Half the time when you find something too expensive they just choose to wait until it dies anyways. I have a blower motor that has a little bit of oil in the blower compartment for 3 years now. ...

I used to see them on Carrier. Never on anything else.

Which team did UT lose to that day?

I have a Canon printer and plugs into cigarette lighter with an inverter.

LOL. You obviously do not know enough or it would be working right now. I wish you good luck.

Sounds like a disaster. I'm assuming its an inverter as its a 4 headed machine, so i'm not sure why trying to troubleshoot using pressures does anything and the manufacturer should know that. You...

I had a 10 year old Lennox unit last week that needed the G-signal as well .

I've never had an issue with one that the common wire being hooked up didn't fix. When I install them, I hook it up no matter what. I've never removed a Nest for any reason as I've never had a...

If you're in the business and access to wholesale pricing. Why screw around with a motor? Just put in a better furnace, the price difference isn't really that much in the grand scheme of things.

I was told by a trailer manufacturer its to dilute the effects of off gassing of formaldehyde used in manufacturing of the trailer.

Or 20x20=400 x 2 = 800 cfm. Double the square inches and that is the amount of cfm it can handle Same thing you said, just another way. I always like to bump it up the next size on returns.

71 hrs. I remember my first part time job.

I really have no idea what your other thread was about. But side work is frowned upon on this site. No matter how good a job you do or follow every code to the "T". Its still a "hack" and I...

I've got a 2 speed Bryant in my house, hooked up to a Trane variable speed gas furnace with a Goodman coil sitting on top of it. Its probably a 16 or 17 seer if there was such a rating for...

Yep. I'd rather change out a 14 seer every 8 years than an 18 seer every 8 years plus the expensive ass repairs in between

That pretty much goes without saying. First of all, tenants don't take care of anything, especially a/c. There is a reason why they are tenants. They won't change their filters causing variable...

Hopefully your tenants will take care of it and you'll have maintenance performed on it regularly or it will turn into an expensive turdbox real fast.

Just hook up a separate wire to the * terminal. Tell it what it is supposed to do in the setup and it will work fine. Done it many times. The Nest works fine. I've installed over a hundred with...

Why would anybody spend $50 on an old piece of crap condenser? Its a Trane so it's aluminum most likely. I'll bet that guy was happy as hell considering its probably worth $5 or less. It would...

I'd focus on getting away from installs and start learning service. Installing everyday is fine for a young man, but as you get older, it will hurt more and more. Warranty companies won't deal...

I didn't read anywhere that said there was an issue with lost air unless you're talking about by not having a Ptrap That amount of air is insignificant. Not sure how much air is carried though a...

5 amps isn't anything. Up til about 7 years ago around here, they'd let it pass if you were 5 over since you can't always match up the exact amps depending on the breaker size since they come in 10...

The breaker is very minor. 5 amps over isn't anything. If it was 20 or 30 amps. I'd worry. They used to let 5 amps slide, at least locally

I didn't say all things. Just most things. A failed compressor or reversing valve isn't routine. In 15 years I've seen as many failed reversing valves as the fingers on my right hand. ...

I'll agree with you on a training thing he needs to explain why rather than just condemn it and move on. I've been guilty of training people and moving too fast over things as you get in a hurry.

Bunch of haters on here. I know this is hard to believe, but we are not saving lives here. Most of what we do is fairly routine and easy after a while. It doesn't take an incredible amount of...

I see that all the time where they will install a pan just under the coil and leave 2 ft of air handler exposed. I saw one this last summer where they installed a water heater pan under the coil. ...

I think that if you point out the issue to him without coming off like a jilted lover, he might listen. I went to eat at a restaurant a few years ago and saw a flue stack beside an economizer on a...

If they can't take that light hearted of a teasing. They don't need to be around.

I've been in many attics in central Texas with spray foam. While they are significantly cooler in a Texas summer than an attic with no spray foam. They are far from conditioned and return running...

I like to match wire colors. If the colors don't match. I try to color coordinate them with other wires that I think would look nice together.

Its very irresponsible and illegal in the state of Texas to handle a loaded firearm while under the influence. You might want to remove that comment from this post.

I've got one that still has trouble wiring a float switch in and we put one on every changeout. I like mine wired between red then hook the other side up to the red to the thermostat. I want it...

Why would you buy 2 vans? Do you have an employee? I sure wouldn't buy a new one of anything. Just find yourself a decent used van and drive that until you get the ball rolling. What if you...

Sounds like what the guy I used to work for would do.

I still wouldn't buy a $30k rig. My guys drive used trucks I bought with cash. The most expensive one is $8000. I bought a used Silverado for myself with 13K miles on it. I'm about to start...

I don't know much about the engines. But I'd be inclined to go with the larger engine so it doesn't turn into a gutless POS that gets tore up due to lack of power. Just curious as to your...

They can't drip too much oil or have too much body damage either

The first mistake a new company makes is they go buy an expensive rig and take out a bunch of loans. My first truck was a 2001 2500 Chevy Silverado. I gave it to my installer and bought a 1500...

Mind your own business and do your job. Don't start ratting people out, it will take care of itself. Being incompetent isn't a crime. Maybe they are just too lazy to take the time to...

I personally just buy the R22 txv and put it on there. Leave the 410 one in a box beside the air handler. It will probably take less time to change the txv than screwing around with a powerhead...

I probably wouldn't have let them split it 50/50. But given them a reduced rate as there is some diagnostic time included in there. I definitely wouldn't have laughed. Just told them we can...

I don't advertise it and won't do it. I'll tell people we will be out tomorrow after about 5pm unless I'm close.

I think TDLR will do something. They will at least approach the hvac company about taking care of the customer. If not, they will do an investigation which will likely result in pretty hefty...

My advice is to ask them nicely to take their equipment back and refund your money or you'll be calling the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. If that doesn't snap them to attention ...

If you are an electrical contractor. Stay in that business. Easier on the body.

You paid for a 16 seer but he gave you an 18 seer for no extra cost. Not sure how that is suspicious. Not sure about Luxaire as it's not a brand carried locally. But the cost of an 18 seer...

Nah It's quieter to vent it out so you don't get busted by prying eyes.

I don't think anybody cares unless you're state licensing board are arseholes. I see used equipment on craigslist all the time.

I guess that's the only way York can get people to buy their junk. Sell on Craigslist. :angel:
