Jim, can you explain a little bit the correlation between the refrigerant and the, uh, HVAC chiller and related equipment?
18:04
equipment?Sure.
18:06
So there's four main components within your basic, uh, refrigeration loop.
18:12
The compressor is the heart of the system.
18:14
The compressor is what moves the refrigerant throughout the loop.
18:18
That's the hum that you hear when you're by a refrigerator.
18:21
Then the refrigerant moves on to the c- uh, condenser.
23:22
Um, a leak detector generally does not give a quantitative measurement but will give us an indication of where the leak is located, but again, it has to be used in conjunction with the Altair or your standard four gas meter that your department uses.
