That is some serious artwork right there.

Looks great!

If this is a restaurant, be careful where you place the indoor heads, if you go the ductless route. The blower wheels can get clogged up pretty easily causing flooding when the humidity is high.

If it is the same price, just get a new CRT.

Half that cost is probably shipping.

How were you able to buy the CRT from Greece in the first place?

I find it better to just buy a whole new tool. To replace all the seals in the CRT will take more time than it is worth. Plus it...

I keep getting emails to sell my business (which I am not interested in doing) by a business broker who specializes in HVAC companies. If you can PM me, I can send you his contact info and he will...

Not sure how cold it gets outside where you are, but here is Central Pennsylvania I have no problem putting in the 15 SEER units. It design low here is around 5 degrees.

When I do dual fuel on the...

That would be 17K per system. I think he is putting in 2 systems per house.

I hate seeing all that flexduct. Is there any way to put in some sort of trunk line?

I am not familiar with putting units in a closet. Around get it is either the basement or attic.

I don't see the value of the side port since I use the Bluvac mini. As fat as I know it is rated for up to 500# of pressure.

The one I have is about 3 years old and still works fine. I am sure...

In the summer it will be an ice maker. That is if it does not take out the compressor first in heat mode.

It is the American way... build a better mouse trap.

I leave it open. Probably .01% of the equipment air flow. Not gonna matter.

Why do these guys come on here looking for tchs with no information included.

Pay rate?
Residential or commercial?
Experience? Apprentice/Journeyman?

More info needed.

I do the exact same thing. Only difference is that I use a blue marker so that I know that I have been there before. No one else that I know uses a blue marker or even marks where they puncture the...

Do a web search. Someone has one somewhere on this planet.

I have had absolutely no problem with my Appion CRT. No reason to change.

Cost less that the Fieldpiece. I see no reason for a sightglass on a CRT.

How about just use what the original manufacturer used-> R-22.

I am a Ford & Toyota fan. That is person and business.

But workwise, no less than a 3/4 or one ton.

I have a 2011 one ton Ford which is still running great. I will run that until the wheels...

Most of the time on inverter systems, a call to tech support is needed to sort things out.

Hope you figure it out.

I have had mine for over 12 years and have never had that issue. Assuming the battery is good, I have no suggestions other than call Yellow Jacket tech support.

If it is pretty new, it should be...

Do tell. What is the name of the other company?

What did he do on each those 2 visits?

Were the repairs related?

If I do a repair and the system is up and running, I give a warrantee on my work. Unless the second call is a different issue,...

If the system is in the attic, then it would be required. Along with a way to drain the secondary drain pan to the outside or a switch to shut the system off if the pan gets water in in.

It is a...

Never heard of AC Pro.

From my experience and observation, in order to qualify for the tax credit of 2000, you will need to spend and additional 3-4000 over the cost of a basic single stage heat pump.

The additional...

You did not get lucky. Nest just did not fail yet, well maybe is has now.

The theory f operation of this thermostat is a mystery to all, including the company that makes it.

Also, there are...

You are full of it.

I get a better price from my local supply house than I can get on line.

Willing to bet other contractors are the same.

Your service tool wrench will work for the allen to remove the plug. Only problem is that it fits a little loose and you need to first break it loose with a regular allen wrench. I am always afraid...

That is some serious artwork right there!

Excellent job!

The "H" series Fujitsu systems are quite different from the standard/regular condensers.

I am sure that the boards are different as well.

Mixing would not cause any issues.

I would make sure an accurate heat load/gain calculation is done before selecting equipment sizing.

If they expect you to extend them credit, they need to fill out a credit application. The charge for that service is 150 (non-refundable).

That lets them know you are serious and you do not have...

I am not here to do whatever the customer wants. I do not try to convince them that could be other issues.

My mistake was to give her a price on replacing the blower motor.

Why are you getting paid late?

I would go with Housecall Pro. I have looked at most of them and Housecall seems to be the most user friendly and economical.

As far as accounting for a small business accounting is too stupidly...

That is exactly why I did not want to just replace the blower.

I don't need the work right now and I do have time next week to replace the furnace.

I told her to call someone else. Maybe they...

24 year old Lennox gas Furnace G26 series. Has a dead blower. Rust throughout on the upper shelf near the inducer.

I gave her a price to install a new blower motor and a furnace replacement.
...

My thoughts were that if you set the thermostat to not allow the a/c to be set below 68 degrees, it would handle the problem in the most simple manner. Which is where I have them set in commercial...

There is a setting on many thermostats that will limit how low you can set the a/c setting.

Would that work. It would be based on the indoor temperature.

To me, this is more scary than anything.

Wait till our gubmint gets on the AI bandwagon. Then we will really be in trouble.

Not sure if they are sold in the big box stores, but if they are I would stay away from them.

I know that Honeywell ha models they sell in the big box stores and they are garbage as well as the...

Please do yourself and your equipment a favor and get rid of that Nest Thermostat.

It has not only died an early death, but can cause all kinds of intermittent problems/issues.

No email in your profile to email you.

Yes, best is to check the charge in a/c mode when the outdoor temperature is over 70 degrees.

If you are installing a multi-stage condenser or variable speed it would be fine to upsize (providing the ductwork can support it). However, you are in a mostly cooling environment. So I see no need...

If the thermostat is wi-fi, you can use the wi-fi to detect the outdoor temperature. It will either use the Nation Weather Service temperature or the temperature from the nearest airport.

In your...

No reason to cut off the heat pump compressor. Let it run all the time.

Set the droop (ISU 340) to 2 or 3 degrees.

Lock out the heat strips above 20 or 25 degrees.

Set the Upstage Timer for...

I think you are over your head here and need to find a qualified technician to get this corrected.

Were I am we need to setup the system will run 60 seconds less as a heat pump and extend the max defrost time to 9 minutes.

I also set the lock out to 20 degrees on the heat pump before the back...

Thanks. Did not check his profile.

Never mind then.



OK. Thanks.
