AC Services – Refrigerant

Just as a battery requires electric juice to operate, the refrigerant component of an HVAC system requires literal juice refrigerant liquid and/or gas, depending on the stage of the cooling process to perform properly. When the preset refrigerant level is depleted via leaks, it must be replaced, or performance will quickly degrade. What is refrigerant charging? Refrigerant charging is the process of emptying and refilling the refrigerant component of an HVAC system. When refrigerant levels fall due to leaks or system repairs, the existing refrigerant must be drained and replaced with a new charge. A variety of tools are required to accomplish this; technicians generally either use a bulk refrigerant container or a charging kit, which contains exactly the right amount of gas/liquid for a single charge. Manifold gauge set in either case, a manifold gauge set is required to complete the process of refrigerant charging. This is one of the most important HVAC charging tools, as without it the refrigerant gases could not be transferred to the refrigerant coil. More on this webpage

A manifold gauge set is comprised of two gauges, three hoses, and two valves. Essentially, it creates an airtight channel which then forces the refrigerant gas into the appropriate part of the HVAC system in question. Without this tool, the gases would leak out or be unable to travel efficiently.

Digital thermometers

A digital thermometer is used to check the temperature of HVAC system components while the refrigerant is being charged. Readings acquired via the thermometer are used to calculate superheat and sub-cooling measurements, allowing the HVAC technician to determine exactly how much refrigerant the system requires. Pressure readings from the manifold gauge set also contribute to this reading, so both tools are required for accurate information.

Valve core remover

Valve cores are a bit like a plug, and are used to keep gases from leaking out; HVAC valve cores function similarly to bicycle and car tire manufacturing. A valve core remover is a vital part of the refrigerant charging process, as it allows these cores to be taken out so that gases can flow freely through the valve passages. Valve core removers designed for HVAC systems are usually made of brass instead of traditional steel to prevent damage to the brass access ports.

Digital scales

Digital scales allow for a more accurate weight measurement than traditional mechanical scales. The refrigerant tank is placed upon a scale during the charging process, and an HVAC technician will use the scale reading to determine how much gas has been fed into the HVAC system. As gases do not weigh very much, it is important to have a scale that detects minute changes; a good digital scale will measure changes of as little as 2 grams!

As with any technical profession, an HVAC technician’s toolkit allows him to do his job properly and well. Understanding the purpose of the tools used during refrigerant charging may help homeowners gain a better appreciation of the skills their HVAC technician possesses!

How to check for bed bugs

Have you wanted to know how to check for bed bugs? Most of the time, there is no way of knowing where a bed bug infestation originated or how it was brought into your home. The good news is that bed bugs leave certain signs behind that let us know they were there or are in your home so that you can start the elimination process. To find the signs that bed bugs leave behind, one must know how to check for bed bugs in various places around the home. To do this effectively, one can use specific tools to see a bed bug, such as a magnifying glass, double stick tape, and a putty knife. A flashlight may also be helpful for dark or hard-to-see areas. These tools may sound random, but because bed bugs are so small and like to hide in cracks and crevices, you may not be able to see them with the naked eye. Follow the steps below for different ways on how to check for bed bugs around your home.

The first places you want to check are the beds around your home. To do this, remove all the bed linens and covers from the bed so that only the mattress is showing. Look for reddish-brown stains in a circular pattern on the mattress. These stains are usually found on the box spring or in the crack and crevices of the mattress. If you notice an area like this, take your magnifying glass or double-stick tape to the mattress area and look for bed bugs. You can also check sofas, chairs, and other furniture the exact same way when looking for bed bugs.

Bed bugs are tiny bugs that are white to brown. These bugs are often most noticeable after they feed when they turn a rusty color, much like the color of blood. Bed bugs are no bigger than an apple seed, and knowing how to check for bed bugs effectively and what to look for can help you identify a problem before it gets out of control.

Using a putty knife, you want to look for bed bugs in small cracks and crevices around your home, particularly around window sills and baseboards. Scrape the knife along these cracks and look for dried blood and other signs mentioned above. Knowing how to check for bed bugs and identifying them is very important for removal.

If you notice after checking for bed bugs that you may have an infestation, contact a pest control professional who is capable of handling the problem. You can also take certain steps after the professional has done his job to eliminate the possibility of having bed bugs in your home again. This process is very similar to learning how to check for bed bugs around the home, except that certain steps are taken to eliminate and kill any bed bugs that may be lurking around the home even after the professional has sprayed for the problem.
