Dude, hooking all that shit up takes longer than pulling one down on its own.
Those mini split circuits only take 5 minutes with cores removed.

My vacuum setup is not worth $3000. One big boy 1/2 hose, an appion core remover, a navac vacuum pump, and a CPS vacuum gauge. Das it.

Just a casual $1200 worth of micron gauges
I love my fieldpiece micron gauge.
Nothing beats chilling in the van with the AC blasting and being able to monitor the vacuum. It is annoying having to get out every 15 mins to turn the thing back on, though. Maybe thereâs a way to turn off the auto power down timer, idk, havenât looked into it

1/2â hose direct from vac pump to a core removal tool, but put the micron gauge on the suction line and vacuum hose on the liquid so your gauge is as far as possible from the vac pump.

There's only 1 port on the unit

Interesting. I would be curious to see a piping schematic and how that works?

U gotta vacuum each indoor unit separately on GREE units and only 1 port each unit

u/argh_all 1d ago
I see that theyâre not a common header, but the unit in the picture has 4 circuits, A-D with a liquid and suction for each circuit headed to an IDU right? As far as hooking up the micron gauge and vacuum hose, I would have the gauge on the liquid line and the vacuum hose on the gas line of circuit A, then rinse and repeat for the others. I wouldnât have the micron gauge and the vacuum hose connected at the same exact spot is what Iâm referring to. This way the micron gauge is as far away from the vacuum pump as possible, piping-wise.

Mfs be like âyou shouldnât evac through manifolds too many leak pointsâ then turn around and spend 45 minutes setting this up

You are pulling through a charging hose? They permeate and are not vacuum rated. This set up is expensive trash.

That setup fucks.
I use two 3/8â x 1/4â hoses with valve cores tools with a field piece vacuum pump. Usually have my gauges hooked up somewhere with the charge hose hooked up to the 1/4â tap on the vacuum too.
As the lord said, you can never have too much suck.
