Sometimes it is best to politely drop bad customers. The old saying about earning a new customer and retaining old ones, yada yada yada, goes completely out the window in this field. Customers...

you can always tell whose broke by the dudes pushing the big trucks with lift kits and big tires they can't afford.

100 percent. I was in business 10 years before I bought myself a new, 70k truck with cash. And even then it seemed silly. There's a lot you can do with cash to make more money.

Also, adding wealth management to this. Once you get there, you need some place to invest. Don't let your wife or Edward Jones do it for you. There's countless youtube videos on investing. It's...

Agree with accrual but that is more when you have a few other techs and employees. This is simple money management. Don't even attempt to start a business if you aren't good with money. Yes, a...

Installers.

100 percent agree. Changeout/subs are a dime a dozen but a decent tech i'll spoil with fancy fishing trips to Cabo and arena/sports tickets

Good point. Refrigeration, Is an entirely different field IMO. Good refer guys should stick to that and vice versa. Especially if you like being on call 24/7. Heck, I get pissed off now If a tech...

This is how it is at first, maybe. Until you have warranty calls that break down on weekends and holidays. When I first started on my own I had to answer to everyone, All of the customers! Once...

Are you willing to relocate to Austin? If so, please DM me a resume that is readable or send me your email pls

exactly. same with lazy builders that don't put stairs to the attic access and just leave a scuttle hole. We make the homeowner drag the ladder up if there is no access.

No takers? I can pay relocation assistance and guaranteed salary of 30 hours during the slow season.

That's what I was thinking (and over-thinking). Maybe we didn't let it settle long enough to equalize or whatever ever lame excuse they're gonna say.

So i checked and it does have stock phase protection. What cause it to blow a terminal and blow off the terminal plug like that on a brand new unit? Maybe they didn't change the filter? The...

yes, it did

The compressor was not replaced yet. Its a 2 month old unit. But yes, agree on the monitor.

No reports, it was a changeout so just matched it up. Haven't done the acid test yet but planned on bringing one out with the driers and flush just in case.

I found the terminal harness removed and the terminal plug leaking with black oil everywhere. What would cause this? I have a new one ordered but don't want to replace...

Small company. We don't need to "sell" anything because it sells itself. It's pretty common around here to delegate certain tasks to skilled installers. Last i checked a level 3 or senior tech...

DOB means "Dying of Boredom" from what i learned. Age has nothing to do with this post. But to answer your question, yes the installers do the compressors and evap coils. Any tech that loves this...

installers are a dime a dozen around here. If it takes you less than an hour to diagnose a condensate overflow switch or bad txv then we can talk.

Can anyone recommend a good, compact electric or battery pump to remove water out of secondary pans in attic? Shop vacs are too bulky and a pain to empty. There used to be a sweet little electric...

I would hire you in Austin. We slow down in the winter anyway. And i could keep you busy in the summer with how ever many hours you wanted. I let the guys work as little or much as they want. ...

shoot me your info i was just out there today dropping of my dad's birthday gift!

People love options. Why replace a leaking coil on a 20 year old R22 system? Usually when you present them with a list of things they need to get the system in shape, the equipment sells itself.

trying to squeeze one up a hatch bc no room for crane. Any thoughts? I thought york had some small ones at one time

I'd be interested in talking. I'm a small biz in Austin and looking to expand out there.

curious about the work there now. I was visiting the city last week and loved it. The cost of living seems to have leaped quite a bit. Still i could eat oysters all day and night and be happy : )

I was gonna say too. Coming from Socal, you'll be bored AF out there.

These are great memes and vids guys and i appreciate your sense of humor! This has inspired me to stay in the field and hire more office personal to do the boring work. Heck, i like being in my...

right, but can i vent down a foot and then out the side?

This is a small remodel and i'm not sure if its best to run it up inside the wall and vent thru attic sidewall or just vent it down thru the crawlspace and out thru the side underneath? It would be...

Still looking guys. If anyone one is ready for a change or would like to move to Austin, give me a shout.

Seemed like a good guy but he decided not to make the move here. The search is still on.

Sounds like bs to me. There are pays such as "ticket time" or "performance pay" based on the repair but that just sounds overly complicated and untrustworthy.

Top pay means whatever you're worth. Up to $30 hourly plus commission. I've never said no to the right person. My current guys have all been with me over 3 years. That being said, attitude and...
