FAQs
Q1: Should I dedicate a gauge set to a specific refrigerant or clean them between service calls?
A1: We recommend using a dedicated manifold per refrigerant for efficiency. Alternatively, clean and flush your manifolds when switching between refrigerants.
Q2: Do you offer manifold recalibration?
A2: No, manifold calibration is not available. Malco recommends replacing the gauges if recalibration is needed.
Q3: What is unique about MalcoEdge manifolds?
A3: MalcoEdge valves are spring loaded, which helps the seals last longer.
Q4: What refrigerants do MalcoEdge A2L manifolds work with?
A4: MalcoEdge A2L manifolds are compatible with R32, R454B, and R410A.
Q5: Does hose length matter when pulling a vacuum?
A5: Yes. The shorter the hose and the larger the diameter, the more efficiently the vacuum will be pulled.
Q6: Can I use the same hoses with a variety of refrigerants?
A6: MalcoEdge hoses are compatible with popular refrigerants. However, we do not recommend using multiple refrigerants in the same hoses unless you flush them first using a product like ACE Powerflush. To prevent cross-contamination from oils left in the hoses, we recommend dedicating separate hoses to specific refrigerants.
Q7: Do I need to flush and clean my equipment when switching between refrigerants?
A7: Yes. Some refrigerants use different lubricants and cannot be mixed. As a best practice, flush pumps, hoses, manifolds, and other components between services to prevent cross-contamination. We recommend using ACE Powerflush when switching refrigerants.
