    We were required to wire an empty furnace cabinet to a "gutted" condenser" when I went to trade school. With no schematic. Learned a lot from that. I guess schools now just want to produce graduates not techs.

    Why do I only get a HVAC license when reality is I'm a plumber, electrician, counselor and financial expert once I'm working on someone's equipment?
