DIYers: How we MacGyver a refrigerant recovery machine using using an old window unit

shop.airspool.... Got a leak in your mini-split, car air conditioning system, or your whole-house system? Or are you demoing it out and want to keep the refrigerant? You'll need a refrigerant recovery machine for this.

any problem with using a helium talk for r410a? only ask cause they're pretty common and very similar

[@airspool]

Ha! I'd stick with the noble gases.

@@airspool I mean just using the empty tank; guess could probably try vacuuming it a bit to make sure all the helium is out:)

Excellent! Now turn a recovery machine into a window ac unit😂
