Only the Hoses You'll Ever Need

Yellow Jacket Hoses are just what you need. Other brands like hilmer are good too, but at the end of the day you can't beat the yellow jacket. If you change the seals from time to time, these hoses will last you for many years.

Pros
  • The Best
Cons
  • Some Difficulties

Always a good choice

We all know that the best HVAC gear is the yellow jacket. I prefer low loss fittings/ball valves so customers don't see gas leaks when I remove gauges. These hoses seem to last around 1-1.5 years, the POE oil tends to eat them up.

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Weight

Great hose set.

Love these hoses. I like them better than Schrader type low loss tubing because the system is about to load. I can close the high-pressure and tank valves and drain the contents of the hoses into the system. If it's still a little low I can just open them up again and add more. No disconnecting and reconnecting hoses. No quality problems. So far these are great hoses. I'll update if they find premature leaks or explosions.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Poor Hose Quality

Yellow Jacket is well known to many of us HVAC technicians and installers who make decent quality tools and products. I received these hoses and they looked good, I didn't really think much about them other than they look and feel good. Okay, on the first day the first AC unit can't read any pressure on my liquid gauge. Remove the red hose to check and the center valve core pusher insert is missing! I read other reviews of similar core depressor issues before purchasing and thought these wereโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Operating Speed

Shameful failure. And no warranty support

Just adding the body of my support email from Yellow Jacket: Hello, I bought this product from Revain about 45 days ago: Yellow Jacket GIDDS-505049 60" Charging hose kit with compact. Is there a guarantee? Today is my first time using these hoses, and the red hose does not hold pressure (blue and yellow are suitable). What can I do about it? Paul === ======= Hello!

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Negative result available

abominable. We usually change our hoses every year.

I have purchased many of these hoses in the past but the recent order of 6 sets of hoses for me and the installation team is terrible. We typically change our hoses every year to ensure proper cleaning and filling. I do it for free for my crews. The hoses I bought on 11/5/15 were complete crap! When flushing and draining the extra charge left in the hose before loading, the hoses fire a brass Schrader depressor from the end of the hose! I've been in this industry for a long time and have beenโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Consistent Test Results
Cons
  • Defects
