Braze: Cooling and Safety

Braze: Cooling and Safety

Braze: Mark in ActionLet’s conclude the brazing process and DO NOT forget about safety!

Braze: Cooling and Safety

Cooling: After the brazing alloy has solidified and formed a strong bond between the components, the assembly is allowed to cool.

Safety: Let’s not forget about safety as the flames are hot. When brazing ensure you have a small pale filled with water and a rag just in case it is needed. Upon brazing completion, remember the pipes are hot so do not grab immediately, place water and rag on the line as well. In addition, make sure you keep the torch away from your flesh, clothes, or objects nearby.

Conclusion: HVAC brazing is commonly used for connecting copper tubing and fittings in air conditioning and refrigeration systems. It ensures a reliable and leak-free connection, essential for the efficient operation of HVAC systems.

We’ll continue next time and review characteristics employers are looking for when it comes to becoming an excellent employee and HVAC Technician.
