How to get your copper bend spot on every time! 

New subscriber here, I just love it when someone takes pride in what they do and that makes it not only look better,but says a lot about you as a tech!! Keep them coming

Damn thanks for the tips. Lineset looks gorgeous

But this is an excellent video and I appreciate you explaining this! That’s one thing I suck at is bending copper to the right spot!

Great work. FYI There are lines on the fitting that hold the pipe indicating where the bend goes.

Beautiful work I'm in school for the trade and this is the standard of work I seek to offer

Great tips haven’t done residential work in a good minute . Good Job Jeff 👏🏼

Awesome mind blowing installations everytime

Dude you’re way too professional! Thanks for the tech tip of the day!

Good rule of thumb on the benders ! Appreciate that point of view

Very nice layout, looks great.

Thanks bro will make my job easier

Awesome job! Super clean install!

We also insulate back suction & liquid lines as our A/C units are reverse cycle and very rarely have a furnace hooked up in line with an A/C unit. Nice pipework mate, the ratchet tube benders are a game changer .

work of art !!!!

Golly way easier than me trying to keep the condenser in place the whole time!

Nice clean job, you make it look so easy

Thanks Jeff! Great job 👍

Nice piping work. Clean and looks good

Looks really good and well explained 👏

Thanks for the video, this was very informative. 👍

Appreciate your work man thank you for this

Good video and great tips on marking bend for copper pipes! 👍🏼

Well done!

Nice explanation

Magnificent job!

Thanks bro for the video 💪 been following you for a while now always learning from your videos 💯

Supper clean work!

Good video man.great job

Nice thanks for that ima try it out

Nice trick, will be trying this next time. Any tricks for doing this with a unit on brackets?

Great information

Awesome trick!

very good video

Here we go!!!! This is gold!!

That does look nice

I don’t use press fittings. I braze fittings on.

Great technique ❤

I think the 3/8 looks better hand bent to the same radius as the suction line. Still looks better than the hackers I see daily though

Skills!

Thanks!

I started doing something similar to try and nail the service valves that come out at a 45.

Thank you sir

thank you!

Is that three-quarter soft copper? Also, doesn’t this change depending upon the tool brand that you have?

Thanks

No filter 😂

I like to clean the pipe before cutting

Why is the brand of you pressing tool and what’s you leak ratio? Also the brand of your first bender? Thanks…

Sweet

Did you put the drier inside?

That looked sweet. How long have you been using press fittings? Any issues?

You didn't install a filter/drier, and I wouldn't trust that press fitting for refrigerant. Those lines are going to vibrate a lot. The HOMEOWNERS are going to have to PAY SOMEONE ELSE to come and weld the leaks that you just insured WILL HAPPEN. They LOOK nice, they are FAST, they are cost effective for YOU. But they WILL cost the homeowners in the future.

Is the new unit a trane xr condenser?

Man everything was great until you ripped the armaflex with your bare hands lol (homer simpsons “doh!”).. a knife my guy. Other than that great work 👍🏼

Hope this didn’t get brazed without the drier

🤟💯🌎

You guys are running rogue with these press fittings, our company has been replacing them whenever we come across one. They’re leakers. We’ve made tons of revenue to remove them. I really feel bad for customers.

Why didn’t you use the 3/8” shoe and arm with the hilmor to bend the liquid line? So on the shoe where it’s printed hilmor is when you line it up to make the bends. How you are doing it going by the handle may be pretty close to that. I will pull out mine and check. Great tip on how you mark the pad for lining up the line sets!

You show up to a customers home with that thing in your ears? That’s crazy
