HVAC Tools My Everyday Carry Service Bag

  • I was out in the rain working all day. Therefore I need to empty my tool bag and dry up my tools. Many have asked me to show what I carry all day in my service bag. Some tools might be missing cause I left my power pack in the truck not to get it wet. This is also heating setup. HVAC service tools change with the seasons. Air conditioning tools will not be used. Which is why I have tools to work on boilers and furnaces.

    Been I the trade for 50 years. 2 years ago switched to the very same bag. Have almost the same set up. Good job HVAC HACK

      It's the perfect size for service work. I see too many with really heavy bags. Lots of useless tools unless a repair is required. I would need to get parts from truck and return with needed tools

    Before I started doing controls and programming, I did service and I would say nice set of tools and a great back pack. If you do roof top units east to go up a ladder with a pack. Now my tools are tech screw drivers meter and laptop. Keep up the good work .

      I feel the mct is the right size. The tech mc is just a little small for what I need for troubleshooting. When it comes to repair work I can always use a bucket to carry extra stuff. Yet usually I can fit it all in the mct

    Good video. What I have been doing of late is moving to mult-tools and weight reduction. Just like your Malco handles and how you can make nut drivers out of it by just addig the various drive bits or connect to your right angle driver, this is a good example of multi tool so you can reduce carrying a nut driver set and reduce added weight. Another example is carry a multi stripper/needle nose/crimper cutter so you can remove carrying individual single purpose pliers. I moved away from veto as right off the bat they are empty bag-extremely heavy and they have so many pockets and since all us HVAC guys are actually tool pack rats- tend to stuff way more tools than we need. Over time, 10 times a day slinging that heavy veto onto your should adds up to shoulder injury over time. To reduce this I moved to back pack style bag, even distributed weight on my shoulders and I went to the klein as it is lighter. Just food for thought from a 40 year HVAC tech. Thanks for your video, I really enjoyed it.

    The great Hacker has more tools in his work bag than the regular HVAC worker. He outsmarts his competition by having the tools to do any type job that he goes to. He can complete any job quicker than any other technically inclined person that thinks that they are smarter the The Hacker ! The Hackers skills are so great he could win the Nobel laureate prize !!

    I do hate when my stuff gets wet! I don't like when you guys with the impacts put screws back in ...they strip out most of the time and the next guy has a bitch getting panels off. Also i will have to make another hole next to the one you stripped.

    • @thehvachacker
      @thehvachacker  4 года назад

      If you know how to use a drill you won’t strip out screws. The screws don’t need to be tight just secure. Yet also remember the screw holes also rot out over time. You have bare metal exposed to the elements. Therefore even if a unit never had a screw drilled on the holes still will slowly get bigger. I should of left my bag shut instead of slightly open under the v shaped condenser. Yet even though I know I’m not overtightening the screws I have witnessed many who feel you need for lbs of torque on a screw that just needs to hold a door on.

      Those little 12v Milwaukee (others too) drivers changed that. You have use one to find out what I mean. I just put together a bunch of Ikea cabinets, screwing wood screws into particle and MDF with out any stripping whatsoever. I would not think about using an 18v impact for that.

      I only need to troubleshoot and diagnose. I actually can do many repairs with what I have in this bag. If I have a part to change I can bring tools needed for the repair. Yet why lug useless tools around? What tools am I missing for maintenance/ troubleshooting? Other than a lighter to relight standing pilots
