I really like how all the youtube channels teaching this trade are all interconnected and all agree on the important stuff. This channel, Ty, HVAC School, that compressor guy, all these people reference each other and respect each other. So nice to see.
Idk how I got to an HVAC repair channel, but this was one of the most interesting videos I’ve seen on YT.
As an EE it baffles me that all the boards, connectors, etc etc are basically open to the elements in all these units.
I like how you do diagnostics. It seems like a methodical and logical process. (I am an industrial electrician in Australia) The only comment I have is that almost every AC, generator or any other machine I have seen from the USA very rarely has neat wiring. In many of the machines I have worked on, even when brand new, the wiring looks like a bird's nest. I like having neat control wiring but I am not over the top with it. Machines from the US, much like the AC units we saw in this video, look like they have had a school kid on work experience wiring up the machines. Rarely did I see cable numbering either.
Super professional. What a treat watching an expert in his craft.. Super professional. What a treat watching an expert in his craft..
FYI, You need to watch out for when using 407C. Most of the time when charging or evacuating a system with 407c, it creates a static charge on the hose. We have fried a number of scales because or that. So we always have a jumper wire across the hose. For context, we build custom units. So sometimes the system may be disconnected from ground and power when we do this.
I believe the leak on the compressor isn’t a soft plug. I believe it is a weld where the windings are held in place there should be 3 of them
I once had an old copland scroll leak in the same exact spot.. But only once in years of doing this trade. The company I work for still uses R22 but has also been using 407c for a few years. It works good on straight ACs but has problems with heat pumps sometimes. In the last year we start using Bluon TDX20 (R458A) and personally I really like it alot. Would recommend it to anyone looking for R22 replacement.
Customer is very lucky today I suspect. Everything was down, but you know the systems well enough, and the care you take to investigate everything lets you get things up and running .. well, limping... Further, even the worst problems are the least bad versions of them. Saved from tainted oil by the last whisp of pressure in the system, perhaps even a single week latter it would have not had that bit of grace.
#15 rosebud is an "all-in-one" tip. I use that thing from 1/4" to 1-1/8". Love that thing.
Thanks for your comments on 407C! The only reason I got my federal certs is that I'm an old retired oil/gas/power gen guy, and my local company put the double-rectified screws to me on a repair of one of my residential systems. They lost my R22 charge cutting out the drier, and replaced it with R407C and didn't do ANYTHING about oil. Needless to say I had a mess on my hands. The thing worked, but the evaporator was always flooded with oil and it really killed the heat transfer properties. A lot of money for poor performance.
Yo man, you have been a true mentor to me and I appreciate it. I don't do AC work normally but wanted to tell you that I really appreciate you. I have a hard time keeping up with my own work and billing but watching you run a company with techs and still finding time to make these videos to help out others is truly inspiring. Thanks brother.
I had found a leak on a Carlyle Comp when I started. Also i recently did a evap and dual condenser cleaning on an old ICP 5 ton pulled the top off they way you showed us in all your videos, thanks again Chris.
taking your time calmly is solid advice for any trade. in the general maintenance world sometimes you have supervisors breathing down your neck. i always brush them off basically and work like i normally do. the simple checks you do every single time, like checking transformer voltage etc. can save a lot of time if that happens to be the problem.
I been doing this trade 16 years and when I wanna learn more I watch your channel I learned so much about RTU's and R290 systems from you watching you greatly appreciated keep up the good videos
Nice Video. Nice to see you using 407C, as that's also what I have chosen as my replacement for R-22. It seems to work well. And the whole "Glide" thing that has everyone so scared is easy to work with once you understand it. What I'm worried about is performance, and 407C does it. It works well, and gives efficient cooling. No headaches.
God bless the inventors of AC and god bless those that come to fix them or install them...I'm a General Contractor, I've been dealing with them for 30 years...This stuff here is heavy duty, and The guys that repair these systems are a dying breed, literally, we lost 10000 years of experience in the last 20 years... The guys that know what they're doing, like You guys, are true mechanics.
Wanted to say thank you for the videos. They are showing me better and more efficient ways to troubleshoot and diagnose issues.
I have a customer with a manager I call Chicken Little. Any time there's an issue, the sky is falling. At one point, she told me everyone in her department was having issues. I then spent three hours troubleshooting the common server/network points, not finding anything (while fielding calls from the woman). I then finally called another person in the department to get more information, and found out _only one person was having problems_. Apparently, because that one woman had a bad network cable, the entire department was down. I no longer believe anything she says other than as a starting point to talk to other people to find the problem. I get chewed out by the owner, and I chew him out for listening to her at all. She's really good at the business, but she's absolutely terrible with tech.
Best looking air filters I’ve ever seen, maybe a maintenance contract!?!?
