Refrigerant Charging and Service Procedures for Air Conditioning

Very detailed and easy to understand. I enjoy it because me something to refer her back to because my memory is not the greatest. Thank you for a great Friday.

This is a great book. I am new to HVAC but as I am reading and learning I feel as if I have been doing HVAC a lot longer. The teachings is simple and not a lot of technical jargon. Simple to the point. I have not even gotten through halfway of the book but have learned so much. What is even better is that there is a YouTube that they have that helps make the learning more effective. I just received a email from them telling me that they have a second edition on the new refrigerants which I will be purchasing as soon as I complete the first one.

Best book I’ve found for charging, servicing and checking units! Very detailed and well illustrated.

Love this book. I’m in HVAC School and this is really clear and is helping me so much with everything we are doing in class tremendously. Pics and descriptions are clear. There’s a bit of a catch 22 I’m learning as people in the field don’t actually do these “best practices,” and if you’re boss has been doing it 30 years and does stuff wrong, you can’t tell them they are wrong. My friends in the field seem to think class and books like this are pointless, which has me scratching my head.On a different note, there is nothing electrical here. I think it would be amazing if he came out with an HVAC electrical diagnostic equivalent because all the electrical books out there are just as bad as all the HVAC tech books that are 5000 pages and written in technical jargon. I have one electrical PDF book that got great reviews, but it’s 1000 pages and is getting way too much into the physics of it all... come on. I just got my electrical certification and I want to know how to repair an AC system, not master PHD electronics. The straight approach is great in this book. I think he could do something similar in electrical. I’d be the first to buy it.And great utube videos as well, which is of course presumably how his audience knows about this book. The videos are a good overview, the book solidifying the details. You can do the same with the electrical side Craig! :D Damn finding low voltage shorts and jumpers etc still confuse me.

Well done information book

A bit pricey, but it seems to be well written, well organized, and thorough. The color computer generated illustrations are a little hokey, but probably better for learning from than the grainy black and white photos in other books I’ve seen. The spiral binding is helpful for making it lay flat at any page, which can make it more comfortable and convenient.

The best explanation book I have ever seen. It's thorough, but clearly written with accompanying pictures. It has greatly improved my understanding of the principles of Refrigeration and Air Conditioning. It also greatly improved my understanding of the "how tos"! - If you were to go through this book first, you would be a giant step ahead of others in HVAC classes/training. I highly recommend!! Joe

The author has a knack for explaining this relatively complicated subject. I feel like I finally understand superheat and subcool and why they are important to the refrigerant charge. The book is expensive but it's cheaper than taking a course at the local college to learn the right way to service refrigeration equipment.
