lol. On an NUGK no less.

Damn. Even the old Heils I find in 'hood basements around here don't usually look *that* gross.

The week before last I had to get a Cosmogas Embassy OneX condensing boiler/domestic hot water package going.

Nobody in the immediate area (southeastern WI/northern IL) sells stuff for them and...

Just changed mine out. It had *three* cracks in it.

All like this. None were dripping, but all were wet.

At least it's...

Heh. Carrier SX. Good riddance to that.

Nice installs. I could never do one that well...which is why I'm service ;)

Honeywell control by Salvador Dali.

Reminds me of a burned out unit I found on the roof of a Greek restaurant. Massive rollout due to bad Hx, set unit on fire, everything destroyed.

'Gus'...

The shop I work for is a Carrier FA dealer. We occasionally install Day and Night (cheap Carrier) or very occasionally Goodman for a cheap job. Boilers are generally Burnham/New Yorker or...

If I ever move to a part of the country where everything is in a crawl or attic, I'm finding a new line of work.

I've been on a few calls where our utility company had red-tagged and shut-down a furnace due to CO. Apparently their guys carry analyzers on the trucks, because they always have the CO ppm and...

If I had a tripped breaker, I'd have immediately checked the cap just to rule it out.

Of course we run warranty calls after hours. Also, run calls to fix stuff the installers botched. Such as saturday two weeks ago when I had to fix some work our resident channellock bandit did on...

Heh heh. Good old Carrier. Had one of those myself once. The question is, did it come from the factory like that or did it happen when some dope changed the inducer.

I've got one almost as good. Been in a house where a (since out of business due to owner's unexpected death) company vented a 80% furnace and natural draft water heater in PVC. Out the wall like a...

I just did a search to look into this. I've had two leakers so far this winter...one was cracked and one was not. I think some may just be getting warped and not having the gasket seal properly. ...

Huh. Interesting. The Lennox reps in this area didn't seem to know what was building up in these things when we pressed them about it. They just said 'replace the collectors and it'll be fine'. ...

These collectors have an annoying issue where they plug up with a white substance - looks like by-products of combustion to me, but I don't know. We just replace the collectors because they'll just...

LOL.

**** trailers and the Nordynes they rolled in on.

I had a similarly aged Goodman 80% doing the same thing a while back. The board was dropping out power to the inducer then starting it back up. Same clickety relay too.

The new board that...

I hope I'm not the only one who expected a giant cloud of R22 to come shooting out when he cut that line.

Yeah, get used to 58-series Carriers with bad secondaries if you do any kind of resi work ever, gmoliver. You'll get a lot of them. I work at a Carrier...

The usual amount is 'higher PPM than my TPI is capable of reading'.

Not quite 1 year old Carrier single-stage 80-percenter, 66k BTU. Can't recall the model and serial. The house is an older 1100 sq. ft. ranch with a single return in the hall and two more in...

Mopar has been troubled since forever. Fiat can't do anything to make them worse.



The Transit and the Dodge are both Sprinter sized. Hardly small.

I for one welcome our new European...

Ah. Just curious. I have some relatives in Crestview and their neighbor has a service van in the driveway.

Crestview?
