Yep I agree, this time Steve I think you might have done more harm than good you definitely don't fix that unit. The pressures did not look good and yes before putting in gas as you call it go look at what you have for an air handler unit? And if that's the problem . Don't take the job if you do not want to fix the problem and putting in "gas" didn't fix this problem.
I was thinking maybe the liquid line is only 5/16 and reducing the refrigerant flow to the evaporator. Tried to see but could tell by the video. Will you return to follow up and check what’s in the attic when it’s cooler?
As Ted would say, "another gas and go"! LOL! I think calling the installer back could give the old girl a whole lot more headaches! Maybe reaching out to Coleman and see if there's a reputable Coleman tech in her area? Hackers just be hackers! You just get the feeling if the guy comes back he's gonna get her for a lot more money!
That's due to the SEER rating. Southwest and southeast required 14 minimum, other parts of the country were only 13. That has now been bumped to 15 and 14, respectively. I believe they can continue to install existing stock of the prior minimum though. I think Steve has installed a few 13 SEER units this year because the supply house still had them in stock, even though the minimum is now 14.
U are doing a good job helping her out but that previous tech that took advantage of that lady should not be in the hvac trade and a mokey could have done better than that person did
My HVAC mentor has a 1996 Coleman Evcon unit that still works. I’ve done maintenance and topped off R-22 in it, but it still runs. This was before Johnson Controls took ownership and ruined everything.
Johnson Controls was contracted by Duluth Public Schools to design what became their facilities "Red Plan". Google ISD-709 Red Plan if you want to read about a s*** show!

I have a Goodman; no issues. I do get her regarding that thermostat. Too complex. A simple round Honeywell with the mercury contacts works the best. We had a lux thermostat in an outbuilding that the contact points froze together and the furnace ran the temperature past 100 degrees before the points finally opened. Replaced it with a used Honeywell round and it's been fine.
You can’t bash someone else when u just start pumping pounds of refrigerant like that without even taking a look at the indoor unit man. 😂 Love ya Steve but cmon man quit being lazy
Yeah not what the customer wants to hear especially older seniors - they already feel like shit enough. Typical Steve move though. He’s always gotta stress the customer out and make them believe the job is way harder then it is or they got a shit show going on - basically anything he didn’t touch first or install first is a piece of shit lol. Don’t let him fool you he goes in gets the customer all worked up when half the jobs are typical easy fixes and then charges them up the ass after he makes sure they are real stressed and worried about how bad and tough of a job it’s going to be to fix. He does the same on a flippin toilet install like it’s the end of the world.
I don’t understand that you use someone else to install a new system and it’s not working but yet you call Steve to fix it since you didn’t feel comfortable with the other guy. Why didn’t you just call Steve in the first place to put your system in.
Looks like your bad comments about Coleman being junk are just a personal opinion. Yes Coleman AC units are budget but they get Great reviews and also have a top notch warranty that's hard to beat. Your just paying for the name on a lot of your so called overpriced big name brands. Now that's 'my' personal opinion.
Bad mouthing coleman U don't even know if the filter is clean. Fan speed is set right I don't even know where the system is... Slasher. Coleman is what im about to put into my house Been doing this also since 1996 Rmp 4696 phila

It makes me furious when hack installers make their way to the elderly. It's sad.
It's a damn shame that some hacks take advantage of people.

@@glennschlorf1285 How do you know she has any children?
Hey buddy, before you give it a how you doing, is good practice to go upstairs and check if he replaced the air handler to match the system up.

definitely!!! For someone who is so quick to dog anothers, you would think he would be a more thorough tech
Hi Steve from Ocean View, VA. Absolutely love your videos and your common sense way of doing business. All the best to you and Molly.
Maybe it will act as a BBQ grill also. It's a Coleman!
lol
That is a York or as you say and I totally agree a piece of York Colman York Johnson controls ect
York died when Johnson controls switched to microchannel. They also moved to condenser production Mexico a few years back. Definitely doesn’t help.
Steve, when are you going to post another real man cooking video. 👍
Subcool is way too high. Flooding the condenser. They probably never even mounted the bulb.
When replacing a condenser what brands do you recommend steve
Who installed this unit? Mikey Profit Pipes?
I don't see his sticker he puts it on everything.
No, she said it was a colored guy 😂
@@shawnwhite3662 colored Mexican guy
@@shawnwhite3662my grandma used to say that and I’d cringe every time.
Dumb question but what makes the Colman any worse than the rest of the cheap ones out there?
Maybe flippin fluffy got in there and messed with the TXV!

Looks like an airflow problem…and now overcharged tooo
Install prohibited in the southwest and southeast? I'm in Georgia, there are plenty of Coleman units around here. Especially in trailers.

it looks like a parc restriction to me not low on refrigerant, i would say at the filter drier
Every time I see a York or Coleman I shudder 😮
1:47 sounded like an opening for a thermostat sale to me.
This year I haven't turn on my a/c and don't miss it.

Hi Steve I helped an ac technician repair my ac unit but however the ac unit was too old and had to get replaced. Nice video I like it.
Colman needs to stick with camping equipment.
🤣I used to say the same thing before I retired a few years ago.
Steve you got to embrace the technology lol
U are doing a good job helping her out but that previous tech that took advantage of that lady should not be in the hvac trade and a mokey could have done better than that person did
Embrace the technology
So, did you look for the leak or find it.
I keep my boat at Mobie Dicks Marina always fun when you know where he is
Got a leakuh or they never added additional charge
Micro-Channel........Embrace the leaks!!

@@josephlivoti8143 i very much appreciate this information
Steve what do you think about a luxarie unit?
Luxaire coleman its all york
@@feddersairdude really
luxair is also york
@@makosharkcnc7730 yes. I’m not a fan of Yorks equipment because of the micro-channel coils that always leak.
What Color was the fella?
😂😂😂😂
Yeah what color was he....😡😡😂😂
You know
Yes!
White
Never knew Coleman made a/c until now, she got ripped off.
If yall HAD to pick a york or a Goodman which one would u choose ??
I have a Goodman; no issues. I do get her regarding that thermostat. Too complex. A simple round Honeywell with the mercury contacts works the best. We had a lux thermostat in an outbuilding that the contact points froze together and the furnace ran the temperature past 100 degrees before the points finally opened.

Goodman
A Carrier or a Bryant. LOLOL
Goodman
Anyone else like the video before watching it?
Steven she should of called you frist and save some money sinsiors get takin by dishonest persons
Howdy Steve and Miss Molly
They make sleeping bags 😂
You can’t bash someone else when u just start pumping pounds of refrigerant like that without even taking a look at the indoor unit man. 😂
Love ya Steve but cmon man quit being lazy
Agree don't take the job if you don't want to fix the problem just walk away Steve
Coleman, don't they make camping stoves, maybe its the cheap lineup from Johnstone like Evcon.
New trend for the old well known brands is to sell their name out to random junk.
just name slapped on It is a York by Johnson controls
@@looking_33 like zenith rca sylvania maytag philco crosly etc
Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again ya’ll. 👍👍
Wonder what the inside unit looks like
"Hacks, bring you stacks.
Hello Steve!
You get what you pay for, you ever hear that saying.
Looks nice just not installed the best
Micro Channel junk! Fine for Car Radiators not for HP 410A
coleman ac are for trailers
its a flippin cheepie 👍😂😂😂
Yeah, we get it. It's cheap and it's junk and a junker, and a Coleman, and it's junk, and it's a cheap ass system.

So, is Steve saying that he likes Coleman or hates Coleman?
the tents and gear are nice
What brand of guages are those? What program?
They are the Sporlan wireless temp and pressure probes and it runs off the Sporlan app
Coleman A/C manufactured in Feb. 2022
She’s a leaka!
What COLOR was the fella??
not sure about any color all i know is the system is a shit install
@@stevenlavimoniere absolutely was…
Poor woman
You know
I never even heard of that system.... Must be junk cheap piece of crap.
Coleman is a pile of York !
more like pile of trailer trash

Steve doesn't generally do new installs. Too much work for a one-man operation, especially when getting on in years.
Why put salt in the wound by calling the installer back? She knew they were idiots.
Nobodys installing nothing at my mom's house unless they check with me first!
Where’s the leak. At least it’s quiet
I thought they only made camping equipment.
They also slap their name on pieces of York
They have their name on really cheapo bottom of the line camping trailers as well.
they don,t make it
He was a colored fella…..🙄🙄🙄
York and Coleman which are made by the same company are good units. I think the installer was incompetent.
York? Pile of ...
Stay away.
York is no good
Only hacks sell these garbage units
Coleman.....lol...chinese crap, these days. Used to be good company, but never knew they had hvac systems.
Heyyy

It’s a York mama
The installer was so cheap he probably didn't add any 410 at all.
