What is included in the kit?

The kit includes a thick rubber hose with dual gauge, a BPV31 bullet piercing tap valve, a self-sealing adapter, and matching seals.

Can I use this with R12 or R22 systems?

The gauge reads R12 and R22 pressures, but the kit is designed for R134A refrigerant transfer. Using it with other refrigerants may require different fittings.

Does it work on home AC systems?

Yes, it is intended for both car and home AC systems that use R134A. The tap fits 1/4-inch and 5/16-inch pipes common on home units.

Do I need a vacuum pump?

No, this kit is for adding refrigerant, not for evacuating the system. A vacuum pump is separate and not included.

How do I connect the can?

Use the 1/2-inch ACME adapter to connect a standard self-sealing can to the hose, then attach the tap to the service port.

About the R134A Refrigerant Recharge Kit for Home AC Cooling

This is a 3-piece R134A recharge kit for car and home AC systems. It includes a dual gauge hose, a piercing tap, and a self-sealing nozzle. It is meant for DIY users and garage techs who are checking low-charge warnings or weak blower output without a full manifold set.

The dual dial gauge reads R134A, R12, and R22 pressure levels. A built-in safety valve stops accidental gas release during service. The BPV 31 tap valve is zinc alloy and fits quarter-inch and five-sixteenths-inch pipes. One-half-inch ACME adapters connect directly to standard cans.

The kit uses a thick rubber hose with solid brass connectors. Heavy-duty braided hoses are built to handle engine bay heat, and the connectors stay locked under road vibration.
