I agree with the posts here that say be honest upfront. Most places do a background check,some do them every year.

Don't know about refer pay in the carolinas, but in atlanta it for some reason is a bit lower in many cases than hvac, unless in the union.
I assume they have the mobile techs take care of multiple buildings for demand repair calls?
If they are relatively close together, that would be OK I guess. If spread out in a metro area, don't...
Anyone from JLL here in Atlanta? Heard they have a good sized prescence,but have never run across anyone.
I'm pretty sure the pack will beat Atlanta.....
Oh , and the bears will lead in the second quarter 14-0.
Don't ask me how I know these things......
Fantastic amount of support, great job talkers!
I'd suggest you work for someone for a couple/few years. Valuable experience that will hopefully show you what works and what does not.
Sorry to hear about your job loss, hope you find something soon.
Heard that the job market is better in TX than many places,so at least that is in your favor.
Yeah, y'all think it's funny, but I'm missing a tire, and that looks a lot like it! What's that guys name?
Don't want to be negative, but cleveland is not a good move economically. If you don't have to go there,I wouldn't.

My experience is similar to 56 and others- each branch is distinct in that it all depends on upper management as to how you will be treated.
If you can talk to people that work in/out of a...
They work well water cooled.Have not seen a successful air cooled.Anyone else?
Haven't had to put a zero in on ours, they were installed last spring.
Hey Thanks everyone for all the comments and info. That ecm does sound like(no pun intended) the way to go for quiet operation,huge plus.
This really helps in buying furnaces for my house.
Thanks rep
Haven't dealt with a lot of resi furnaces,as my experience is commercial industrial.
Currently have a payne gas and ac which have performed well;realise they are part of intercity so assume all...
Whats a good way to size equipment when installing seperate units for a two story house that has an open stairwell? 1st floor and 2nd will have seperate units.
Both heat loss and gain will be...
Don't know why any legit company would try this on a service tech.As others have mentioned, they are unenforceable and would never make it to court.
That's an indicator that they may be difficult to...
Have that where I'm at,along with heat exchangers.
The current way it's staged now per the engineer, is the free cooling (through the chillers) is used within about a 5 deg band based on OD temp and...
The outdoor enthalpy was higher than indoor as noted,so this should have been in mechanical cooling.
I used rh so it would be easier to follow,as most use that as a reference.
Yes they are comparing OD enthalpy with ID enthalpy for the economizer- which on paper is great -
But when it's above 90% rh outdoors(fog!) it's downright silly to bring that very wet air inside as...
Am in a new building,first economizing season.This sequence of operation utilizes AHU's set up for VAV with OD,Exhaust and RA dampers and the engineer is using BTU/LBs enthalpy for economizing ....
Worked for an engineering firm doing new and retro commissioning,was extremely enjoyable but didn't care for the constant travel out of town.
Retro was more fun than new usually.
Wouldn't mind...
Nothing wrong as a temporary fix.
Looks like it belongs there.
If you have the skills, would recommend going the commercial route rather then resi.
Wow that guy has some high end tools,hopefully our company will open up the wallet and upgrade now that they have seen what's out there.
I've used a bacharach and a UEI,no complaints -the bacharach is the cadillac and the uei is a ford pinto,but they worked.
Haven't had the chance to try a fireye,but like their controls.
Too...
Sorry to hear that. Have you mined all the usual places like the wholesale houses to find out about other opportunities?
Good Luck
What do you mean by waste water?
They will need to have the refrigerant recovered and properly disposed of by a certified technician,otherwise you risk big fines.
If they are on small reach in cases,maybe you can sell the whole...
I have not had to change one in about 4 years,but the last one I did was a major pia.
What worked best to get it out of that hole was to use a masonry bit on my drill at a low speed ,after getting...
Good looking install/retro Rob.
So which float did you end up using?
That does sound low,are you in residential and is the economy poor in the area you work ?
Typically commercial and industrial hvacr will pay more than residential.
Like ZX1 tif leak detector ,and jb vac pumps.
When you said snake I thought at first a politician stopped by ....:D
Good Stuff
Yes, the name pit bull is generically applied to fighting dogs.
This is from the american humane society facts sheet on dog bites:
"The pit bull is a type of dog bred for fighting, not a specific...
#1 Your statement contradicts itself.
It shouldn't matter what breed of dog he tortured and killed for years on end.
#2 You are also very wrong about the breed. It is the OWNER and...
If the union scale pays $53/hr they must be billing the customer at like $125!

Thats probably pretty close.I'd assume in the carribean,where everything is expensive,labor would follow.
Will be interesting to see the fan reaction at the various places the eagles play.
That was a tough day,but sounds kind of scenic. Sure the boss appreciates your getting it done.
I assume the area of TX you are in has low humidity? If so, can probably get away with short run times.
Here in GA, we like long run times,especially this summer,which has been humid.On a hot day...
If you work that much, you won't have time for a daily fix of hvactalk.You need to readjust priorities....:D
Never ran it in this application, but did run lines for large tonnage AC in pvc, was not fun mainly because it required two 90Deg els on each end.
Oversized the pvc pipe considerably to give enough...
What s the model number for the wattsmaster?
What safeties do you have that do not require manual reset?
If it were me, would go with the three ton, especially since it's 2 stage and upstairs.
You could try that law firm that represents husbands/fathers in divorce-cordell and cordell in atlanta.I've not used them, so can't provide any info.
I have worked both, and supermarket usually pays better and has a lot of OT,especially of you're the lucky guy on call.
Doesn't seem to be the case in Atlanta though;for some odd reason reefers...
