Charging new AC system

rrs1Member

I have a new OEM style York compressor, new drier, and new hoses. Conventional wisdom says take it to a professional. But I want to explore doing it myself. I know years ago it would be unheard of, but a set of gauges seem to be pretty cheap, and information plentiful. Who has charged a new system? Is it a problem? Tips, etc. The word evacuation, keeps entering my mind, but don't know what it means or if it's needed. Is this necessary?

I have recharged system on another car. Super easy with a little hand held Interdynamics gun/gauge that screws onto a can of refrigerant.

Thanks.
