Man Brother this is Great! Really helpful. I’ve been in the HVAC trade for 35 yrs and we’ve had to insulate our own duct and piping. Always hated doing it! But it is a major necessity. Most guys I know feels the same way. But if you gotta do it. Then you need to do it right. So these tutorials you are putting out. Are really helpful. When bubble wrap/reflective insulation came out. People fell for the easy no itch material/method. But it’s be debunked that the R value can’t ever be close to 1-1/2 - 2” wrap!! Even with the 1” air space that you’re supposed to put in between the metal and wrap. And then wrap again! It still doesn’t give you the proper value and it too expensive of a material vs Reg Duct wrap that it makes no sense to do it unless it’s reg wrap. I like the “We the People “ tat brother

Use chock line From side to side

Very nice video, made it easy for me to understand. Thank you.

Thank you very much for the info. I am learning geothermal and have 34 years hvac experience. I would be so thankful if you could tell me what fittings I would use to get from the testo 549 to the test tool for pressure. I’m a big fan of testo.

This guys is the man! This the video to watch on field fabricating duct! Awesome work 👏

i'd hire you in a heartbeat! I always tell people you must make yourself valuable and detail oriented. you are both.

thanks for sharing.....great skills..

Nice!

Always nice to have installed products on hand to measure and line voltage for tools available. Again, beautiful job 😂

Beautiful work 😂.

Been doing install a long time. Never thought to use s lok as a brake❤

You really taught with good will. Thank you very much.

Terrific

Where do I connect a roomcooling unit to a geothermal heatpump? When dealing with an airpump the the hot air is heating up the fluid in the airunit that later is compressed by a compressor in the outside unit before it is evaporated out via the fan. So I guess the process must be reversed in the geothermal heatpump as well and the heated fluid leaving the room must be compressed inside the geothermal heatpump before it leaves the pump via the plastic pipes down to the ground.

I'm so glad I find this channel So many things to learn here. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge

Thank you from a do your self guy

Really good information I have a question. Do you made that combo equipment or we can buy somewhere?

Do they make inline temperature probes and/or pressure gauges? Would that be better since it would be on there 24/7 and we wouldn’t have to worry about damaging the o-ring or losing refrigerant?

This might be one of the best general sheet metal working videos I’ve ever seen. 20 year HVAC tech, used to be residential A/C guy, so always dabbled in transitions, usually had a sheet metal guy working with me. Now I’m union commercial so don’t see too much tin work. Doing 4 furnace replacements and this was the perfect brush up.

This is a nice way to assemble the insulation that I like. Do you just make the "center" of those tuning cuts bigger for elbows at less angles? Like a 45, instead of a 90.

Been doing this my whole adult life and never seen this. Your work is CLEAN! Thanks for the video!

Owens Corning, Knauf, Johns Manville, etc recommend (duct circumference + 17") for 3" insulation, including 2" lip. So for 12" duct, it would be 38" + 17" = 55" Are you compressing the 3" insulation too much with 46"? That only gives you 1" of insulation thickness.

man, thanks a lot for this! very helpful!

Attention Milwaukee tool: This man needs a cordless tool solution.

I've looked everywhere for an adapter that would take and go from the register into the trunk line on both sides and continue down and across the transfer duct kind of a wonky T. They are nowhere to be found. I applaud you making your own

Great vid. I have an application where the liner will come in rolls, non-adhesive backed. Do you trust the adhesive that you paint on or would you recommend adding pins?

New to the trade - explanations are clear - finish work is great - minimal steps that run consecutive make for less comebacks. Thanks

Great explanation! Thank you! 😊

Great information thank you , I'm just a handyman but pretty skilled...learning how to do my own furnace install....

Jack Reacher. Awesome!

Next level!

We use something called a stack head in Raleigh NC, And we will pan off the floor joists underneath the house

I can’t work with gloves on either. #leather hands

You may have talked about this already, but new to this industry. Do you absolutely have to put the mastic on even though you used the mastic tape ? Just thinking about realistic purposes of letting that dry overnight.

I worked in Sweden where geothermal is very commonly added to existing backyards . The most common is a single vertical bore hole along with a domestic hot water generator. Most single family houses especially the newer builds have basement mechanical rooms that are very impressive. It’s mostly radiators and baseboard heating for super comfortable environments. Also most cites have district heating and cooling that’s why the streets in Stockholm are always torn up.

Making a template out of sheet metal for common sizes would make this process so much quicker

Thank you. THis was really thorough even for 'basic' and cleared up a few things I hadn't known I hadn't known.

Kawahla pouch style nail aprons are what I prefer, if you can find a 3 compartment that’s what I’d recommend

I think this guy’s A little bit passed journeyman label? I’d be willing to bet he is a licensed HVAC contractor with 15-20 years experience

Awesome. Never found such a great video with great explanation of hardware used, procedure, pros and cons, all from measurements to installation & finishing. Amazing. Thanks a lot. Would like to see more from you guys.

Thanks for your video...

Combo of s cleat and tongs. Boom good 1" bend with no kinks 😎

Maintenance? Pricing for replacement parts? Comparison or cost to work on ? How do you filter the water ?

Good video

Bro is in a 120-140 degree attic filming content 💯

Thanks for the help, love your videos! My foreman always told me don’t be the guy who finds a reason why we can’t get the job done, instead be the guy who always finds a way to get it done correctly and hopefully, safely, and you’ll always have a job.

how efficient is geo and how much more than mini splits

I want forearms like him when I grow up

The first snips you used are 100% not called "bulldogs" anywhere. Those are bench snips, pretty self explanatory. Bulldogs/bullnose are 1" snips meant to cut thicker metal/snaplock & pitt joints or S. Calling it is S-lock is annoying, thank god the kid i worked with who said it quit. Just call it S.

I usually put a 4” S on the duct. That way I can make the whole fitting, install it, slide the furnace/fan coil in underneath it then lower the fitting. Also, it’s easy to avoid the “whistle” he’s talking about with longer screws. You get a feel for it after a while to suck in the back side. Not a bad video, clean work. Just not anywhere near the fastest way to do a nice job.
