That’s impressive dude. Nice work. I really like that you draw schematics for the next guy. But I have to ask... what’s up with the stat wires. It almost looks like you have (2) 18-3 wires going to...

I’m pretty sure you need to get your post count up to post pics. But I’d like to see this thing when you eventually are able to post pics

That’s awesome man! I’m about to do something similar in my uncles house. Wanna do it w/o canvas’s like you did. I know you already said you haven’t had any vibration/noise issues. But have you ever...

Nice. Never thought of using mega press for steam. We always just threaded our own. Will megapress flex like a swingjoint? For expansion/contraction?

Yessir. Very nice. Way to keep em straight looks great man. That’s a serious expansion tank too. I like the speed and look of the joint with propress. But when you get into bigger stuff it seems to...

Looks good but be careful pointing the discharge towards a walkway. They will make walkways into a sheet of ice during winter months. Which explains why sometimes you see them facing the wall...

Actually I’ve had great experiences with the bags and the warranty stuff. I forgot to close and lock on of my side boxes one weekend and when I was on my commute my LT backpack fell out onto the...

Is the filtered rack a media cabinet or just a 1”? And If it were me I would strongly suggest purchasing a new down drop and filter rack to the customer. 16x20 isn’t sufficient for much unit at all....

So that air handler in the crawl. I’m looking but I don’t see a return duct? Did I miss it or are they pulling from the crawl!!!!

I’ve never seen such nice armaflex work though. Good job dude

I bought the lineset tape a few weeks ago. It’s horrible! If you really have to tape it use the thick 1-1/2” electrical tape from capitol Tristate or put a small amount of arms flex glue on the back...

That’s definantly your best bet. I’ve found their prices are actually better than my local suppliers even though they’re open to the public. And if you have anything wrong with the order they make it...

Geo will save him $ on the very cold days as he won’t be burning through lp or using electric heat. But install cost are a huge factor. As stated before get a reputable well driller. The wells will...

I found a small stone embedded in a new 7/8” suction line before. I assumed debris got into whatever die they use to extrude the tubing. But nothing like what your talking about? What pipe is white?...

^^^^agreed. Everything looks amazing but I’d have to agree the mastic kinda takes back a little. It looks good but not great as the rest of the install is. I avoid using mastic on the outside but...

That’s awesome man. Straight heat huh? Your metal’s real nice! What do you use to seal it up with?

did your brother have a cat that disappeared last year sometime?

Sometime in the past year that became part of our local code too. We put them outside the cabinet now. The best reason I was able to get out of anyone is that a union is the most probable thing to...

I use the rigid 15 and 101. I stick with rigid. They’re the only cutters where I’ve never seen them not work the way they are meant too. The 101’s are nice for tight spots and for when you mess up a...

^^^ I prefer the Lennox too

I’ve used them before but I believe if there is too many things blocking “line of sight” they have trouble. Definantly a Last resort tho

I guess I could just find the corresponding temp and lock out there. Because aslong as it cuts out when I want it to I could care less if the temp reading on the stat is accurate

:censored: dang it

Has anyone ever swapped a carrier oat sensor( 33zcsenoat) with a Honeywell c7089 oat sensor. From the literature I found online they are both at 10k ohm-77’F. It just looks like the carrier is more...

He’ll ya dude. Looks good. I can see some of the spots getting tight but it’s awesome you make on site. So it’s all hand cut and layed out eh? I’ve been making some fittings ALL by hand lately...

If you make those fittings yourself what I really wanna see is a picture of your metal shop! The fittings you post are nice! Maybe one day I’ll build myself a nice metal shop:angel:

The spacer is what I was talking about. I agree on straight versus trans in that application tho.

Don’t get me wrong. I think the metal looks very nice but how come you decided to put a piece between the filter and unit instead of leaving the drop full size? What were your static’s? Looks...

Doesn’t that kind of defeat the purpose though? In the off cycle with the fan running it would start to equalize the house and kick it back in heat/cool mode? I always told people with zone systems...

I like the short section of duct between the filter cabinet and unit! Very clean work dude. Do you seal your ducts from the inside? I started using some mastic on the insides of most of the joints,...

I think it looks great man. Nice clean install.

does that drain go to sewer or septic? I think the sound of the condensate would help me go.

We have a metal shop of our own. I think they use 24g galvanized. Bend inch in and inch down around the inside edge. Keep it as tall as the unit is wide

Change in enthalpy

So from what I’m gathering here is the larger diameter hoses really shine in the very low range.... but what I’m not understanding is how my 7 cfm pump wouldn’t be maxed out when using (2) 1/2” 6’...

WTH I apparently missed a whole page of post lol

Hmmm please post it. I’d like to see that. Maybe mine is worn out too. Ultimate pull down is ~35. That’s not tooooooo bad I’d think but I’ve heard of new ones getting below 20

Thank you. I’ve been looking for one that works for awhile. I was merely saying that the connection sizes aren’t nearly as important as the hose diameter (because of the short length of connection)...

Do you know the formula for conductance speed? Every time I’ve tried to do the math I get it messed up somewhere, But what about 2 - 1/2” hoses? When I was messing with mine I saw virtually no...

I think the only way to be sure would be to test your own equipment. That way YOU know how YOUR rig works. Hose size is your biggest deciding factor. If your using trublu 3/4” hoses I would think...

Yes whole load. How else would the house heat up or cool down in a decent time when all zones are calling. I take my time sizing the duct tho because if you cut off half of the ductwork when only one...

I usually break r to stat and condensing unit. If I have my common wire at stat I leave out the batteries so as soon as there is a drainage issue it goes blank. Then I’ll explain that if there’s no...

Not sure. I know I leave mine “on” at my house now. Keeps the house much more “even” and comfortable. Which is funny cause I’ve been telling people for years to leave it on “auto” but that was ...

Pretty much like how most linesets are run anyways like I said

Make that 5 or 6” I just looked at em and they’re deeper than I remembered. Most of the time I don’t worry about it tho because the way the lineset runs. For example if the air handler is In the...

That should be more than enough. I have some prepare ones for 7/8” in the truck and they’re either 3 or 4” p traps. I’d probably do it with the tubing benders like mentioned before ( if your going...

Good thread. I’ve been wondering the same thing for a little bit now. My plan (when I pony up the money for it) is buy a 1/4” vac rates hose and put a depressor in the end. Then pull the vacuum with...

Please tell me they have filter grilles!
But ya that’s not good. If it’s flex I woulda seen if I could rotate 90’ and get rid of that secondary drain trap and put in two safe-t-switch’s. One in...

Haha nice. Piping looks awesome dude. Did you do that?

Why is there a Vietnamese child hiding in the corner?
