How We Make Money

Free to read

Refrigerant Recovery Pro does not charge readers. There are no paid memberships, no newsletter and no shop. The site does not show display ads at the moment.

Where the income comes from

The site earns affiliate commissions through Amazon links. If you click one and make a qualifying purchase, Refrigerant Recovery Pro may earn a commission. Your price stays the same. That is the only source of income. The site has no sponsorships and no partnerships, and it does not take payment for coverage. The legal wording is on the Affiliate Disclosure page.

Why this model

Guides on HVAC tools take time to research, write and review. Affiliate links let us pay for that work without putting up a paywall or filling pages with ads. Readers who want to buy a tool can follow a link. Readers who only want to learn can skip it.

Keeping commissions from steering advice

The business model creates a pull toward recommending whatever sells. We try to counter it in these ways.

  • Pages are built from manufacturer specifications, public product information and aggregated buyer feedback, not from what pays best.
  • An editorial review checks each page before publishing.
  • Drawbacks stay in the description even when a link earns a commission.

The process is laid out in the Editorial Policy.

What this means for a reader

When you see a link to Amazon on a page, assume it is an affiliate link. Following it is optional, and the information on the page does not depend on whether you do. If you would rather not use our links, search for the tool on the store yourself. The facts in the guide stay the same. We would rather you know how the site pays for itself than wonder about it.

What we do not do

  • We do not run display ads at the moment.
  • We do not sell tools or ship anything.
  • We do not charge for access or run a membership.

No paid praise

Refrigerant Recovery Pro does not accept payment in exchange for positive coverage. Nobody can buy a better description of their product.
