SO THIS IS WHAT I DID AT 9PM AFTER LARGE CABLE GUY CLIMBED OVER MY UNIT

[TBrazin]

My attic is very tight, but to get to the phone lines,you can go around all equipment,but i guess he saw i had threaded rod and steel braces under unit and in ceiling so im guessing as i saw him when he left he was a good 400lbs EASy ,ok so to the good stuff the pics will do the talking,but before i had a/c drains going out rear of house into gutter,which was ok except for wet spot in yard all the time,and the heating thru side of house into gutter again, this was worst as cold days would leave a LARGE patch of ice, so i always wanted to get around to re-routing them to the far end of attic tapping a vent pipe,i know i know,but the excess water was dangerous and muddy depends on season....there no licensing yet in nj. applied they are doing now FINALLY...ok house was rebuilt entirely 5 years ago except for this tiny part of attic,so i had to crawl whole job,my house is at max height inspector said i couldn't go any higher 45 feet high..ok so i finally ,took a while in and out getting supply's i didn't plan this at 9pm, today i have to notch some beams to get more a pitch,they have a pitch,but not what i demand....ok so for the good stuff...

[TBrazin]

OK Furnace keeps cycling on and off reading pressure switch open with inducer on, it was late,venting the furnace drain wasn't a good idea i suppose..lol

[fartbutstudly]

Looks like pulling blower assembly from that won't be fun...

[toocoolforschool]

WOW< WHAT???

[warsawmo]

You do realize someone will put these in the wall of shame don't you?

Looks like you can get a condensate pump in there.
Don't forget the AUX. drain pan!

[warsawmo]

Jus sayin

[TBrazin]

no need for a condensate, and the total height is 4 feet, and behind much lower 3 feet max, i said my house was built to max height anyhow i re-routed the vent to pan,and
re- did alot in the back, id like to see what you could pull off after a 14hr day, i think i did damm well considering the conditions,id doubt you would make it behind, comments like that to yourself, im sorry after a day like that im not superman like you there WARSOMO....and btw im sure i can and work on equipment you never heard of or seen,have you ever did a simple start up of a SERESCO dehumidifier? you know simple websentry technology, i can go on and on sorry everyone, btw, it wasn't the vent, i put a new draft inducer in 2 weeks ago and i noticed a draft i stuck my hand on the under side by chance. than say a drip.very little drip, a trip to auto zone and some black rtv and all's good now,and yes i can open front panel easill...y

[TBrazin]

and there's a pan as well, i have unit hanging with uni-strut, but i assure you there's a pan, a alarm, and as of today 3 separate drains for a/c only 2 for coil, 1 for pan, and another for heat so 4 total, and there going into 2 different stacks....all good fellas, i didn't need to be critiqued, i thought the story of fat man bringing all this on was entertainment,sorry never again, as the hecklers with 3-4 years exp are going to tell a licensed ac/plumber,and nate cert how to do a job....

[warsawmo]

Wow dude you brought this on yourself!
Notch beams??
Btw love the flex return.
drain into vent pipe?

And please explain the pic in post# 11?

[acdude32]

OK well ummmm wow where do I start....... whew no to much effort and just too easy. what state do you live in I need to go there I will stay busy year around. and if you did that and are nate certified, I really should reconsider my next extension to my nate cert.
I think I have to ask this ....... since when does low volume and velocity water run UP hill? thought I understood physics better than that but hey with new technology and all who knows anymore. till you work in a 2/12or 3/12 pitch roof attic then talk to me about tight spaces and having to work with no room. anyway just saying ......

OP: Maybe if you'd use less commas, you would be more likely to finish a complete thought; and folks would be able to follow along better.

LOL! im guilty of this as well!

You are nothing like this...read the first post again. It's like when someone says "um" too much; you start focusing on the "ums" and lose what is being said. I completely missed the drain set up and return flex for all the commas. I'm expecting something big, because..you know, there's a comma - only to get another few words and then another comma!
