When it comes time for you to replace the schrader you must have the system empty of all refrigerant. Removing the valve with the system partially filled can results in frost bite if your hand is near the opening. The refrigerant is passing from a high pressure area through a small opening which result in the Bernoulli's principle of fluid dynamic.
