That was probably when there was money in it,before other trades got involved…
Although rule changes beginning next year in Qld will hopefully sort out the other trades.

We are always too busy for them,even in the middle of winter

Correct. Sparkies thought they were wonderful, Pre-charged lines, did their own electrical. What could possibly go wrong?

I’ve never used a unit with pre charged lines. But I’ve only ever installed splits for myself and family.

LEAK LOK! Noah used that. Wasn't that supposed to infiltrate the fitting thread & stop it unscrewing in the absence of Frost Proof Flare Nuts, not to mention making a good flare in the first instance.

There is no substitute for knowing what you're doing correctly.

Installed properly, Fujitsu High Walls were an excellent system & gave very little problems in my experience. ie. Drop of oil behind the flares, pipe alignment without any strain on the flare & stuff like that.

Do fridgies use that stag stuff? As in what plumbers use on flare joints?

Only for water pipe connections + Teflon Tape applied correctly, & sometimes just the tape but you needed to roughen brass threads otherwise the tape just pulled in & rotated with the fitting.

Roughening the thread also made it easier to wrap the Teflon tape around the thread.
