Can anyone think of a brand of a 80% downflow furnace that is shorter than 28''+ inches deep? I have a closet installation that will not clear the doors. I cannot think of any gas furnace that...

I’m glad I’m not the only one seeing this. Thinking of getting away from Amana do to this alone. Realized it’s in the back of my mind when just tonight I went to inspect one of our furnace...

Hw tank relief valve is not allowed to be plumbed in like that

I did not know you could pipe a relief valve like that. Around here it has to terminate “open” to a drain or floor.

If the hot water coming back was so hot that it could melt the dip tube there would be a serious problem as it would probably melt the pex,pvc, or cpvc hot water supply lines first. If I remember...

Also I think almost every Rheem evaporator coil from 2010 and 2011 I installed is leaking. This is not a exaggeration.

I’ve been putting in Rheem for 20 years as it is what my favorite local supplier sells. Good luck getting a new unit. In fact if you do get a new unit please tell me how in the hell you did!

All of these posts make me never want to visit Washington state.

“there is nothing that is going to happen anyway” 😀

I’m currently on vacation and following these threads as entertainment. I feel like it’s a guilty pleasure. Like one of the “reality” tv shows on discovery or history channel I sometimes...

My mind is blown again... 1300sq with a 3 ton system? Seems way too big Is this a all glass home?

My 2000sq ft home has a two ton condensing unit and cools fine. Couldn’t imagine a 3.5 ton. Maybe the guy should have invested in windows and insulation.

Why did she need a furnace in July?

I'm not following how they want you to charge the system? Beer can cold? Is there a temp they always want the suction line to be? What if the suction line is not "sweating", do they think...

They put that crack rock there for you to prepare you for what you were about to encounter

Roofers only have hammers, flat bars, a little bit of weed, and a cooler of beer. No screwdrivers.

Those Diablo blades are sweet

Looks like homeowner got the motor on Amazon.

It's 95 deg out. Customer wants cooling now. You have 10 more calls after this one. Supply house is half hour away. You get it done. And cost 1/4 of your emergency turbo cap.

I think that's my handwriting with the sharpie marker:grin2:

He even has camel filters:grin2:

I'm definitely a weirdo but I kinda like the smell of new flex duct. It smells kinds like marshmallows or something. Can't quite put my finger on it.
I'm convinced I am now immune to most...

I will take pictures of some stuff sometimes and customers homes so I can show them the problem if they are not able to physically come down the stairs anymore or something like that I always make...

Just watched the contactor video. Not to offend anyone here it's maybe politically incorrect to say but that guy is a retard. Could you imagine the counter guys face when he came in with a model...

I'll bet ya there's granite countertops in the kitchen though, a brand new 65" flat screen on living room wall, and a new car in the driveway.

Bet it works great with all the air slots taped over

The expansion tank below is to push the oil back into the compressor

That's funny. Here we don't need secondary limits but the inspector always asks to see the LWCO

A couple years ago I had a couple I put in a heat pump for. Existing air handler, guy did not want to change it out. Originally it was just strip heat and a condensing unit but condensing unit...

Also where is the LWCO? There not provided built in in the gwa series

Why the strap on stat on supply line?

Then 4 other manufacturers will start making this pex line set and just like csst they will each take there own proprietary fittings and each brand will have its own crimp tool so now ou have to buy...

I read in Ducks Unlimited once to cut a hole in them and mount them to trees in the woods along creeks/marshes. Wood ducks will use them as nest boxes. Always have said Im going to do it but...

Shoot, I don't know how to rotate the picture. It's sideways.

Whole roof is covered in this

I guess I'll be the A-hole that's says I'm kinda impressed.

Yeah you missed that 30 year old thermostatic flu pipe damper in line there. Theres probally no way thats opening up like its supposed to. The gas compant here wants them removed and will red...

Yeah the pic is old and op's boss is a liar or just messing with him. My family and I were at Cabelas once and I took a pic of a giant buck that was mounted. Even the background looked like what...

Looks legit

i always "break" "y" with a float switch That way by the time i get the call if the coil was frozen at least the air handler kept running to help thaw it out and i dont have to wait on thawing it...

I labeled that "y" a couple years ago when i installed a float switch in the emergency drain pan. The pan was not piped out and had no switch so it must have just been for looks lol. The unit...

Homowner asked me to just "byass" it.

He couldnt pressure test it because he used all his nitrogen with his trickle flow. Actually its brazed so clean with his nitro flow that none of you guys can even tell its brazed:grin2::

There (church members, preacher, whomever) are the ones that let it go that far. It doesnt take a rocket scientist to realize when something doesnt look right. Ive worked in lots of churches...

Maybe they could have just clamped that condensing units electrical disconect right to the gas meter and vented the gas meter next to the compressor contactor

Yeah that pic is old

Actually i think in the home in question i set it up so it would have to "drop" about 1.5 deg before it switched heat pump off and turned heat strips on. The home was newer construction i do not...

I saw this just this winter. I was not even there do to that "problem" though, i just noticed and tried to correct it. What i did was put on a thermostat from pro iaq that utilizes a duel fuel...

150 lbs r-22 thats like 1500.00 dollars plus

Why do you still use series 100 circulators when you can use a cartridge for half the cost and no maintenance. Nice pretty boiler and install but the boiler is going o be a oily mess in 5 years...
