So did that fix it lol

Good for you Charles and it's okay to make mistakes but admit them and check your work. I have had that happen to me on cars. For example on my car I kept getting a code from a faulty senser changed my oil on it code would still not clear but at first it was intermittent when it was low on oil finally figured out it was my cam position senser on the b position and put the original factory one on and removed the replacement one I put on temporarily until I could order a new one and the code cleared up. Heck I even ordered defective parts before but it's also a good way to learn what brands are good for replacements and which are junk as I don't see hvac as bieng they diferent from cars And look you got a maintenance plan from the custumer and some respect because you did not swoop in and try and quote him a bunch of repairs that he does not need. People need to stop with trying to Make a, quick buck and always pushing new systems they fill up junkyards and landfills. If it broke don't fix it trick is keep them going until they break. Unless the system was undersized. And Charles I hate when guys moan the system is oversized replace it crap. I would much rather have a oversized system within reason VS an undersized system and to argue I am right when I had a apartment that was 650 square feet there were 2 12,000 Btu window ac units in a, sleeve and they were perfect and only made my electric bill go up 20 dollars in the hottest summer months. So it was oversized between the 2 by maybe 4,000 btus but that's okay it did it's job when it was really hot out and humid. And that's my point.

I use Appion CCT14 core control tools is expensive but is worth.

Hey, I made a comment of the probes were backwards on your last video. But I didn't see you using those adaptors. But glad everything is working out.

I use those cheap ones. And some from apperon. Same for me no issues.

When I use core depressors I keep my eyes on the guage while in turning it, when it starts to read pressure I just give it one or two turns again because sometimes the core pin can slip to the side of the depressor if depressed to much especially if you're using a cheap depressor tool

I threw those exact core depressors away after I found them to be faulty in my readings. I use the newer Fieldpiece and the Accutool core tool fittings. I don't care for the Appion units but having good luck with the other two. We have multiple sets for each van.

Hey very Proud of you catching and going back to check on that. It Doesn't change my mind about You what so ever. Always Great knowledge, professional work, and great content for sure. We all make mistakes, some don't catch them, but All Good to Go!!! HVACRon America!!!

I use the Appion CCT14 Core Control Tool 1/4in Female to 1/4in Male.

It used to be hard for me to admit mistakes 50 years ago. Now at 71, I've made so many that I just apologize in advance!

I would highly recommend watching these videos. Not for the new technicians or novice

A place here actually sells used equipment once a year in some sort of scratch and dent sale. At least this is what I'm told by my customers.

What system is this?

Really. Refrigerant wow

Revoke there license

Ŕipoff

The XV doesn't control the outdoor fan for low ambient operation?

65… jesus. I bet the cold air is being lost somewhere so that by the time it gets to the master bedroom it’s like 72. May want to invest in better insulation

💯

"Everybody knows" 🤣🤣🤣

Yep...more than 50% of HVAC are scammers. Licensed contractor and all ! Sad. We need some HVAC police to get rid of those types. I wonder if one of those handheld infrared temperature guns could give you an accurate reading for the evaporator coil. If it would, those would be a great asset to have for various needs. They likely have the filter located in the return register grille which I think is best.

Great drain location

Terrible 😞

Good job Charles txv jobs to me should not cost more than 1500 dollars including adding any refrigerent and vacuaming out the line set too. Hope you get it Charles and get a service contract from them and then quote them to fix that crappy drain pipe issue. Screw them large companies and that's the problem nowadays it's hard to find old school mom and pipe buisneses for hvac or even plumbing. Don't these big corporate guys get that you make more money off of service contracts and maintaining systems VS just wanting to sell new systems all the time. And fancy gadgets like air purifyers heck they could make money too off of duct cleaning services too. Remember new systems and installs take a lot more time if done right VS only doing what's necasarry. Ohh and Charles no oem txv use a good aftermarket one but 10 years out of the original is not bad for a txv.

Nice step by step on checking a system. I appreciate your expertise.

Funny thing is these big companies practically brainwash their employees to. Have a friend and former coworker that went to work for the big company in our area. The 1st week it was "man idk if I should have left, they really push sales here", to barely a year later arguing that having a monthly quota he needs to meet doesn't promote dishonesty.

I am a senior citizen and it is disgusting how our country have become nothing by " Thieves and liars ". People would throw their grandmother under the bus if they could make a dollar doing it.

Is it your opinion that a 7 degree difference across the dryer is not restricted? Most of the common instructors that we all know say anything more than 1-2 degrees is a concern.

No one to blame but the customers themselves. Everybody wants immediate service and is unwilling to wait even a few hours. Plus no one works off word of mouth, everything is google, whichever company shoes up first. No loyalty.

Sad to say for sure definitely ripping people off, big box hackers. Been around and in the trade for many many years , I see companies daily ripping people off. Plus if ya get into a rental situation of equipment they put a lean against ya house without telling ya. All true what ya said about them. Glad they got you doing the work, true professional. Thanks you for your outstanding work.

it's a no brainer, I'll go with Al822 all day long

go pro was shakin its head NO, I ain't goin up in that hot attic

Won't that affect cooling efficiency? Pretty cool. Also, how would the blower be wired? Board in the air handler? Green to board, and I'm assuming some sort of switch on the board to control the variable speed motor??

Why isn't that condensate line not insulated? I know it's short but it may sweat. Thank you for the hard work. Have a great weekend.

What do charge for the repair, I started servicing in my area….. an idea… just asking

👍

As an installer I couldn’t imagine driving 45 min to someone’s house just to do this.

NOT REFRIGERANT!!!

Great video! What’s the deal with all that caulk on the Hyperion?

😂 some refrigerant yeah don't do that epa is going to be calling you

replace the whole thing 🙄

If you do that you just blow the plug back into the drain pan where it can float back into the drain line. You have to clean out the debris in the drain pan also. Something as small as a label that dislodges can be enough to plug the line.

the friedrich ones are pretty quiet

Your videos are awesome and super useful. Thanks

Always get something new to learn from these videos, thanks for posting.

Craig who??

Whenever I do that, I change all of them on the initial visit.

We did not trap the drains on those TAM’s. Condensate positive side of coil. Seemed we had a lot of drain issues with the traps, setting off the secondaries when we did trap them. Nice vid.

Those Hyperion units are garbage. Someone scattered those all over my area. Boards galore and leaking coils. Just buy a 14 seer unit folks.

Hi Mr. HVAC man you said you you check the state of North Carolina and couldn’t come up with a board if you were really desperate for one you can get one real quick and that’s you could’ve contacted Ted Cook Ted Cook has most all boards for train units he’s a train dealer. He loves train units, I follow you guys. It’s just a suggestion. I thought you guys for the closed so try cooks heating and air in South Carolina. My homebase is in Tallahassee Florida and my name is Fred. Good luck on the board.
