Read the directions!

It's been awhile since I've been on here, but why is no one screaming for superheat, subcooling and amp draw?

UNLESS, someone changed the reversing valve, and accidently put it in backwards, so added a relay sending Y to energize the RV in heat to cover his tracks, so it wooshed everytime call for heat...

What the heck is an RGF?

Underfeeding due to a bad txv is my guess. IMO you proved it by the high head in heating after adding charge.

Underfeeding indoor txv.

No, it's the rollout switch. A restricted hx doesn't allow for a proper draft, so it rolls out.

Contact your ICP rep to tell you how to clean the oil out of the secondary heat exchanger.

What position are the installs?

What furnace are you talking about? Would make a big difference in my thought process.

The blower needs to be pulled. Keep the filter changed, and you won't have to worry about it.

The round hole where they are connected. The ring pops off, just like the Goodmans. They had a service bulletin on them, and a recall at one time.

We've decided to use dye, unless the system is flat. Then we use a little r22 to flavor the nitrogen. I'm tired of buying new detectors to find they all miss small 410a leaks.

Our ICP reps seem to be a little more honest, they told us last time, a new oil they tried, emulsified and wouldn't drain with the water. This time the factory guy told me he thought someone found an...

Not sure about the Carrier number, but the Bryant rep was surprised when I told him about it today. Didn't argue about the warrenty request though.

Yes.

Return of an old problem, Tempstar T9MPX, Bryant 359AAV furnaces, with rollout problems on startup. Listen for gurgling in the secondary hx, indicating the return of the oil sludge. Thought they...

In my experience, when I think I'm all that, I'll do something stupid that humbles the heck out of me. :grin2:

What?

No solenoid, just a valve with an equalizer. Didn't let it run long enough to freeze the evap. Compressor was flooding so bad I shut it off. Compressed air temp was 105f. This unit was added to the...

Suction pressure is 68psi. Like I said both power elements on the txv and the hot gas valve, but not the bodies, have been replaced, along with two compressors. By another co. Now I need to get to...

That's what's bugging me. Txv is suposed to be factory set. I think it is the txv, because the pressure is in the green.

Can you say, Yearly Maintenance?

Ok, air dryer guys. Question of adjusting a new txv. I replaced a compressor in a Pneumatech ad-1000 today. Reportedly it has been changed twice before. Mechanical problem, it was running but not...

1994.

That roof penetration wouldn't work in Oregon.

When I'm standing in front of a customer, that is MY customer. I look out for them. I will do the best job for THEM. I don't however, throw others under the bus. If there is a problem with someone...

What? Mickey D's don't do that out here!

I'd pay that guy to make my van look like that!:bump:

Thanks, I didn't want to read the whole thing.

What happens is on startup, the tech turns on all of the zones. If the wiring is crossed, he would never know because all linesets would be energized. If the wiring is crossed, when one zone is...

[QUOTE=bgymn2002;11284492]It is a three system outdoor unit with only 2 connected. I was told my a tech at one of our supply companies and he told me to add ref. 1.62oz per every 5 foot over 25 foot...

Wow! Didn't listen to a thing!

You have asked the most incomplete question I've seen since, Huh? Think of it this way, what information would your senior tech ask you for , when you call him, and give it to us. I've checked...

I haven't read all the crud on this thread, I don't need to. I have talked to an eyewitness to the pentagon strike. He watched the plane go over his head as he turned around and saw the whole thing....

Is it a single or a multi?

Wow!

It's best to use an exhaust fan to pull the air through a big container of water. Use a bell shaped inlet,as that seems to work great for the smaller applications.:grin2:

Give us the picture of the entire diagram including all of the notes and legends, please. Model # would be helpful.

Unfortunately, this is a common problem across all brands. They do not leak slowly, they let the charge go in an hour or two. You will probably find the cap tube cracked where it enters the valve...

Why did it fail? Make sure you have your tech check the static pressure! After the repair.

You guy's aren't making fun of the Ducks are you?

Very nice resource, thanks!

Arks are only needed for 30 or 40 days.:grin2:

Looks like a two ton to me. Take a piece of paper, and lay over the plate and do a rubbing with a pencil.

I can remember in Denver, I saw several mech rooms with chillers and huge built up air handlers.

Yea, whatever. Lazy a$$ cop. I went through someone breaking in my house for months. Only took small stuff. It was like he just liked messing with me. I tried everything to keep him out. Finally, I...

I'm with you. I've never had a problem with that. I'd make him prove it.

Russell, I want to see that test with 410a.
