    Like you said it probably ran like this for years. I'm sure it wasn't always freezing up. Something had to change in order for it to freeze. I'm thinking dirty condenser. It's a mismatched system for sure. But I would of cleaned the condenser to try and bring the subcooling down and raise the superheat. It's a bad install but you could of made it better by cleaning the condenser.

    They went a half ton the wrong way. You could change the evaporator, but just as cost effective and easier to just change the condenser. You knew it too, you have been there, done that. I imagine most would have not even checked for that. Well we all know that you know your stuff. Good call

    Up here in the Sw Va mountains we’ve went from remotely needing cooling back to full blown heat mode. Since I heat by hydronic wood fired and I ran out of wood I’ll have to freeze it out till the rain clears and I can cut some wood. Great heat if lived in a normal climate region lol

    Gotta love those Filtrete filters that are slightly bigger than everyone else’s and don’t fit. It was always fun explaining to customers why their ridiculously expensive filter didn’t fit a “standard” rack or grille

  • @keithsac2542
    @keithsac2542 Месяц назад +5

    I would check air flow. The return air is too small and the filter was being sucked into the grill. I bet the total external static pressure is really high. I would check the AHRI matchups to see the actual btu's of the 3 1/2 ton condenser . Also couldn't tell what type of metering device it had.

    The heat exchange is only as good as the size of the coil in which the heat is exchanged.

    I was going to do a brand new but costumer thiught I was too high on my bid. The costumer called us because he was having issues with his system and couldn't get the original installer come to find out the condenser is 3.5 and inside coil is only a 2 ton.

  • @John-dp3ln
    @John-dp3ln Месяц назад +3

    that restrictive filter is making issue even worse. Need 1600 cfm over indoor coil, now way through that filter. With an unlimited budget, replacing condenser right thing to do but who has that sort of money now a days. Hope you can work up a more cost effective fix.

    Can you upgrade the coil to 3.5 ton instead of replacing the condenser with a 3ton unit. Would that be more cost effective?? Good info 👍

    I’m currently working for big private company in Virginia and I swear I don’t like they way they work with HVAC systems, they keep push the customer to replace the system instead fixing it, and quotes for fixing it really high also pay technician really cheap 😂 I got stuck with them 2 more years then I might go with different company

    Curtis has become the leave a estimate man.,..... The unit was workable enough to dirty the coil, the filter.. No sense looking for a leak, as the tools just are not reliable and anyone who does not clean their coils yearly, and take the time to replace the filters deserve a replacement......... So, leave an estimate to replace........So, if you own your own business, you can just say no...... right.
