I didn't even know Klein made one, I thought they stayed on the multi-meter/hand tools side

​@AB_HVAC ET110 Look up their boroscope too Klein ET17

It is! I definitely like this newer model they have, the older one took batteries and had a smaller display i think

I really like it, thanks for checking out the video!

As in the new refrigerant is a pain to work with?

M18 Transfer Pump

Yeah u did that after the fact. I'm pretty sure in the video I zoom in on some joints to prove I glued it

@@AB_HVAC Thanks.

The breather is me leaving the top off the exit of the trap, it works the same

@ that is what I mean by breather. Not sure if there’s other ways of doing it.

@HallelujahHVAC ooohh, my bad 🙏🏽

It's amazing how many newer homes i (probably a lot of us) still see with flat/level drain lines

I started in community college taking HVAC courses. COVID Lockdowns hindered me from completely finishing the program but I got my first HVAC job doing light commercial install on hotels while still going to school.

Nice brother. I’m starting my new job as an installer helper/apprentice type thing this week for senica air conditioning here in Florida. All I got is my EPA universal and a hvac residential cert both from SkillCat so no formal hands on training all online. Wish me luck😂

It's never been a requirement down here as far as what I've seen us do on new construction

It's kind of back and forth down here. It's getting cool at night but by 12/1 it's hot enough to turn the AC on

I definitely am a fan of all their style systems. I don't like their evap coil designs but that's about it.

Man I'm telling ya 😅

Idk man, that was a steady stream, considering there was nothing draining at all when I got there

The issue they never had a vent after the p in original so it wasn’t flowing 🫠

They make them coils aluminum now to be cheap that’s the main reason for drain lines getting clog more often

I just figured it was because the water was sitting in the line too long causing it to sit and just buildup the bacteria that backed it up

@@AB_HVAC but you did not clean any of the crud out of there, it can be 90% blocked and still drain. pouring water in the vent to see it it really drains fast or pouring cleaner to open it up

Thanks 👍

Thank you for tuning in man! It is very rewarding making sure people are comfortable again in their home

You’re chatting

😅

I'll go in the invoice rn and notate that, thanks for the note!

THANKS!

I'm not joking either lol

@@AB_HVAC I mean, yeah, you're gonna find the leak for sure, but.... 😬

Dang, you think it was just manufacturer crap or you find something else wrong with it?

@ so I’ve only been in the trade 2 years and we scope heat exchangers with the company I work for…. And let me tell you any design that has a Bryant style heat exchanger I find cracks so often. Carrier, Payne, Bryant this acroaire today was designed just like Bryant and big ol crack down the middle…. Bryant is the most common furnaces I find cracks in

@ so to answer your question yes I think Bryant makes terrible heat exchangers

Huh, that's crazy. I normally find them in the Goodman Package units or Lennox ones down near me. But from what everyone tells me in the comments the systems I work on have too small of returns, so I wonder if that plays a factor in it

The amount of code violations we all see on a daily is just ridiculous

I saw that immediatly.

That's what I figured

Oh 100%. I'll never forget the learning experience of misdiagnosing a bad heat exchanger 🫠

🤣🤣 that's what I'm saying

No I should've been more clear, I just told them to leave it ON for overnight to help with drying up the return. I understand you can go a half ton bigger, but these apartments original systems when built were 2 ton condensers on 2.5 air handlers. Going up to a 2.5 ton all the way around makes sense to me, but not going up a half ton indoor and outdoor on an apartment where I can't do much ductwork changes without ripping down drywall everywhere

Well that's just a "/" style coil and there's no cracks in the pan that I can feel. I twas draining water very well through the pvc by the end of the call but the suction line was HEAVILY saturated, but I just chalked that up to my 70% humidity. But even then, the suction pressure was slowly dropping as the unit ran but then it'd steadily drop the SH as well which made me think in low load conditions the coil would freeze up

What kind of pump were you using to empty the pan

@jimjeffries5564 a Milwaukee M18 Transfer Pump. Definitely worth all the money if you have to deal with a lot of drain issues. I've cleared out 30x60 Emergency pans in less than 5min

Thanks man, the amounts of P.O.S's we all touch is ridiculous. Even with giving financing people don't wanna replace stuff, but then get mad at the pricing for their broken parts 🙃

Pffftt man if I owned this place I'd be definitely pulling clean parts off scrapped Rheem units just to get by until it's time to replace. But I just moved in here a few months ago, the ductwork is abysmal, my return is choked through a wall cavity, I can barely keep the humidity levels near 65 on +85° days here in South Carolina. Only house I maintain in tip top shape is my mommas 🤣

I could understand why. I think for the fact we needed both work trucks to have a manometer I don't mind using the new joblink while giving the new guy the other one. Only hassle is just relying on my phone battery and good connection 😅

If I remember right it was like mid to high 60s out at the time we were there doing the work. There was no dataplate on there to tell me how much it came from the factory with, so I wasn't in ideal temperatures to charge in either mode.

When I get access to my crawl space to better explain my return duct issue, I'll definitely do that video

@@AB_HVAC On the other side of that, if you're not the "homeowner", then it makes sense that you wouldn't necessarily want to "invest" in a rental, right? But, you could still go though it and maybe point out those things that make sense and those that don't. Anyway, it will be a cool vid to watch.

I like the thought of it. Totally makes sense man, thanks for always tapping in on these videos 🙏🏽

Just haven't needed to?

@AB_HVAC I haven't yet needed to pull them out.

@mattwoodbridge7924 gotcha. I think I'm gonna really enjoy using them for static pressure more than anything

@@AB_HVACmake a video using them on static pressure
