A/C Recharging Method

Push-Button Dispensing

With Measure & Charge (MAC-134) and EZ Charge (SD-134), dispensing refrigerant is as simple as pressing a button. You just connect the hose to the low-pressure port, press the button on the can to fill (to "charge") and release to stop. With Measure & Charge, releasing the button will automatically give you a pressure measurement on the in-line gauge (which is re-usable). Both let you store unused refrigerant for later. Both contain the appropriate proportions of refrigerant and oil, as well as System-Safe leak sealer. See full instructions on this site or on the can.

Trigger Dispensing

With the Quick Charge charging gun (QC-1CS and QCK-2CS), you simply connect the hose to the low-pressure port, screw a can of refrigerant into the Quick Charge, squeeze the trigger to dispense and release to stop. Quick Charge will automatically give you a pressure reading on the built-in gauge. Quick Charge is completely re-usable. See full instructions on this site or on the package.



Direct Charge Dispensing

With High Mileage Top-Off (HMT-1DC), you simply press the direct charge fitting onto the low-pressure port to fill 6oz. of refrigerant & oil (in the proper proportion). Great when all you need is a small amount of refrigerant to top off your system. We recommend using our EZ Gauge (GEZ-1) to measure pressure before and after charging to ensure proper pressure for peak cooling. See full instructions on this site or on the can.

Screw-in Can Tap Dispensing

Several of our recharging kits use the traditional method of dispensing, tapping a can. These kits are models RKR-7, RKR-5, RGM-134, GBM-134, and MB-134. This method involves screwing a can tap with hose onto a can of refrigerant, partly unscrewing to dispense, and screwing in again to stop. With the RKR-7, RGM-134 and GBM-134, you can check pressure with the in-line gauge. The RKR-7 and RKR-5 can be used in two ways: to either retrofit (convert) an A/C system using R-12 refrigerant to a system that can use R-134a refrigerant, or to recharge a system that already uses R-134a. See full instructions on this site or on the package.
