You got a helicopter 😊

Probably a restricted vent

Holes in the heat exchanger

a hole in the heat exchanger the size of your fist or clogged up flu

The fire

I have a question for you. My Rheem 4 ton heat pump system is 5 years old and sometimes when i run heat it smells like spoiled milk but it doesn't do that all the time. I was told to get those charcoal filters which i have been using but again the smell comes back once in a while only when heater is running. I have had a few hvac techs come look at the system and they do not know the cause of this other than recommending that i use charcoal filters. What do you think?

Rather than dismantling the fan just follow the wires outside to the cap or contactor and check from there. My tech showed me easy way to check compressor. Right or wrong?

Its not heating

You could have checked it without taking it all apart.

Not an ac guy and don’t know anything but your videos are good! Keep up the great work!

Good work diagnosing the issue! Nice tools and setup btw

Something I would do is let the blower cool the heat exchanger off before you just cut the power it risks cracking it, but other than that good job with the work!

Isn't it under warranty? How much did you charge

I use brake cleaner on wasp it works super fast and the smell goes away,

Pandemic parts! Supply chain issues will haunt us for years to come.

A polarized filter for your HVAC system offers several benefits, enhancing both air quality and system performance. Here are the main advantages: 1. Improved Air Quality • Enhanced Particle Capture: Polarized filters use an electrostatic charge to attract and trap smaller particles like dust, pollen, pet dander, mold spores, and smoke that standard filters might miss. • Removes Odors and VOCs: Many polarized filters can capture volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and odors, improving indoor air quality. 2. Efficient Filtration • High Efficiency with Low Airflow Restriction: Unlike some high-efficiency filters (e.g., HEPA), polarized filters maintain strong filtration performance without significantly impeding airflow, ensuring optimal HVAC performance. 3. Energy Savings • By allowing better airflow while maintaining high filtration efficiency, polarized filters reduce strain on the HVAC system, improving energy efficiency and potentially lowering utility bills. 4. Extended HVAC System Life • Polarized filters prevent more dirt, dust, and debris from entering the system, reducing wear and tear on components like the blower motor and heat exchanger, extending the lifespan of the HVAC unit. 5. Ease of Maintenance • Many polarized filters use disposable pads or washable components, making them easy to maintain without frequent replacements of the entire unit. 6. Reduction in Allergy and Asthma Symptoms • The ability to trap fine particles and allergens can significantly benefit individuals with allergies or asthma, providing cleaner air to breathe. 7. Eco-Friendly Option • With some reusable components and better energy efficiency, polarized filters can be a more environmentally friendly choice compared to disposable filters. While polarized filters are generally more expensive upfront, their long-term benefits in air quality, energy efficiency, and system longevity often make them a worthwhile investment for homeowners prioritizing cleaner air and lower HVAC maintenance costs.

If your furnace keeps going off on high limit, it typically means the system is overheating. Here are the key areas to check: 1. Airflow Issues: • Dirty Air Filter: A clogged filter restricts airflow, causing the furnace to overheat. Replace the filter regularly. • Blocked Vents or Ducts: Ensure supply and return vents are open and free of obstructions. • Blower Motor Problems: If the blower isn’t working correctly, it won’t circulate air properly, leading to overheating. 2. Heat Exchanger: • A cracked or damaged heat exchanger can cause the system to overheat. Inspect it carefully or have a professional check it. 3. High-Limit Switch: • The high-limit switch itself could be faulty. If it’s malfunctioning, it may trigger prematurely. 4. Dirty or Blocked Furnace Components: • Dirty Blower Wheel: Dust buildup on the blower wheel can reduce airflow. • Clogged Secondary Heat Exchanger: Debris or buildup can restrict airflow and cause overheating. 5. Improper Gas Pressure: • If the gas pressure is too high, the furnace may produce excessive heat. A professional can test and adjust this. 6. Size of the Furnace: • An oversized furnace can cycle too quickly, potentially triggering the high-limit switch. This requires assessing whether the furnace is appropriately sized for your home. 7. Thermostat Placement: • A thermostat located in an area with temperature extremes can cause the furnace to overwork, leading to overheating.

Recently discovered your channel and I enjoy the content. I’m currently in school learning hvac and seeing vids like this really helps me understand the process of things I’ll see

Helpful video. In that slot on the side, where is their filter? However stop wrapping your meter wires so tight, in no time they will be broken.

For the newbs, when it's removed you need to discharge the capacitor on your tongue. Best way to know if it is still good or not.

Wasted video

Blower motor ceased up

Nice job checking the wiring diagram vs just trusting the last tech wired it correctly. Also like the “rock shims” on that first unit.

Thank you

My Klein meter doesn’t check mf

Wtf is a starter

Contactor is not a starter until it's rated for 100a or more.

First and foremost, you gotta discharge the capacitor or it will shock the hell outta you. It can be fatal.

Hambone is right Shut disconnect first Discharge capacitor with a screwdriver or your gonna get zapped

Buy a 3M marker and scribble a √ Now find the √ on your keyboard....I'll wait.

Just uploaded a better video demonstrating the process. Hope this helps. ruclips.net/user/shortsHTyKvlcTuuQ?si=lTqSlsSy6b9xrOdC

RED TAG

Love that he didn't show him actually checking the cap 😂

Terrible install

Terrible video guy.

This isn’t a how to if you’re just going to talk about it and not actually demonstrate the process.

Good job bro!

That inducer motor in that Rudd is crud

Only works if it's still legible. I ran into that issue this past Summer. Had to Google the make/model. Was able to get a replacement the next day.

discharge the cap

My advice would be concerning the heat strip is obviously figure out proper heat kit for this unit. And most importantly get a licensed electrician to run the wire from the panel to the heater. Nice work.

Is this an old house? It looks tight in there. I would imagine they would design it with more space so you can stand up. (Like my house)

Had to parkour just to service this thing

Good work...i was holding my breath as you was walking around the attic opening!! you have to be aware of your space..be safe

Nice Diagnosis Take Care Brother

Good job enjoyed the video

I assume taking all those pictures is something you share with your customer ?

I seem to find a lot of these goodman furnaces where the port gets clogged and messes with the pressure switch.

Goodman's furnaces are strange I've came across ones that have clogged pressure switches but still have the igniter lighting but no voltage to gas valve.
