HVAC Buddy®
If you are servicing equipment the best way to begin diagnosis and determine the proper refrigerant charge is to use HVAC Buddy®, a set of gauges, and a thermometer.
If the early outdoor temperature is 75F and you charge the system to a “beer can cold” suction line your system is likely improperly charged. Later in the afternoon high temperatures will increase head pressure and the resulting overcharge means a lower than desired superheat and wasted energy. Not good!

Overall Process:
  1. Enter refrigerant, temps, and pressures
  2. The math is done for you; superheat calculations, subcooling calculations, and airflow calculations all display Target, Actual, and Difference
  3. Repeat steps 1-2 until all HVAC Diagnostics check out as "Okay"; send system status report VIA text message or email as needed
  4. Sync customer units and customer diagnostics to the cloud with FLEETGRID
