    I think the point would be that HVAC professionals are forced to be responsible with refrigerants while there is no teeth in organizations that come down on HVAC pros to do anything about DIYers doing the same thing.
    Training is important!

    I resent that....poorly maintained pools contribute.

    You might as well have said you were a brain surgeon.

    Because either one is completely incompetent to do this work without proper training and experience.

    When someone comes to me asking questions about maybe putting PV's on their house to help reduce their dependence on electricity made from fossil fuel or to just help reduce their energy consumption I don't give them attitude and think I am better than them I give them answers based on my years of experience in the field that I was trained in.

    I am not so insecure that I feel I have to give smart A** answers to people who ask questions.

    Ban me if you like because I will never visit this forum again.

    Come on Robo lighten up, It's not like he was asking how to convert his Furnace to burn Hydrogen or something. For crying out loud.

    I think that song was by Kansas..."Dust in the Wind"...unless you're thinking about a Queen song I don't know about (which is possible, since I don't intentionally listen to that group's works ).

    I agree with you, Robo...if the system is a proper match and installed correctly, and the tech is a little patient, he can make a fixed restrictor system sing when it needs to. I prefer TXV's...I think they're better for performance and compressor longevity...but if all you wanna do is "run what ya brung", then it's imperative to either find the correct info or the correct person to get you there.
