These are pete port needle and pressure gauge test / fill tools from Schmidty Racing Suspensons and are used to check pressure and or refill / charge the fluid on geothermal loops and ground source heat pump systems. On either size, the port needles are 1-3/8" long from the face of the brass coupler. Each tool has a removable, threaded, aluminum sleeve to protect and keep the needle from damage when the tool is not being used.
We offer tools in three (3) configurations of either a 1/16" or 1/8" size port needle. We also offer individual 1/16" and 1/8" replacement pete port needles. All tools (except individual needles) come with a glycerin filled gauge with 2" face and polished stainless gauge body.
Options:
Model PPNTRN:
These are individual replacement pete port needles with the option of 1/16" or 1/8" sizes.
Individual replacement needles do not come with a gauge.

Model PPNTWGSOHHF:
Test tool for checking pressure and or recharging / filling the fluid on geothermal loops and ground source heat pump systems.

This variation also has a 12" flexible hose between the pressure gauge and the port needle, making the the tool easier to use and it prevents excessive strain on the needle while in the port. 0-100 PSI gauge available.

Works great
Just what I needed to check the pressure in my geothermal closed ground loop system. Love the hose attachment just in case I needed to add more water/glycol. Excellent quality material and well made. The great price doesn’t hurt either. Thanks.

Top quality!
It's one of those times where you absolutely need the right tool in a good one at that to do the job. Even though I'm just a homeowner, I enjoy using professional tools and this fill/test set is certainly professional! The gauges are oil filled and everything feels quality. Have used it a few times already and absolutely love it and recommend it. In addition, I called the folks there at schmitty and had them get this in the mail the same day for next morning delivery. The staff they're bent over backwards for me for the single purchase! I will be purchasing from them again!

PETE PORT
The fitting that the garden hose attaches to needs to be made of better quality. You need to use a wrench to tighten the hose to the pete port so water does not leak in someone's attic

PRESSURE TEST GAUGE
gauge reads pressure of input hose but does not read loop pressure for some reason. HVAC technician' s almost identical pressure tool reads loop pressure fine. I'm not sure what the problem is.
