Great looking cylinders

I purchased two cylinders to use on R134a & R404a. I wanted one cylinder to hold the charge while I completed any repairs and return the charge back to the customers unit and one to take the old refrigerant with me if I could not reintroduce the customers refrigerant back into their system. So I purchased two more, total of 4 so far. It's a great looking tank, convenient size, well made, and from a well known company. As I deal with more refrigerants I will purchase more cylinders to stay compliant to EPA 608. My local supply house sells a different brand that's more expensive, but these are far better looking.

High quality, works well.

I'm an ASE certified mechanic who purchased this along with a Robinair rg6 to do evacuations on car air conditioners to minimize refrigerant loss during servicing that requires removal of ac components. I just have to say, I had no idea what I was missing! Using this to store refrigerant over night allows me to purge air after leaving it undisturbed, and the liquid draw off allows me to pump it into the high side using the recovery machine which GREATLY speeds up ac filling. I wish I would have made this investment sooner! My tank is hydro'd until 2022, about 4 years from my purchase date! For the roughly $100 it cost at my time of purchase, it's absolutely perfect!! Keep in mind though that at the 80% full capacity for safety, it only holds about 24lbs so if you need to hold more, get a bigger tank. That said for vehicles 30 pounds is overkill. The port for a float sensor is perfect for cleaning oil out of the tank periodically.

This is an excellent tank for the price!

I know that this is lower in cost than most of the other available recovery tanks you see sold, but that does NOT mean in any way that it is lower quality or value. This is as good as any tank I have ever seen or used. Small, clean, well made. If there were anything about it that is not up to that standard, it would be the chincy plastic strip stuck around the top handle rim.... it is really out of character when you consider this unit as a whole too. This unit has excellence all over it, then they put this bit of crappy trim, around the top of the handle/valve protector ring: it didn't actually need it anyway, but I sort of like it there so I took it off (easily slips right off and would never stay their anyway) and filled the slot with clear silicone, then I stuck it back on the rim so that it will remain their a bit longer. No big deal. :-) I do NOT think that anything will disappoint you if you buy this product and save some money doing so. Enjoy.

Good tank.

18 months from the manufacturer date. But im ok with that because the price was so much lower then elsewhere.

This is a very nice recovery tank

This is a very nice recovery tank. For those who know, it is dot approved and it is filled with nitrogen (not vacuumed). Just be sure to vacuum it out when you are ready to use it. Better than my tanks I get at the supply house, but hey, none of my other tanks have failed on me, so I guess as long as they work, then they are good enough. It is nice and shiny if that matters to all of you hvac guys. Maybe your wife won't mind it as much in the garage. Haha.

👍

Exactly as described great price shipped on time. Even received it early

Does the job

Purchased this to recover R22 from a system that was being replaced. Worked perfectly. Comes with about a 100psi of Nitrogen in the tank. Some recommend flushing the tooling oil out, others say it's not a big deal. Usually tanks have a flush process in manufacturing before they're sealed up. I haven't had any issues with them and they hold a vacuum/seal perfectly. If you plan to store for longer periods of time, I'd recommend getting some brass w/o-ring 1/4" SAE caps just as an extra precaution. For those wondering, my tank empty sat at exactly 18lbs 0oz.

Tank is affordable and as described. No reason I can see to pay more!

The tank works as described and is very affordable. Came purged with N2. Test date is 4.5 years out.

Cannot Go Wrong

Everyone seems to go for the huge or bigger brand named products when Mastercool is also up to par with quality as well, and in my opinion just as good at a much lower price! I do not see how anyone else's recovery tanks could be any better built than these! Very solid tank, good valves and it meets the requirements which says alot about their quality! When you stop and think about all the freon sold in disposable tanks that are made according to federal and state requirement guidelines to contain the pressure of the gas that they hold and are completely safe! How can a recovery that's made from what seems to be much heavier metal, both in weight and strength be inferior to a gas that comes sold in a much thinner and lighter tank? In refrigeration equipment, quality is always a must and I have to say that this tank meets if not exceeds the kind of quality you would expect for years of recovery and at a lower price than most! You cannot go wrong! 5 stars and no less!
