressure regulator does the same thing by regulating the flow through the condenser, trying to maintain whatever set pressure and keep refrigerant moving through. Just different ways of explaining the same thing. Thanks!
