    Typical residential a/c units will have a 18-20° split. Split = difference in return and supply air as measured at the airhandler. Higher temps and relative humidity being drawn in will effect the supply temp. Higher humidity will diminish the sensible btu output (actually drop temp.) and use...

    DIY Mini Split A/C Install Help Thread

    Yes HG23 is right stay away from sealants. Generally if they are used its for a system that is on its last leg. The key to compression fittings is to keep your connections square and no tension. I use a little vacuum pump oil on the male fittings and tighten snug and add 1/16 turn. Don't over...

    My journey to the MPB Universe!

    My journey to the MPB Universe!

    Nitrogen won't be necessary if you are leak free, so hopefully you won't need it. If you have vacuum pump oil it helps to put a small amout on the threads of your fittings before tightening. On any set of gauges your looking at the blue gauge you will be looking at 0. Below 0 is inches in...

With 410a it is critical to have a dry system before releasing pressure.The oil is hydroscopic and moisture is...

    question about light fan size

    Inline axial fans can not overcome the static pressure, such as long duct runs bends etc. your light hood also adds static to the equation. Vortex does good with static that is why its good for filter lights etc.:rauch08:
