You are pretty adamant on blaming another tech for "breaking" a compressor and timing it perfectly to be out of warranty. I highly doubt the tech sabotaged the system (although I have seen it done)....

You really need to find a reputable contractor in your area to get this straightened away. Obviously you have problems. If you can't get it resolved, call Goodman yourself and tell them what is...

So, you already knew the rules but asked anyway? That is a similar thought process to installing your own system.

:couchhide:

I completely agree with this post. At least this way you will know for sure and you will gain some peace of mind. If you think the first guy is a bit shady and he installs the new condensing unit...

So, what did the installing contractor say? You must have called them by now.

I believe that you may be correct sir... I was just wondering if he would admit it here. :grin2:

I repeat: Call the company that did the "new install."

LOL. Guess you saw his other posts in the wrong forum too huh?

Yes, call the company that installed it and have them come back out.

PS- Please turn off the CAPS lock on your keyboard.:cheers:

You seem to be very concerned about SC and SH but you didn't mention in your post what the problem is that you are having with the system. You have had 3 techs out in the last year you say. Why?

You keep saying where your thermostat is set. Do you have a thermometer where you can actually measure the actual temperatures in the rooms? I also live in Florida and couldn't imagine setting my...

LOL, I'm old too. Grew up on The Blue Ribbon.

OK, I've researched it further and yes, that is definitely a Budweiser.

The fourth picture seems to ring a bell.:grin2:

I have seen most of these brands doing service in the field and am not sure if it is regional or not.

I live in Florida and everyone seems to be in the A/C all of the time.

Most people seem to be between the ages of 100 to 150 years old and are always in my way when they are driving their air...

Have you had a load calculation done by any of the contractors that have been involved? Also, have the other problems been addressed? ie: you mentioned that the upstairs doesn't cool very well and...

So, what was the outcome? What did #3 do to solve your issue? It's kinda like reading a novel and the last page is missing.:whistle:

I would just go ahead and call a pro out to have a look before some damage is done to any of the components. Seriously, it could be a bunch of different things that are wrong.

LOL!!!!!

Did you say Brevard?

Seriously????? :whistle:

Don't ever be afraid to call another tech FROM THE JOBSITE that is why we carry cell phones. It is so much easier to explain it when you are looking at it. A good, more experienced tech will...

BINGO

I would also recommend getting a few more estimates and seeing what others have to offer. As stated, the contractor and install can be and is in many cases more important than the brand. You may...

Your Carrier served you well for 14 years. If I were you, I would get some quotes on a complete system change out and not pour anymore money into the old system. You can save a lot of money on your...

LOL, excellent question!

You said that they replaced the fan motor already and it is still making the same noise? Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. From afar I tend to agree with the overcharge guess.

What else have...

Simply put: Yes. LOL. I have found good employment since the previous post. :grin2:

If anyone happens to be looking for a talented, skilled and experienced HVAC tech in the Brevard County area, I am looking for a good employer. Unfortunately I have made a decision to part ways with...

I am very familiar with the Maytag product line as we only install that brand and am a huge fan as well. The M1200 is awesome. As long as the install is correct you won't know it is running. The...

Yeah, I find myself getting my news on-line to avoid the ratings craving, sensationalizing talking heads.

I had knee surgery to remove arthritis from my knee almost 3 weeks ago. I was told to go back to work with no restrictions after only 3 days. So, I did.

Unfortunately, this caused major problems...

I understand the potential seriousness of the swine flu, but our wonderful local media has already turned it into a circus. The news is not longer the news but an entertainment show. I'm sure that...

Sunny and 82 here in Florida...Perfect service call weather. I'm dreading the summer rains which are inevitable.

I am really curious how the current economy has effected those of us around the country. Here in East Central Florida our service calls are up and new system sales and condensing unit change outs...

Although I own my entire supply of tools, the company that I work for would never allow a truck to be on the road without all of the proper, quality equip. and tools. Proper tools and equip are part...

I earned a bachelors degree and a masters degree and soon decided that I didn't want to sit at a desk for the rest of my life. I was always fascinated by physics and science. HVAC was the way to go...

Brannigan's in Southington, CT has the best ribs I have ever had...Now that I live in Central Florida, I'm still looking.

I swear by my TIF ZX-1 hand held heated pentode detector. Does everything I need and is accurate.

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I really appreciate it.

After 7 years in the field as a service tech, I have finally decided to get my NATE Certification. I have purchased the DeWalt HVAC Certification Exam Guide which is full of practice tests and other...

The statement, "You are lucky to even have a job right now" is valid in our current economic state.

I have been in a van for 6 years now and am just starting to earn what I am worth. When I first...

Point taken and agreed Airmechanical, that time delay needs to be tweaked to the proper length and can be done with experience and seasoning. I regularly use the time delay for customers who...

Personally I am a firm believer in the heat pump. Of course, I live in central Florida where we see the mid to upper 20's a few times a year. As compared to electric heat the economics are a no...

I always replace the line set unless in cannot be done. 90% can be replaced and for the other 10%, I have personally never encountered a problem as long as the correct service procedures are used.
