I would only do it as a no warranty situation and money up front if I was ultimately financially responsible for something like this or 30 year old units.
I commend your ability to make messes like these rise from the dead, but I would CYA with a steel reinforced, locking chasity belt.
Charity cases exepted, of course.

If they do not want a new unit and want it fixed I would shove all the parts in it they want. Of course I dont install new stuff, I stay much more busy making old junk new again.

You weren't the first guy he called and you obviously weren't the last. He's getting exactly what he's willing to pay for.

Can't you red tag that unit? Oh yeah its in the land of the free. Free to kill yourself and anyone around.
No one to report this guy to?
Member
I would tell him get some wood and build a fire in the unit then turn on the fan.
Professional Member*
Lolthe only other thing I suggested to him is electric base board heat. Other then that I can't do anything.

Rubber tape with a duct tape wrap to secure never fails. That's probably what's on it with a foil tape wrap for heat deflection
Professional Member
those are the worst heat exchangers to changeout

They are the most time consuming. But if you do or have done tons of em, you knock em out . . . While keeping it clean and not ripping up insulation!

How long does it take you to do the change out??

I haven't timed a 10 ton or smaller. But with 2 guys we would have that thing out and new one in the unit in less than an hour for sure. Without ripping it all up! Thats not counting checking in, setting up, etc . .

Oh hell no...
The salt is half empty...
You need to break up with that place. That is scary.
Professional Member*
What the hell is that? A propane fired portable heater? Is that flame glowing?
Professional Member*
Yup.... yes it is.. they had three of them fired up in the Resturant.
