I don’t think your AC repair man is gone. Appreciate that. If you look at your AC your panel to access, your AC is on the side of your deck and that is the side that you enclosed. It’s gonna be very difficult for your AC guy to do any maintenance. You need that front panel to be a gate.
It appears she only made a two sided fence..? I could be wrong though. Hopefully she will respond and let us know. 🙂
Yes! The fence only has two sides 😊
I would have painted/stained the entire untreated posts, as rain water will cause it to rot very quickly. We've even had pressure treated posts rot a lot more quickly than expected, and we only get rain during 3 winter months... 🙄
Looks great tho, I love that you're doing all the carpentry! 👍🏻 ❤
Shows what we women are capable of, with the right training! 😊
@2Peachcobler,
Well, they hopefully won't need any repairs/maintenance... These AC units hold up for decades!
@@calista1280 I believe in doing yearly maintenance. In the before pictures before she started you could see the knob to the access panel to inspect and clean the AC unit. It now blocked by a post and slats.
Very classy addition to the yard. It should also help buffer the notice of the AC unit when it is on. And I love recycling. Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼👍🏼
I have never seen those fence post protector sleeves! Amazing idea! Thank you!
This is terrific. I only have a hand saw but it looks like something I can do to hide the AC and the trash cans. My only feedback is to put the sections with hinges for maintenance access. I know our AC guy cleans the coils and would need full access to the unit.
I really like your posts. I want to make things like you but do not have the strength or space to do it, therefore I continue enjoying your posts.
This is exactly what I'm looking to do. RUclips algorithm at it again! It always reads my mind. Creepy? Sure! Helpful? Absolutely! 😂
Also want to add that I love seeing women build things. It's so inspiring. Truly. 💪 #feminist #feminism
New sub!
Great video on hiding the "not so pleasant" things! Thanks!!
Hi Stefani,
Everything I see is amazing job.
Thanks for sharing.
Looks terrific. I’m inspired to finally hide my AC!
Thank you, I needed this video (to hide trash cans).
Accurate and expert work once again. You are the best! 🌹
Great job I love all your great work you do
Very nice. Clean and classic
Awesome as usual!
Looks great but I'm not sure if my AC repairman would appreciate it haha 😅
I'm not sure this would meet code in my area because they're weird about dumb stuff. But its a simple fix: just put hinges and a latch on the support holding the slats. This way it can be opened like a gate. 👍
HVAC svc tech for 30yrs, trust me, we hate when homeowners do stupid stuff like this. At least make it removable for crying out loud
@@billyparkinson9933 What are your thoughts on a swinging gate/latch on one side? Still too obstructive? What's the happy medium?
@@shalvaeian it really would need to be on both sides for proper service access. That I would be ok with.
Looks good!
You are awesome ❤
Great idea!!!
The look and hiding functionality is great. The MAJOR problem I saw when watching the video was when your were pouring the cement/concrete bag mixtures into the post holes. The cement dust was being sucked or blown into the A/C unit coils. REALLY, REALLY not good for the unit. You should ensure that the A/C unit is off, and then you should drape plastic over the unit and make sure the cement/concrete dust can not get into the coils of the unit. Once it rains, gets condensation or any amount of moisture, even from humidity, the cement dust will turn into a layer of concrete, and you won't have an easy clean or repair process, but most likely will just need to replace the entire coil unit.
Untreated wood buried in the ground? 😮
It'll last a good 10 years.
The Postsaver Pro-Sleeves double the life of untreated posts. They create an air and water-tight seal that prevents ground-line rot from occurring.
great work as always 👍🏻
DIY = the professionals nightmare
you should NEVER put a fence in front of an A/C unit, stops the flow of air it needs
Yeah your AC guy is gonna be none too happy with you. Leaving only 12" for service. Easily avoidable by making the panels removable. Ive been a HVAC svc tech for 30 years, I would charge you double to work on that.
Can't disagree with you at all. I'm a service tech I it drives me nuts when people do this and fail to consider the AC being serviced properly, safely and efficiently. The "troublesome" fee will definitely be applied.
Fantastic work Stefani, you are great at what you do. It turned out wonderfully.
Very nice, good way to conceal the unit. I really like the caps on top.
So happy to hear you like the Fence Armor CapClaw™Post Caps!
I just (re)built a deck and have an a/c unit next to it that we'll now end up looking at more. Immediately knew I had to check out this video. Thanks!
Great , very nice. You may want to consider boxing wood around those Refrigerant lines and Electrical Cables. Then paint to match the wall. JMO
That's a great idea! Thanks!
Why only do two sides then? What about the remaining side?
Yay, I could do this!
Do you leave enough space for future HVAC replacement? You may need to remove before the new HVAC install can take place
Awesome
Looks good. It gives a nice clean look instead of the eye sore of an ac unit.
I'm surprised you didn't go with screw with all the storms down you way
AC system designers need to start coming out with a stealth mode button. This is an excellent short-term fix. At some point it might help to make it so you can remove the panels for maintenance. Excellent design!!
Good luck to the AC repairman getting in there……
