I cannot tell you how this helped. I spent $48 on three items that went bad after a lightning storm. And this video, and it’s if, then, else approach , was priceless!! I get to call and cancel the appointment in the morning. You CAN do this!! Thank you you valuable gift giver! ✌🏻🎵❤️💨
Just getting into community college for HVAC & I can’t believe how much I’ve learned from your videos, your an amazing explainer and person. Wish you all the best and Thank you for spreading your knowledge🙏🏻
You mean giving away knowledge that we have to pay for going to school? Your new to the field and what you see as helping the senior mechanics see it as taking money out of our pockets. I have no problem with homeowners learning how to fix things but go pay $20k for a year of school to learn. Not learn from a junior Hvac tech like this guy. He sells out his field for a RUclips channel and likes.
@@INKDnARMD bruh you must not do this fr. Constantly evolving technology. New refrigerants. New SEER ratings and most of our supply is kept sold to industry professionals. Homeowners know they don't have the time or desire to learn enough to work on their AC in 93 degree weather. And if it's a refrigerant problem they have to be EPA certified to buy and work with the refrigerant and will still have to call us. No shortage of money out here cuz of this guy. Maybe a few lost capacitors and some sprayed down condensers🤣they ain't bout to bust out a manometer💀
@@INKDnARMD you’re ridiculous for blaming this guy for you losing money. Any tech worth their salt will make money by being good, honest,and establishing clientele. I bet you play people for having batteries in the thermostat. On top of that, most companies charge $500+ for a $30 capacitor. You’re just mad people are learning about your dirty tricks
@@INKDnARMD Face it Mr. Soranno! This guy is the cream of the crop. Happy and content with his life as well his knowledge of his trade. Wealth far beyond U.S. American $ssss
LOL you must be public enemy number 1 to the heating and cooling companies . Thanks for helping the homeowner keep some of the cost of owning a home down your doing a great service wish there were more people out there that are willing to share their knowledge with others. God Bless
I watched all the videos of Master Jay...whenever there's an AC problem, I quickly diagnose and fix the issue...my wife asked me, "How do you know so much about AC?" because 15 years ago when I brought my first house...I didn't even know how to change an AC filter.
What you need to do is put together a package deal, sort of like dvd segments and sell them. 12 dvd sets in a professional package and I think you will make a million. Thanks for your instructions. As a Maintenance person, you have helped me save many hours of hardship and cost to the company with your tips and tricks. Thanks again. I hope those adds are making the money you deserve.
I’ve been doing AC work my whole life with my dad. He started showing me around 13-14 years old. I’m 33 now. I make good money thank god. When you have your hvac/epa and you know what you’re doing you’ll always have work and you can make basically tell them what you want an hour $ 1. Respect your worth never ask for more than you’re worth. Know your limits. 2. Have a solid understanding of electricity and wires. 3. Don’t buy cheap tools. Trust me. Spend the money they’ll pay for themselves.
Nothing like waking up to a scorching hot house. Thanks to this, i was able to easily diagnose my capacitor was bad. A trip to the hardware store and 10 minutes install, boom cold air again. Thank you so much!
Thanks for this knowledgeable video. I'm in Florida, it's hot. AC stopped working, and I had it fixed it less than 30 minutes. Tried to unclog the drain outside, but it still wouldn't turn on. Listened to the video, unclogged from inside, and it went right on. 🎉
ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS keep a spare capacitor or two on hand especially at the beginning of summer and the Temps climb. It will definitely be worth it!!! Awesome Vids!!!
@@shanedm3396 Hey Shane, I get mine from a wholesale distributor here in NC called United Refrigeration but they're available on Amazon also, hope this helps.
This was a very helpful video. I did not have cold air flow, even though it’s a brand new AC unit, and discovered my air filter was super dirty and stopping the air flow. After changing the filter, it still didn’t cool the house. I did a little more research and found out that if you have a clogged/dirty filter it can cause condensation to freeze. This keeps the air from flowing. So, once I changed the filter, I turned the AC off overnight to let the ice melt and now the AC works perfectly. I wanted to share in case someone else has the same issue. I found ice outside on the AC unit (in the middle of a hot summer day) and it felt like there might be some ice in an air duct.
Dude, I’m a girl mechanic and usually only work on cars, trucks and boats. My husband and I recently bought our first house and I’m figuring out all of the house things now. These videos you make are amazing. I’m much of a DIY-er and love to fix and understand things myself and you explain things so well. I will continue to use your videos for future use!
This was excellent for helping me troubleshoot, im a low voltage electrician so I certainly am comfortable with figuring out my ac issues but didn't have a lot of experience in doing so, doesn't get much more clear than this guy's video. Thankyou man
You just saved me from 95F 85RH inside my house. I can’t thank you enough. You have the easiest to understand videos and mapped them out in a really genius way! Only thing I would stress to other viewers is making sure A/C breaker is off in the panel, as well as the disconnect. Cut the main even, if you’re not sure which is what. I thought I discharged the capacitor with the disconnect pulled, but shorted the common to the strap. It flipped the A/C breaker. So might’ve still been live, if I discharged it correctly. My house is old and the electrics box has been moved/replaced several times. So may not be wired normally.
wanted to say thanks for your hvac videos, I watched alot of them, just went through the wiring diagram ones and found them clearly explained & really helpful !
Dang bro. Greatly appreciate these videos! Started working as a maintenance technician in an apartment complex and I've been dealing with nothing but HVAC lol
this guy helped me fix mine with his other video, it was the contactor switch! tested with no voltage going across when closed. I changed the switches on both units and new dual run capacitors as preventative maintenance, cleaned out fins...awesome
I don’t have time to really check my own unit as I have littles who will put anything in their mouth and/or destroy my repairs, but this video is still helpful with dealing with repairmen. Now I will know if the tech brings up something that I know is not a problem with the AC.
Sir! Thank you so much! This video lead me to your thermostat video, and the reason why my A/C unit was inoperative was due to low battery power. Changed out batteries and BOOM, A/C comes on. Thanks again.
Thank you so much man! You are a Godsend! I ended up having a bad capacitor, it was making that exact sound that you displayed at 1:58. My new capacitor was smaller and I was concerned because the it had more prongs than the previous capacitor so I could not reconnect the wires exactly as in the before photo I took. For anyone who might be wondering, turned out it didn’t matter which of the prongs I reconnected the cable to so long as they went to the right function. Fan,common, and herm. Thanks for the time and money you’re saving us!
Best HVAC/R channel in the industry, AND I always like to see your explanation about AC simple and Easy to understand. You are best and I really appreciate you for making this king of informative videos.
OMG I'm so happy I found this video. Heat wave going on and my ac stopped yesterday. I got lucky and it was the capacitor. Fixed it in 30 minutes thanks to you!
Good video, always fun. For a clogged drain I started using a shop vac (wet/dry) to suck the drain out. I had better luck than blowing especially if it had a vent on the line. I can just cover the vent with my hand ( or tape or something if I can't reach it). I carry a small one on my service truck.
Thank you for the tip! That's usually a better option then the compressed air. I had a small bottle of CO2 that was easier to carry around than an air compressor and had much more pressure so I usually just used that. Thanks for commenting, have a great week!
Simply Outstanding! You are a great educator. Very Thorough in your approach. You need to write a book and make it available for homeowners that have some mechanical skills, but far from you level of experience.
A stuck condenser fan motor is exactly what happened to my ac. Replaced it with a new one. Had to change my cap a month before that after finding out that my old cap needs replacement as well. All thanks to you. Btw, my unit is close to 18 yrs old.
Awesome info! I was searching for a good hour with nothing even close to the symptoms on my A/C, but just a couple of minutes in, as you are building up to the suspense (and I'm like omg he's gonna say the same problem I have any second now!!!), boom! there it is! A bad capacitor!
Lol great comment, happy to hear you got it fixed, and I love the username! 😂😂 Thanks for taking the time to write something, stay cool and keep the wife happy! (I have a friend who, whenever he sees my wife and I disagreeing, tells me: Jay.... Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?) 😅
Thank you Jay! 1yr old “new” outside unit has died today 98 degrees! Great info before I call installer! New sub! 64yr widow.I’m gonna try the spinning fan hack. As far as I can tell all systems are go inside. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🥰🇺🇸
Hey boss, I don't know if it has been said before, but here goes. My particular problem came up with the seasonal change. Wiring my thermostat based on an old thermostat's Y2 label did me no favors. Luckily I remembered the fact that I changed it out before it started warming up. I checked the desired wiring on the thermostat manual and swapped the location of the yellow wire from a Y2 slot to the Y slot. This allowed the outside cooling system to actually engage. Without that simple change, it could have cost hundreds for a technician to find this or replace everything; then hide the fact that it was just one single wire out of place.
Good idea to make this video 👍 Kind of like an index. A young boy was sitting on the sidewalk eating one Snickers bar after another, when a man walking by stops and says, son, you shouldn't be eating so much candy, it's not good for your teeth and it will give you a stomach ache. The little boy says, my grandpa lived to be 98. Oh, by eating candy? asked the man. The boy says, no, by minding his own business....
I always forget about ceiling fan switch up or down winter or spring and I Google and ur video literally was so awesome 👌👏 u explained it perfect short and sweet ty I Definitely subscribed to your channel u seem like a smart guy 💕💯👍
I hope you make a lot of money with your videos. This was an excellent video. I'm sure you have saved all of us a lot of frustration as well as costs. Also, for all of us DIYers, you are helping us to understand why the thing doesn't work. Kudos to you!
all in all , i think you have a very good video , you just didnt cover much in my issue , which was the , HVAC float switch, also known as a condensate overflow switch or AC safety switch, is to prevent the drip pan from overflowing if the AC drain stops working properly. The AC float switch gives your AC unit the ability to detect if there is a clogged drain line and it shuts the AC off.
Is it a great service when you go to school and extra classes for certifications, spend years and over $20k to learn the industry and acquire the skills and then have someone come give it all away for free? Service to some but a disservice to the industry. Is he liable if you get hurt or fry out your controls?
So just found your videos after my AC decided not to blow air after returning from vacation. Just found the frozen coils. Hoping melting fixes it. I did confirm the blower fan is working though it’s not seemingly moving fast right now
@@cali2235 Except melting did work. the issue is I turned the ac almost completely off to save power and when i tried to cool it back down to the 70s immediately from the mid 80s, it froze up.
Solid video. Concise and very informative. Topics/issues covered thoroughly and well explained. Best of the videos watched trying to troubleshoot a/c problem.
Your videos are amazing and so useful. I've been watching, but am in need of something a little different, namely, our forced-air system was badly installed. I'm told we have insufficient return air and that we need to improve our ductwork. Do you have, or can you make a video that would address some of the common issues found in a poorly installed system? We're in a townhouse and our middle floor never gets enough heat or cool, it's an inadequate flow and when it is scorching hot even the areas that usually get cooled are nearly impossible to cool. It's an old house and we definitely have insulation issues as well, but the system and how it was installed seems to be our biggest challenge. What would you recommend could be some fixes to improve it? Thanks so much!
Like most of the time, we just see far and not close to us!!! It’s really our “windows” where we have to see first hehehe, thanks for your great videos, God bless you and your family and business.
Great videos and throughly explained step by step you fixed my AC 3 times times already with these videos and saved me money love it .. you sound like European gent so which part of Europe you from if you don’t mind me asking ..

I always forget about ceiling fan switch up or down winter or spring and I Google and ur video literally was so awesome 👌👏 u explained it perfect short and sweet ty I Definitely subscribed to your channel u seem like a smart guy 💕💯👍
I hope you make a lot of money with your videos. This was an excellent video. I'm sure you have saved all of us a lot of frustration as well as costs. Also, for all of us DIYers, you are helping us to understand why the thing doesn't work. Kudos to you!
all in all , i think you have a very good video , you just didnt cover much in my issue , which was the , HVAC float switch, also known as a condensate overflow switch or AC safety switch, is to prevent the drip pan from overflowing if the AC drain stops working properly. The AC float switch gives your AC unit the ability to detect if there is a clogged drain line and it shuts the AC off.
This is an amazing tutorial!
Great video, explanations, and advice. Thank you!
Jay, you are making some great diy videos! These are great for people not familiar with these repairs and you are doing a great service for them!
Is it a great service when you go to school and extra classes for certifications, spend years and over $20k to learn the industry and acquire the skills and then have someone come give it all away for free? Service to some but a disservice to the industry. Is he liable if you get hurt or fry out your controls?
Hey how are you doing
@INKDnARMD 16:28 I'm sure the industry isn't hurting from his "free diy video's"
Refrigeration and airconditioning techinician, watching from Philippines :) God bless sir.
Do you get a lot of AC repair jobs a month over there? And what is the average charge / cost in pesos?
Thank you for the diagnostic help!!
This guy is awesome! Thanks for the great advice.
So just found your videos after my AC decided not to blow air after returning from vacation. Just found the frozen coils. Hoping melting fixes it. I did confirm the blower fan is working though it’s not seemingly moving fast right now
Melting does not do anything it means there is a leak of refrigeration from vapor to liquid causing freezing lines should get it checked out
@@cali2235 Except melting did work. the issue is I turned the ac almost completely off to save power and when i tried to cool it back down to the 70s immediately from the mid 80s, it froze up.
THANKS AGAIN , JAY , FOR THE WONDERFUL INFORMATION ....🌅🌅
Solid video.
Concise and very informative.
Topics/issues covered thoroughly and well explained.
Best of the videos watched trying to troubleshoot a/c problem.
👍👍👍
I always like to see your explanation about AC
Easy to understand
Thank you! Glad to hear that the video is easy to understand. I try my best to not make it too technical.
Thank you. You literally just saved me from a horrible night's sleep.
Well Done Sir ! This Is Awesome Presentation !!!
Your videos are amazing and so useful. I've been watching, but am in need of something a little different, namely, our forced-air system was badly installed. I'm told we have insufficient return air and that we need to improve our ductwork. Do you have, or can you make a video that would address some of the common issues found in a poorly installed system? We're in a townhouse and our middle floor never gets enough heat or cool, it's an inadequate flow and when it is scorching hot even the areas that usually get cooled are nearly impossible to cool. It's an old house and we definitely have insulation issues as well, but the system and how it was installed seems to be our biggest challenge. What would you recommend could be some fixes to improve it? Thanks so much!
Thanks Leroy. Much appreciated my friend. 👍🏽🙏🏽
Like most of the time, we just see far and not close to us!!! It’s really our “windows” where we have to see first hehehe, thanks for your great videos, God bless you and your family and business.
always enjoy your shows,,, they explain these things to me so I can understand them. Thanks so much!
High forecasted to be 113 in Sacramento
