HACKS...
OTOH: we would not have hacks if customers were not cheapskates.

No. Was out because it quit work. Fan motor burnt up. Wonder why?
Hacks keep me employed. Because eventually they cough up a honestly hourly rate and get it fixed right.

oh my.
It`s better to be silent and thought the fool; than speak and remove all doubt.

Looks like Doc Oc strikes again!
I notice they even went for the economy 2" blocks instead of the heavy duty 8" core type?
BTW, do they make 12" flex that is OD rated? Or are you using the solid aluminum with no insul?
Professional Member
No flex is OD rated. Its insulated. It's a temp fix. Curb adapter is 6 days out.

A wise Chinese man once said "What has been seen, cannot be unseen". This is going to be in the back of my mind from now on. Thats too funny. Wonder if the installers spoke english well? People are Idiots! NO.. No... The owner of the business is an Idiot for hiring those idiots. And his mother should be punished for raising an idiot.

Oh to have seen your face as you crested the roof.
The first time a tech sees a high wind operated economizer on a package unit can produce hilarious facial expressions and lip movements...
Professional Member
At least they used mastic to seal the vents. LOL

Uninsulated...nice
Professional Member
That is brilliant. Pay us full price and we will come back and fix it later. How about that unit behind it falling off the blocks. Some pretty shabby work in that area. Must keep you busy. I am getting kind of hungry from looking at that burger in ADillions avatar.
