In georgia I had a 2 ton for a 1600 sq. ft. house built in 81. You have a 1.5 ton and a 2 ton for a 1500 sq. ft. house?

finally some one said something about the intake air piped into an encapsulated crawlspace. the would be more of my concern.

so me not knowing much of what is installed I did find a carrier N coil on top of a 90% trane furnace and the design of the 90% HE blocked the air flow to the right side of the coil which was 1/3 of...

it is overcharged or has an air flow issue. did anyone check static?

Rheem & Ruud have had 34" furnaces out since at least 1993 and I Have never seen an issue with reliability. Yes I have replaced induced draft assemblies, ignitors and control boards but not due to...

yea, it ain't 24 volts.

with today's higher efficiency systems the evaporator coil that sits on top of the furnace are outrageously tall. where I am I need the extra 4 inches given up by the furnace so that the new...

I show that the 4ttr6060 is not available in my area (no supply house has any in stock) only the 4ttr6061 is available.

2 Stage equipment only comes in whole number sizes 2, 3, 4 and 5.

I could not get both arms and hands into a smoke damper to replace the fusible link so i had to use my vehicle jack to lift up the door so I could install the link with only one hand. LOL

nortek only gives 5 years warranty of heat pumps and ac's for mobile homes. electric furnace/air handler is only 1 year.

that reversing valve looks original to me and I have only seen 1 system with silver solder (plumbing solder) used to install the complete system and even a replacement compressor. the lineset...

I have never worked on or seen a Unico unit so I know nothing about these but it sounds as if the bosch will not work with it. I believe the Bosch will maintain an evaporator temp of 47* or 37* at...

for furnaces yes but did they on air handlers?

what is stranger is that when the ac is disconnected in the winter the fuse doesn't blow. :whistle:

I thought trane coils were warranted for 10 years and if not 5 years minimum. I would ask about it.

LOL. How can a filter filter out dust if the dust never makes it to the filter to be filtered out? Dust is heavier than air so the dust want to settle DOWN towards the floor and if something is in...

so he is not installing a pool heater (complete system) but just a heat exchanger. I now see.

Many years ago georgia power came out with the same thing for water heaters (waste heat recovery is...

Am I thinking about this wrong? That the fan should not be shut off for reasons that I won't mention. Think about it it is a pool heater (heat pump).

You say you got a new Goodman 14seer unit. Is that the outdoor unit, indoor unit or both. If outdoor unit only then it is probably a mismatched system and will not give you the efficiency that you...

sorry, never noticed that heat pump and ac were 2 different cfm's. :oops:

are you talking about a TAM or a TEM? I did not think TEM had EEV but a TXV.

i just copied and pasted this from a tem6 installation manual.

Sequence of Operation
Cooling (Cooling only)
When the thermostat calls for cooling, the circuit
from R to G is completed. The...

when you look at the installation manual it only has a w not w1 and w2. the c in the model number means it is communicating and Amana dumbed down the wiring so the board handles the stages not the...

I see several thermostats bought at home depot or lowes that say they are for heat pumps but really shouldn't be that have been purchased and installed by the homeowner and wired so that the ac is on...

and to add to their answer. You also have to have 24v on a specific wire to start the timer.

6 hours to those tests? you need someone who knows what they are doing.

LOL. That thing is not installed properly. The installation instructions will actually list very good information on where to place the steam outlet. and your ducts not being sealed well has...

you really need to open it up and take some really good picture of the top and bottom on the inside and post them here.

NO i did not.

you are correct. I did not realize he had the 3 ton I would have gone with the 2 ton just for air flow and capacity.

does he have electric heat? it sounds like he doesn't. If...

you did notice where he said it was 20* outside? At those temps I think it would be working well. In theory a 2 ton at 17* would only be putting out approximately 15,000 or less btu's. Not enough...

what does the 5 flashes say? Where the parts actually faulty or were they changed just because? the t-stat looks as if it came from home depot or lowes or a place similar.
.

Not even Labor? I can see the part being covered under warranty by ANYONE but I do not see after 2 years someone that did not install the unit to supply or honor the labor warranty that is usually...

the 2 I put in for people are working fine and they like it.

I went out on a mini split estimate and some of the questions that I was being asked, weirded me out as the homeowner should of never known to ask them. I finally asked how many other estimates did...

you could redesign the the control board for the furnace to make it operate your way and not the manufacturers way.

down to about 30* mine has a 40* temp split and the minimum I have seen is 35*. but we have not been below 17* yet this winter.

In theory you can adjust the blower down below 600 cfm which would be closer to the actual capacity needed and in the winter it would have more capacity for heat so possible aux. heat is only needed...

You really shouldn't bash something until you understand it. I believe it will work just fine the Bosch that is, the open return not so sure about it.

The air filter should not be above .3" if new, and it is at .45" makes you wonder how big they cut the opening on that furnace. And I have never seen a clean evap at .61" either.

where is your drip leg for the gas line?

are you sure it is not just the humidifier getting hot and radiating heat into your foam sprayed mechanical room? as the grille side of the humidifier does not have air flow from the electric...

He took the readings in the wrong place. the filter alone will be about .2" wc. the evap coil will be about .25" wc, so I would say you are looking at .6" to .8"wc minimum.

how did I double post?

I will probably catch he-- for this but if it is low enough not to be left running I will add 1-3# of recovered R-22 (charged through a drier of course) then pressure up with nitrogen and then use my...

So if it is not charged properly or it is having some type of issue it may run at a higher speed outside which means it will run at a higher cfm inside. My variable speed unit will run faster...

what is the temperature currently? Outside that is. So in theory the colder it is outside the faster it could run depending on the t-stat setting and reading.

you do realize when your heat pump goes into defrost, which can happen as high as 45* that the gas furnace comes on to temper the air? This will not explain the longer run times than the heat pump...

As long as you understand if the thermostat fails it is not the HVAC contractors fault (providing that he wanted to replace it and you didn't).

yes it is and a package unit to top it off.
