Well, the installer put the drain pipe for the drain pan in a location that would notify the homeowner (You) that there was water in the pan, thus telling the homeowner (you), of a problem with the...

Yup Me too. If I'm doubtful about the results with the UEI, Then I break out the High Dollar Meter. At times I still use my old analog. especially if I have a component that's dropping out and then...

Thanks pecsmsg:::::: Now I have what I need. Wasn't able to find this on my own. Getting too darned old for this stuff. I really do appreciate this. Uni.

Thanks Scott: Honestly these are the first Dixells that I've ever seen. I'm retired since 08, and am doing this for a charitable organization in our community that feeds the homeless and poor in our...

Am working on 4 Supera freezers with Dixell controllers on them. Three of them were showing the same symptom. Boxes too warm, and evaporator fans aren't running. I called Dixell tech support and the...

Hmmm. You need "Cap Chaser". Pump a lead slug thru the cap tub, pull the oil, rinse compressor with naptha, new oil, new cap tube dryer, evacuate and recharge. Golden. Trouble is, we have become a...

I have a shirt tail family member that is the top guy in the Quality Control Department at an Asian owned, company with a branch here in the US. He really lives his job. He is on call 24-7. He...

OK, You answered my question about their universal phone line that doesn't work. I up against freezers of the same brand. Our local church group that feeds the hungry has 6 3-door freezers. 4 of...

Like Dean says "Call the Man!"

On a typical Heat pump/gas furnace system, defrost is initiated by an adjustable timer on the defrost control board. it also uses the defrost temperature sensor to verify that conditions of the heat...

Would consider the bid about normal for my area. We aren't supposed to talk price on this forum, but since the cat is out of the bag,,,,,,,,,,I'm a retired HVAC-R Contractor. I still read a lot,...

You pretty much summed up my opinion of change. I could make it work back in the day,,,,,,now it's throw away a sophisticated device that looks, and usually is expensive, and just plug it in. Where...

Yeah, I hear they have those out there in the real world. Where we live, you'd have to hire an oyster picker & furnish the equipment and the garden hose. Then if you gave him a coffee break, you'd...

Well, I've brought home four of them,& stuck them in the carport where Momma keeps her 95 Riviera. Ima Gonna, isn't a good terminology to use around her. What's she gonna do when I bring home 2...

Hey! What can I say! I'm an old man! Actually started in 1963. Lessee,,,,,,,,2019 less1963,,,,,,,aw shucks,,,,so I missed it a few...…….:oops:

You have an excellent grip on the problem as I see it. These guys used poor refrigeration practices such as not purging hoses, and connecting to systems numerous times, adding gas and blowing gas...

Yeah, well, I had come to the same conclusion. Now I'm sitting here at 3:15 AM, nursing my first cup of coffee, trying to decide what to do with three , no four prep tables, a stand up freezer, and...

We had a hack come through the community, and put stop leak in a bunch
of sandwich prep tables and some reachins too. He was good at selling
stop leak, and "recharging" systems. I've been...

I've always had very good results with Robinair. For automotive, it's great. For HVAC, refrigeration, I use an Appion G2.

I have three Annies an A-12 and another one that is bigger The M/N escapes me. I also have am A-17 millivolt and Mag Valve tester. I need a schematic for this tester as the mag valve section is...

Engineers are good train drivers.

I called around to my suppliers, and got the same response. Try the internet, or retire them.

I'm still using Klein tools that I've purchased over the years. When I wore the paint off the ends of the nutdrivers, I would repaint them with the model paint available at a hobby shop. At the same...

Local convenience market purchased two of these freezers (on line) asked me to look at them as they are developing frost around the corners of the doorway openings, and around the hinges. Do these...

Local fishmonger purchased a package chiller "Online," for a Dungeness crab tank. I had manufactured one for him with a titanium barrel, (air cooled), and he bought a Chinese one that was designed...

Used infinite controls (amperage OK) figured out elements, rewired and fired everything up,,,(poor choice of words) Everything checked out. Took cart back to lady, and she is going to sell dogs...

Yeah, I thought of that, but think I'm ok if I figure out the amperage. I'm hoping they aren't too large. I also purchased rotaries.

Friend of mine has purchased a hot dog cart, used of course, and asked me to get it running. It has three solid hot plate elements, three terminals, 120 volt. It came in pieces. I have ordered...

Draft from main burner ignition pulling pilot away from Powerpile enough to lower millivolts, causing main burner to drop out? Should come back on though after main goes out and pilot has opportunity...

Guess I'm doing it all wrong. I still have the original J/B that I purchased back in 1980. It still performs as well as it did when I bought it. Over the years I've replaced a cartridge and a...

We'll try. diagnosing equipment is tricky at times. I've been stymied at times on a job, and posted on here. At times all it takes is another person looking at the problem from a different...

Been in the biz for a few years, and have used mostly J/Bs a few Ritchies and a few Robinairs. I posess 7 vac pumps at the moment, and prefer my J/Bs over all of em. Lighter weight, faster pump...

I did the same thing while waiting for a new board from UR. got em by until the part got here. I'm not sure it didn't work better.

Was riding with my brother who maintains electric company substations out in the Nevada desert. Came upon a lady stranded on the side of the road, where she had fallen asleep at the wheel, plunged...

Me too. In the course of a 50 year career in HVAC & R, I probably developed the worst if not the slowest history in finding leaks. In my career as an owner-tech of my own company, I probably lost...

So did they send a hit man after him? Was he bought off? as in "I'll give you $!0,000.00 for your Dremel Tool."? What happened? No Pics! No proof of the uselessness of this item?

DO you mean a replaceable core filter dryer?

Sounds like a good place to start. I worry about safety in newbies more than knowledge. I don't want to see someone get hurt.

I need more input. Is this a breaker located in a panel, or is this breaker located in the equipment?

Look for a tag inside cabinet, to the left and the bulkhead. Like previously said, it only holds ounces. evaps are usually the leak source.

At one point in my life,. I worked for a company that was always iffy as far as their accounts payable. Because we were located 80 miles away from all of our supply houses and everything that we...

Thanks,,,,Memory is patooey, Couldn't remember.

I need to know which Ranco control will replace the control for an MST-28. Have the two most popular 701, and a 700. Need to help this guy out, and hate to wait for an OEM.

Hmmmm. What comes to mind when someone says hack?

I've got a few that will fit the invention,,,,,,,,almost.

Couple of quick questions,,,,,Where are your filters located? Did they modify the return air grills when they installed the new A/C?

Me too. Too darned big. By the time I got it loaded, I had to use a hand truck to move it around. Never even tried to get it on a roof or down into an engine room on a boat. It sits in my garage...

When you start in this industry, read any and everything that you are able to get your hands on. I used to take home and read all of the brochures that came with gas valves, ignition modules, fan...

That's why you always close valves on everything. Acetylene valves are really difficult because the last guy may have used a vise grip or a pipe wrench on the stem instead of a square wrench, making...
