Recovering refrigerant from an AC system is an essential part of a service technician’s job. That’s why refrigerant recovery systems are essential HVAC tools. These systems must meet multiple necessary, but often conflicting requirements:

The summer season is in full swing and refrigerant recovery is the name of the game. Bacharach is no slouch in this category and the ECO-2020 Refrigerant Recovery Machine is the proof in the pudding as it were. This unit boats a powerful 1 HP 2-cylinder oil-less compressor that gives it quiet running performance. As with most recovery machines today, this unit is compatible with all category III, IV and V refrigerants and can also be used for R410a liquid and vapor.

Lots of changes have made their way into the HVAC Industry with the latest being the shrinking size of the recovery machine. Yellow Jacket has released their own version with the Yellow Jacket 95730 YJ-LTE Refrigerant Recovery Machine. This unit is hailed by Yellow Jacket as the smallest, lightest, and most powerful unit in its class.
