    Trane splits

    This is a job we did not long ago.
    Was 4 trane 2teh3f ahus
    with 2tta condensors
    unit 2a and 2b are twined
    all have ducted return
    I think my guys did a good job on this but they killed me with the hours
    They still need to find that balance
    between speed and a good job
    When you have to bid these jobs against low balling creeps
    you must pick up the pace a bit
    but still the job looks good
    and I made sure to tell them how much I liked it
    everybody needs to be stroked once in a while
    except service managers or owners
    who never get stroked
    only catch all the crap

    What is "twined" - is that the strapping I see on the cond units? What's up with that?

    Twined is where 2 air handlers tie together after the turning vanes
    (so no air feeds back)
    and also have a common return and t-stat
    ahu1 is stage 1
    ahu2 is stage 2
    the strapping is common down there
    the inspectors require the strapping in hurricane alley
    we have to strap down package units as well, even tho we put screws into the curbs 8 inches on center.
    Yes they are a little close to the wall but that was what we had to work with.
