 This video is brought to you in part by TrueTech Tools quality tools essential support What's going on everybody's heading down to AHR 2023 heading to the airport currently? So I've never been to AHR before and if you don't know what it is It's one of the largest conventions for heating air conditioning refrigeration in the world So we're gonna be documenting this thing as we go I know I've done once when I went to the Florida trip last year never made nothing with it Which I might eventually do some people just don't care So they don't ever watch it, but we're gonna go ahead and get started All right, so we're at the first stop here, which is my sister's house drop the truck here. We hop on the plane So I've never been to Columbus's airport before Pretty nice airport, but when you don't really know where you're going it don't help well Everybody knows how much fun it is going through security Now we're in Washington DC better known as Sin City and House of Lies living dreams man living dreams Made me put my bag on the carousel death Ran out of room on the plane I guess for our bags. This is gonna get good Finally got off at Atlanta now now we got to go find our luggage because they didn't have a room for it on the plane That was fun. That's why I never check baggage. Yeah, not used to this We're from tiny little towns where we're from been to New York, but Where the hell am I going? He said go up the escalator We're just walking and walking and walking should be there shortly. Hopefully yeah, we're getting close. I think I can smell it So we dressed up a little bit, I don't know I found it found it in the subway somebody just left it laying there I figured why not heading over to the HVAC tactical awards You looking dog Hey, how are you good? Had him on my live off time All right, so we got our badge here The lighting is a little bit dim in here, so probably not gonna be able to see a whole lot but Just got to meet the guys from Sotterwell got a picture taken with them and we got our meet and greet here Which is what we're doing right now got the bar over here in our corner It's definitely elegant looking very nice very very nice. We are now in the main area guys this thing is Wow, I mean look at this I mean seven and nine. I mean, you know, they should be normally close No Counting must have been an extra Stage Right, so we're on the bus and they're gonna shuttle us over there, which is pretty nice because Getting a uber or whatever around here is not gonna be very easy It's definitely a little busy in here, but hey, that's cool See if you can find anything interesting it doesn't open till 10 although Got the press badge here. I could get in a little sooner Not sure it's that big of a deal That's what I got in here Got in here a little sooner After all just walked right in so this is gonna make it really cool to kind of look around because it's gonna get stupid in here No real idea exactly where anything's out. I didn't look at I just kind of want to figure it out as we go The bands I got over here. This is pretty cool Grave looking We're gonna have anything quite like this Over and see if I can find the injured Reeves see if he's over here and say hi to him He might with his pretty interesting There's my vacuum pump boy that is quite a difference in size in it. You can also see how slow this is Oh, yeah, this right now. I have baseline guys have been doing it this way for years and years You've been hooked up in a very traditional manner. It's about equivalent to 90 feet of So what that would do we go into your second layer and then it would basically blow through all the little holes So what we were talking about because a lot of people talk about the hoses that are made for charging They have little perforated holes in them So he's telling me that basically we have a solid Connection on the inside of the hose whereas the outside just have safety factor for people that would use it misuse the hose Is that right while you're doing it people don't pay attention hooked up to nitrogen charge and that way We don't get somebody gets hurt. Yeah, you can see it just a little bit Little bit big so many different people here that I've never seen before at all. Oh boy Here's a crane guy. So we're here with one of the other ladder crane guys But he's actually doing something with it and actually manufacturing it this thing is really light weight I was worried that this thing because if you look at this It looks like it's thick wall now granted it's thick enough to hold the weight But with one hand you're able to hold it and the cable here. They've got it Coating there so you're not going to get one of those little prongs in your finger and get all cut up there I mean look at these well again. The one here. They are if you guys are interested in checking them out. There you go We're not trying to tube so here's yellow jacket We're here yellow jacket he's shown us the R290 hydrocarbon Weight scale and stuff what we got here. So what makes this thing special over some of the other ones that are out there All these products are individually box and it comes in a universal kit for you guys Everything you need in this box the key features to our product is the quality of the tools So you're able to put a different adapter for different different containers That's the thing I run into is different hoses. So you made it universal. Yeah, this is just regular old quarter-inch hose Yeah, but your adapter in there and then they can hold all the different box different bottles So it doesn't matter who the manufacturer is yellow jacket style with the American made all this still made in America I'll still made in America. Yeah, sweet. You guys know yellow jacket been around for years All right, guys. So now we're here at the spoiling booth and that's what we ran into So we've got Chris and all the hot shots from the refrigeration Wessel and Kevin compass dance refrigeration podcast guys if you want to get more advanced you gotta be listening to these guys Kevin's a little shy over there Everybody it's route the originator of the YouTube channels here a HR Hey guys, what are you doing? We got Mike B. That's always in my comment section right here with me at a HR Giving him a hard time. Hey at least he talks to me. So that's right. Cool. Thanks for coming to say hi to me So here is my winner of the gift card Alexander. So yeah, just wanted to say hi to him real quick Yeah, you can be a happy person as an award for everything that you've done And it means the world to me and that's why I'm giving you this little plastic thing worth is a plastic trophy. Just You're getting old by now. All right, here we are in the veto booth look at all the veto stuff here This is crazy. Oh, they've got some new stuff here. I noticed I haven't seen this before. This is kind of different Yes, definitely sweet setup Hey guys, it's Roger here the dinner of the veto pro pack veto everything. This is mr. Vito I'm here with Rick meet and Rick for the first time it's awesome that he stopped into the booths and thanks so much We're stopping at the end. No problem All right, so there's just a shit ton of things to look at stuff I've never even heard of coil manufacturers. You never heard of see what clients got This is a UK product so they replace the gas with them So it takes about We takes about two or three minutes to freeze a pipe up Mainly for when you have Coastal environments where you have so you drink a plant. Yes. Well get over. Yeah, you got geckos You got salt laden air. You got high moisture. I've seen these things. I've seen compressors fall out Then we became the most energy efficient water source heat pump system And this is kind of a grow room system that has a water source heat pump You have the pack with heat exchangers inside here play heat exchanger. So that's good for energy transfer Yep, that's the way we like to kind of keep it simple I'll have an inverted board. It's a thousand two thousand dollars. It's going to go bad You've been around the rodeo. Yeah Carrier, good figure, right? All right, check out this chiller here from Dan Foss. This thing's pretty crazy These are the kind of hotels the big shots stay at Yesterday it was quite busy a lot of things is going on by time you got done You could have used a wheelchair to get out of here because your feet were ready to fall off better figure out Where you want to go because you're probably not going to see it. Hey, Ben. Hey, look at that. Got it Got it on it's gonna be covered up by my shirt down there my sweatshirt because that's basically my jacket good weather We've been really lucky. That's what I would love to build for a training. That would be so awesome So look who I found out the godfather of HVAC here mr. reefer guy. Oh the Godfather Godfather. Yeah I thought the God idiot Whatever closer. Hey, huh? It's still him though. It's still me So he's saying you can do this with hard pipe rigid without annealing it Unbelievable no wrinkles at all on that. Look at that perfect perfect Take off the plastic and just tighten it. That's it. Yeah, that's it. Really now. Can you unhook it put it back together? Oh That's not a comment one time you know what I mean. So now we're at the Remy Halo booth This is one that I actually have in my house They've got the LED one over here and a few of the other scrubber packages It's me trapped there Oh, that was fabulous was it what I expected to be doing oh Boy Not too bad. I was kind of always wondering how powerful this thing was that one is 125 years side With the actual, you know volume going through the coil. That's why I was wondering it's better than nothing But obviously as good as a garden. Yeah, we also have this one She's a little bit like you can bend it. Okay, and you can go And just clean the inside out. You don't have to take everything off because the wheels was always nasty And that thing is for that we have like a UV light over there. This one's pretty good because this one is reusable. Okay You can probably use it like It's really you actually maintain it pretty well, but you clean them up and then you just put it back in the pocket Feels like thick stuff I don't think I've seen many that go all the way over the top like that either this is crime you okay All right, when you hit that button the timer is going to start what you're gonna do You're gonna hit that button to start your timer you're gonna drill in the first three screws Flip the bit over to the other side drill in the other three screws, and then hit the button again. Stop the time Detect the all the way down to like my lekkered lungs Very high-end what this will do. We'll actually take a 3D scan of The points where it needs to leak check because all the coppers can bet a little bit difference So that's pulled into the arm of it So he's looking and he actually knows where to go then based on preseason. There's a scan right over here So there's a scan And then basically it determines me software where the various points are critical points of where it needs to leak check Wow, and it's they don't have to have it perfectly aligned up for me It just it lays in front of it. It looks at it and takes exactly takes a scan and then it determines where exactly The critical points there needs to be checked So a lot of people that use healing it's just actually searching for you know No, so it's it's it can search for helium It's search for hydrogen lightweight gas lightweight gas is gonna be better because it's gonna it's gonna be more sensitive Helium smaller molecule right now. Okay. Exactly. Yeah, and then they can find the leaks faster And then are they just pull the healing back out and reuse it because I know it's a very limited gas Yeah, all right guys So we're at the JB booth now you guys know I've kind of taken a liking to a lot of the JB stuff So I noticed we have a propane scale here That I'm gonna see if I can't get my hands on to and try out to see how that thing works It doesn't post on some of the different hoses that they have Which they've got some here that have a long extensions They got the ones that screw on the end which I don't really like and then they got those there I don't see the ones that I just recently got which are on the very end and their ball bow style Haven't seen too many people using that thing either so we get the three eighths or three eighths by half So it's kind of interesting here is one of the tools that I use for brazing Upkeep the carbon and stuff out of the what I'm saying are doing a pipe. That's not in the system It just fits right into the Other end of the pipe you just took your nitrogen right up to it perched through it. We took it kind of nice So the flux is on the inside core there on the inside core. Yes So we only one rod does both copper and the aluminum both. Yes, and How does it do if like say we need to do repair right here on this because that's where I have a problem with That's the hard stuff this stuff out here is really easy to do It's like so say we had to do a repair on this What do you what do you do if you have on it on the cross section there? Do you just kill it here? Do you cut it? Where do you do it at? No? That's a big fallacy. So if the repairs on the outside edge or anywhere you can get at Basically get the clear the area out clean it apply the alloy people will say well What if we plug that one opening well if you do you still have Yeah, I've been told you just sacrifice the whole rule. There's no need to know we're in the worst means Ever you have you've ever seen that. Yeah. Yeah, I've got to cut apart I've got chunks of coils that we've done work you on and I've taken a home and tried doing like something on this Sandless steel wire brushes your best option. Okay now no matter where of the location is There's a fin out of the way that used to expose the area that you want to eat What kind of fuel are you with oxy acetylene? Okay? The key with this is just to Use the end of the sling really okay, and it's reducing volume. Yeah What you're gonna do is just use the tip of the sling You also have to approach it where the alloy will only hit the surface with tip Okay, we need to activate the flux all right never lay it like that So basically what we're gonna do is we're gonna heat And then we'll want to do is tap it so we can get our field don't set it in the flame because the flame will very easily melt Sure, you want to the base product of melting when you're getting close right there? Yep. Yep. Can you get it to lay down nice and pretty or you don't really go too crazy? Did you find that pretty? Any bad, I mean look at it. I know I'm a OCD kind of guy. Well, so am I yeah overly, but it's only so much You can do when it comes to a little exactly. Yeah, it's designed to move air conditioning units across rooftops There's actually nothing that extends underneath so you roll it right over your curve and set it down Got some mini compressors here today in America we are at Kentucky For a Little capillary tube Variable speed on it. Yeah, it's running almost just at this lowest speed trying to move in the air through the cold All right So as you can see here, it's all based on frequency range. Yeah, there are sensors that are built into it And actually down here below you can kind of see where some of the big noise is happening So if we come down here, we're getting a lot of blur You can see it bouncing around and everything like that But once we start cleaning that up and getting it out You kind of see so he's actually look he's blowing into that and you can see he's got something going on there So it's picking up that frequency picking up the noise Now can you hear it too? No, you're only seeing it. There's a lot of things you got to decipher it with your ears Yeah, well, and what's great with this is you can actually look from a distance and see something all the way up there and pin it out We are trying to get some of this stuff packed in here so we can send it back because there's no room I am so overpacked full of stuff. It's ridiculous So I've got all these little bags and stuff. We can't ship a screwdriver And those are probably a boiler lines. I bet you anything Yeah, steam that's crazy It's a multi mile deep You guys don't have no subways there you guys be under the ocean and then in Puerto Rico. Yeah metro area You don't have a necessity You can choose to more than 80 types refrigerant types Pressure hold evacuation. You can record all the information. So we got here is a how old is this device? How long has it been out? 18 years and going well so what we're doing here is we're basically upgrading a motor that doesn't you know Isn't compliant for a bfd. So what they're showing here is on the oscilloscope is the interference But when we do the grounding through their device that they've made here, what do we do to our oscilloscope? We've gotten rid of all the spikes and noise. It's in the lines So this is the company might want to consider checking them out if you got motors people can't afford to upgrade This might be an alternative for them. Thank you, sir This might just be the biggest thing and I've seen look at this thing literally It's taller than me. Hey It's fantastic Kind of cool. We're here on the final day Kind of winding down. It's been overwhelming Crazy crazy crazy. Okay, so we're checking out Cresset here. Well, there's a huge difference between these and pressure here We're gonna do it for yeah, and cut and cut it inside. Yeah, we're gonna take some ice face off Okay, and then try Milwaukee Okay These are yours Man So difference being that's actually a laser welded ribbon is that what it is? We're sharper Yeah, what we do is we bring that polkrum up as high as possible Close to that cutting edge to make it truly high leverage You see that there's barely a gap there I've heard of me getting a closer. Holy cow. Keep it close So then also try to keep it as small as possible really the diameter makes a difference You can almost tell just by looking at a pair of pliers here in Milwaukee. They're down low Bigger full from I like Milwaukee, but not all their tools are good. The strippers. I didn't like 30% more leverage by having that Oh my it is just like stupid now these bigger ones like that too So the entire z2 line and in addition to that a lot of competitors are doing induction hard It's laser What kind of nail is this it ain't like super straight. No, they're finished But you could tell the difference that was to cut. Yeah, I had it like you're I've waiting for you laugh at me I mean I and you can tell the cut difference how hard it's flinging it The hardest one is the nippings the laser cut edges are tempered hardened and So it lasts longer that edge lasts longer because your house of warranty and stuff I mean they all claim lifetime, but usually it's a bear to get it Well, you you can walk into any distributor and with a broken one, and they'll just hand you We'll give you no crap We've received at how long you had it you abuse the tool like Klein does and everything else home people especially on this line This is our pride and she would apply our line really lines minutes like see that's that's got your crimper fish tape puller And check the fulcrum on this one how small this is you can only get that high with that laser Well, we'll be able to zoom in on me and 4k right here. So These are my hammers so I mean Okay There's two fingers and I got to go three fingers that still wasn't bad so we go regular no problem there Unless electricians are gonna use these Just as easy if not easier look at this monster thing here this thing is stupid big just literally That is a big flippin burner cast-iron Trolls look at that freaking monster We got receivers here and accumulators Bringing it in So you've got hot gas coming through here to boil it off. This is through an accumulator obviously And it comes into here. It's gonna boil off the liquid down here. It's gonna pull the suction up through here They're gonna put hot gas in here to boil it off discharge discharge gas coming through here. We got the accumulator or yeah the accumulator This one comes Probably pulling that out. Oh look at they basically put a tube and tube design And so they're bringing it right off the very very top so they can make it more compact and the inlet just shoots straight in there Just a little oil separator. Is that what this is a oil separator? Yes, sir Don't they usually spin it and stuff? Yeah, these are non helical and non coal assay That is an adjustable muffler You can tune it while the system's running You just crank it down you take this off and there's a little stem in there And you can just change that a little bit and I'll change the harmonics that are going on inside there Yeah, all right guys, so we are back Thursday. This is the day after ahr. I uh ended up Getting back last night, you know, there's so many things to look at that Content is not really there in one particular manner So you've kind of just roll around and look at different things I really didn't have anything to really end it with it was an interesting trip. Hopefully you guys gained a Idea of what it's about guys. I had no idea. Although it was a lot of fun And you got to meet a lot of neat people and networking and things like that which Generally is the biggest thing that you're trying to do You got to see a lot of new products and things like that, but I think two days is plenty for me I think it's really meant more for the suppliers and the Owners and stuff like that to see what they want to sell And you know, I mean because it's just purely a bunch of vendors And then it gives you a chance to meet some of the people behind it for me I really enjoyed talking to mario from emphicon, uh, you know, I've gotten no hem over the years awesome guy If you have any problems with your stuff, obviously go through your counter guy first They're supposed to swap it out if you have any problems with your emphicon stuff You got to see the guys from tree tech tools which are sponsoring the video As always those guys take care of things for you So if you have problems, you don't have to go through hell and back to get some of the information you need The essential support you don't have to call the fact or you find out why this tool or something's not working Right, they'll take care of that and then it'll get you an answer if they don't already have the answer Fires hotels and stuff like that You know, most of them are all fairly close to the area Uh, where you're gonna be at for the most part. I walked about everywhere You're gonna get ganked pretty good on some of the uber stuff They jack the rates up when they get busy food and stuff like that prices for things pretty much about normal What you'd expect for the type of event that it is, you know, that was pretty much about it So I hope you guys enjoyed that video Until next time guys, leave your comments down below and we'll see you on the next one later
