I have been ripped off by the ac techs here many times over and its just hopeless now - a brand new split unit A/C doesn't work for any more than 3 or 4 years.. while the old window ACs still keep running strong..anyways
I have a 1.5 tonne, made in Pakistan AC lying around with a bad compressor and I intend to revive it.
I have quite a lot of options with the compressors such as the good stuff from Bristol compressors and the likes. I want to know what else do I need except the manifold gauges and a vacuum pump for the service job plus I would like to add driers to the system - but don't know how or at what points exactly I can add them.. I do have the basic tools, spanners and sockets etc.
Also if someone can explain the procedure to vacuum the ac system along with the basic concepts that would be very helpful.. I am reading some refrigeration books at the moment but some things just go over me.. so a nice and simple explanation would probably help me learn better and quicker :)
thanks in advance
regards
