    I couldn't believe what I was seeing, that unit is a total wreck. I think I would have walked away and told them it needs replacing. Good on you for taking it on and getting it going again. Recently discovered your channel, always an interesting watch from here in the UK.

    These are the type of customers you walk away from. Regardless of the cost and availability, that’s a unit replacement or nothing. Literally quote it, get the autograph and the check, order the equipment. Once that’s agreed upon, get them running until the equipment ships.

    Young man! You need to learn how to walk away! Let this be someone’s else’s problem. You did such a good job you got a Mistress now. That customer going to keep calling you for that crap

      It's probably the customer who doesn't want to pay for a proper fix or repair. Those condenser coils brand new are at least 5k each.

  • @sherwinalvarez7365
    @sherwinalvarez7365 2 года назад +2

    OK you got your #GDT (God Dam Technician) card on this one. I would have walked away. This video taught me to think simple and make a plan. 20 minute video but looked like 6-8 hrs work. All that withoutnyour tool set up. I hate when your van gets broken into. Had it happen once. I make offerings to the HVAC Gods that it doesn't happen again.
