R-134a and R-404A service for Wilmington APU calls
Freon recharge work near Port Wilmington is handled with refrigerant identification, recovery discipline, vacuum testing, and measured charging so downtime is not repeated.

Vacuum hold behavior
A vacuum pull and hold check help expose moisture, air, or a leak before the truck returns to Port Wilmington freight movement.
Cooling verification
