Local Freon Recharge

R-134a and R-404A service for Tacoma APU calls

Freon recharge work near Port of Tacoma is handled with refrigerant identification, recovery discipline, vacuum testing, and measured charging so downtime is not repeated.

01

Refrigerant identification

The unit label is checked before service so R-134a, R-404A, or a custom application is not mixed with the wrong cylinder in Tacoma.

02

Recovery and scale setup

Recoverable refrigerant is captured and charging equipment is weighed so the service record reflects what was removed and added. Near Port of Tacoma, this is matched to SR 509 parking and gate conditions.

03

Vacuum hold behavior

A vacuum pull and hold check help expose moisture, air, or a leak before the truck returns to Port of Tacoma freight movement.

04

Cooling verification

Vent temperature, compressor cycling, suction behavior, discharge behavior, and condenser airflow are checked after the charge settles. The result is checked before the truck returns to Port of Tacoma Tideflats yards.
