We should open an umbrella and tarp technician school redseal and all
I stopped in there on Monday, seems like everything is falling into place nicely except I don't know where I'm going to work at this point. I should quit and sell umbrellas lol
In Kelowna I saw this, I hope the owner of that building has to have his condenser split and cleaned out one day lol.

Hey guys,
I'm relocating back to Vancouver in a bit here. I'm a 4th year apprentice with grocery store and chiller experience. If you have any leads let me know and I can fire over a resume....
Oddity, I tried pming you to no avail, what's the deal? I wanted to chat you up a bit.
I'm going to agree with everyone else here on the route of training. When I did JARTS it was during the recession, in a year period approximately 250 people went through the program and I think 2...
Don't come to Calgary, we don't want anyone getting into our cornered market.
Actually yea if you relocated you could probably be done and finished your apprenticeship before you say booo.
Weve got a few of them, were also the artic cool rep for our area. They have their own set of characteristics which take some time to get used to but when they run good they run good.
I have heard...
That sounds like some seriously vile stuff!
Does not eliminatepump problems over night, if you have a blocked tube you'll still be retubing. How do you know that all the tubes are clear? x-ray vision? Always let remaining liquid boil out above...
Finished doing some major work on a york screw today can't for the life of me remember the model number but it's the one with the humongous oil sump beside the starter. At any rate I wish I would've...
I have a family friend that works for McQuay out in Vancouver, what did you really want to know about them?
The cost of living against the wage doesn't seem unreasonable at all a two bedroom house where I live now would be anywhere near 1600/month
I was under the impression that in a tandem or dual compressor circuit that you should replace both because whatever affected the compressor that croaked will effect the remaining one, aka acid from...
Lots of good stuff on this post guys. The company I work for is pretty good in regards to the tasks they give us and what level of expertise we might have. They could send me or the other apprentice...
It can be a tough go that's for sure, like frozen_ocean said it's worth it in the end if you can stick it through!
All I was getting at is that a lot of this equipment is 100% mission critical and that the employer needs to provide support to their guys. No matter how smart one technician is and no matter how...
What's wrong with the 1587? That's what I have an it works great, it's just the 1507 with meter components built into it. Although it is incredibly expensive.
Is that enough to have a decent quality of life? I guess what I'm getting at is in Alberta Canada we make just about double that per hour but our cost of living is through the roof so you can see...
What does a technician typically get paid in this part of the world?
IMO, moving away from BC and heading to Edmonton or Calgary to do your ticket is the way to go. Tons of work in Alberta and plenty of companies with varying portfolios to learn from
You're absolutely right,
Coincidently enough this topic came up at the office the same day I posted my reply.
Be safe , bring your pressure above the freezing point water then charge with...
Oh I didn't realize this was a specific question from a test. I thought he was looking for generic information.
Well on a watercooled condenser you have a few options. You can drain both vessels and pushpull the gas out through the charging valve on the bottom of the condenser(typically) or the evaporator. In...
Truth is if a company sends you out blind to work on this stuff without any support you probably should find a new place to learn about this equipment. That tells me no the contractor does not value...
I still get the feeling their equipment is engineered by 4 year old students from Nepal that are being told to "do math". I just don't have a lot of patience for machines that use loctite as gaskets...
Ahhh you're finally breaking free from being Tranewashed, get away while you can!
Is the solonoid the NC or NO?
Youre right, I'm being sarcastic. Just pointing out that Trane seems to be taking forever to put out a modern machine is all.
By the time this unit hits the market the oil free will be a thing of the past
Looks like a bench grinder with a paint job, is it same old trane junk that you've gotta glue together with loctite?
Slow season? Winter/Spring is the balls to the wall season for us, we just got done running hour heads off rampent with ECT and I think between the four of us we have 160 units and about 100...
Thanks a bunch, I will try and get in contact with these outfits. Any other suggestions?
Hey so how do I PM someone, so far I dont' see any way of doing that.
I'll give him a shout, doesn't look like theres any easy way to PM people.
I would however my girlfriend is going to school at the university in Kamloops. Kelowna is almost a two hour drive from Kamloops in the best of weather. Any other thoughts or suggestions?
I'm looking to relocate to Kamloops in September, I'm looking to start my first year apprentice in HVACR. Does anyone have any leads on a company that might be looking for someone like me? I'm going...
