thanks for the tips, I'll try that next time.
I got my butt kicked by a KM-1300SAF today. I'm a 6 year hvac tech with no experience on ice machines. The board had been going into a 3 beep alarm. I checked the FS, water inlet solenoid, and check...
Can anybody tell me where I can take an EPA refrigerant certification test in southern Oregon. I've also heard about a certification for brazing refrigerant piping in Oregon that is required for...
I've been in HVAC for 4 years with some low-temp and medium-temp. I graduated from a local tech school in 2007. I'm looking to get a job doing refrigeration. Let me know if any of you are hiring....

Thats funny you bring up the chillchambers engineerdave, those are the only units i've seen hussman cave on. I've never worked for Hussman, but I've worked on chillchambers for them.
I have found the same thing as Manny238, where control wires from compresor compartment have rubbed off enough insulation to ground themselves. I would especially think this if stat wire has been...
You can definitely get work while in school, economy permitting. Just be prepared to take a low wage and be doing grunt work. I worked in the field all through school, but I wasn't always working 40...
How would you guys recommend breaking into this field. I tried to do grocery store refrigeration for 6 months. I was 2 months into tech school, 6 months into the residential a/c field as a helper,...
My company still has work for us, but not near as much as before. I'm nervous, but the last time I took a diferent job I jumped out of the pan and into the fire. I was lucky my boss took me back....
