I have an R32 unit which is an A2L and the unit itself has normal ( for a minisplit) fittings. It’s the refrigerant tanks and recovery tanks that have reverse threads. Why do you need a gauge set? You probably only need a valve core removal tool for mini splits. I vacuumed my lineset with only...

With Ecobee, it's even more flexible that this. You can have several sensors connected to a thermostat. Their scheduling works where you have pre-defined "comfort settings" and for each setting you can assign which sensors are averaged. For instance, you have 1 in a bedroom and 1 in an office...

Lineset needs to match you coil and condenser. A lot of split system have similar size line set, might be different if you go from a 1.5ton to a 5 ton. This will be in the data sheet for whatever unit you're looking at. You might need a different size if you change refrigerants as well.

You can look for a purge regulator. Some have presets for purging for brazing and for pressure testing. I don’t know if N2 bottle share the came tank fitting but the regulators for nitrogen are fairly inexpensive...

I got Appion for the core removal tool, Hilmor for the flaring, and Yellow Jacket for hoses. There's a few good brands out there. I just picked the cheapest of the quality ones. I looked at eBay a fair bit before purchasing and it's wild out there. Either stuff is totally worn out or it's...

I recently did my mini split, a Daikin R32 Atmophera. I did a lot of reading before buying tools. I wasn't in a rush to get it commissioned so I allowed myself to maybe not have everything ahead of time. This is the list of tools I used: - 5/16" core removal tool (mini split is different from...

Not sure how computer savvy you are but there are a couple projects out there to talk to the furnace on the ABCD bus. Might give you a clue whether you need a new thermostat or not. https://github.com/bvarner/gofinity I had a firmware update kill my WiFi connectivity and found you can...

I'm posting this for the times that they aren't doing the larger sales. They typically list 1 tool at a time and you have to constantly monitor to see if a tool you're interested is coming up. This link lets you see what is in the queue, you still can only buy the first one, but gives you a...

I got one of these for my wife this spring for the annual spring pruning. I was worried it would be too heavy or too slow. She loves it. She was able to prune a massive pile of branches in a weekend. That wouldn't have been possible due to fatigue even with two people. Now she reserves her...
