😆 no doubt. Didn't give them an option, added the contactor, and charged them for it. I know this customer, if fixed, they ain't worried about it. Try to always be one step ahead. You know the deal. Thanks, Subcool!
I like how they VFD the blower motor but have a fixed compressor to save power. Here in NZ we run variable speed compressors and blowers due to load and they don't use others brand of VFD's to do it. Temperzone make most of the package units here and are reverse cycle for heating until they get refrigerant logged in the outdoor coil.....🤣🤣🤣
Florida knocks a lot of these VFDs out, its almost like you should never quote them anymore, they always get declined. Ive replaced one before though, not hard, just had to have fun with ABB lol
Carrier has a bulletin about installing the contactor and changing the fuses(fuses need to be replaced with correct size to match the motor). The unit's wiring schematic/diagram shows both the VFD wiring and the non-VFD blower wiring.
I’ve never quite seen a junction box for a capacitor. Gives new meaning to cap in a box
😆 I've seen these guys and have video on some sketchy shit they've done. That was above and beyond what I've seen previously 😆. Thanks Curtis
That unit probably runs 100% most of the time anyways in a restaurant. 👍 Good job pushing in the contactor too 🤣💪👊

Haha just saw the end of video… really good catch. A lot of people would have left that and not cared or realized
Yeah, I honestly didn't think about it right away, but luckily caught it. Thanks Ryan
Nice work Steve. Thank you for the knowledge.
Thanks Steven.

Thanks Stephen.

If they were in a different location, they might last longer. No one replaces here either unless their under warranty.
@@EverythingHVACR I never understood why they put it in the blower section, I get to keep it cool but man it does get hella moist in there...
If it’s a furnace, the fan won’t turn on with a call for heat… the gray wire on that VFD board will turn the fan on for heat and cool
Almost missed it myself

Thanks JR
Bumping contacters is common practice. As long as you are safe about it. Unless its a wye delta starter
😆. You gotta know what contactor you're bumping
Great job Steve
Thanks Jr
Great information video thanks
Thanks East Coast
I’m stealing that capacitor idea 😂
😆 it's all you, bro 🤣
You da man!
I'm something 😆. Thanks, r aeronca!
👍👍👍
0:47 is comedy gold
In my experience it's 2 weeks to a month later that drive will trip again.
Ohh, no doubt that's why I went ahead and bypassed it, not worth a call back.
