Texas Test Plugs and the HVAC Industry go hand-in-hand

HVAC Industry

In HVAC systems, Texas Test Plugs provide convenient access for taking temporary pressure and temperature readings without needing permanent gauges or compromising system insulation.

Pressure and temperature readings are used to monitor efficiency, including problem diagnostics, in various HVAC components such as condensers, evaporators, and refrigerant lines.

Common applications:

Pump performance

Located on either side of a pump to measure inlet and discharge pressure, which allows for the calculation of the pump’s operating pressure.

Hydronic systems

Used in both hot and chilled water systems to monitor pressure and temperature.

Heat exchangers

Installed to check the pressure and temperature on both sides of the heat exchanger.

Air handling units

Used to monitor air and gas lines.

System troubleshooting

Provide a quick and easy way to take readings for diagnosis without needing to install permanent gauges.
