Interesting!

Also he said it happened 2 weeks after it was serviced last. I don't think the service guy fully cleared the drain. I was there for an hour working on it and my neighbor said the service guy was...

So here's what I found. The evap was clear of ice, so I don't see an issue with the defrost heater. The drain was plugged with ice. I used a hair dryer on low to get what I could see. Tried...

I'll find out when I go over there today.

@pecmsg, so that is all that can be done because there is no permanent fix from the manufacturer? So is it just ice from the defrost cycle that gets caught in the drain, or is more like ice build up...

I'm not 100% sure this is the right place for this thread but I'm working on a problem that my neighbor has with his Samsung rb195acpn. I do commercial/industrial HVAC. I'm not an appliance guy. I...

True! They still need serviced though.

Subways are worse. I actually had a girl that worked at one tell me she got a cup of ice and it looked like "jizz" in the cup with the ice. Subways are bad because of the bread and the yeast in the...

It's funny because he said we only take care of our selves. I disagree, I Think we took care of that poor home owner and prevented more catastrophy.

Like I said!

Sorry about your friend. No offense but stick to supplying power to our equipment and let us take care of the equipment. Stop hijacking peoples threads.

Get a pro membership and post your...

Amen!

LOL...I already mentioned the WI idea to my boss.

I've only worked with 2 ladies so far. One was the daughter of the owner of a company I used to work for and she was just there to collect a pay check. The one I work with now is basically a filter...

well, the service guy who went on the call told me the room temp was 77 when he got there. So the only thing I can think of is he added the temp rise across the servers to the room temp. He's just...

Now that would be hell to get in there to change out compressors.

So, are there any lady HVAC mechanics on here?

Just curious! There is one lady who works in service in our shop. I only bring it up because when I post reply comments on here, I use the term...

ok, I guess it works for some and not for others. I'm sorry for the ones that it doesnt work for. Can we get back on topic?....lol So, what do you guys think?

By the way, they got the water...

on the flickr site or on here? It works for me but that isn't saying much because I loaded them. I don't know why it isn't working. Sorry! I'll give you a link to the album.

are you able to click on the links?

What can't you see? The pics or the video?

OK, this is going to be a long one it is my first Pic and video post.

We are putting this 8 ton unit in a 10' x 12' IT room because the guy in charge of the IT department says 66 degrees is not...

It's probably because he couldn't afford a bigger board so he dropped the N.

I've gotta say your exactly right because even though I didn't mention it before, the condenser has a head pressure control on it to cycle the condenser fan in low ambient. But that will maintain...

Record heat not blood pressure.....lol

Got a basic top freezer Frigidaire, no ice maker. It is a 20.5 Cu. Ft.

I was trying to buy american but within a budget. Unfortunately it is made in Mexico. It's pretty hard to find American...

Switch Grass>>>>>...

yeah I forgot about the mid east. When I was in the Army, I was over in Kuwait in Feb -August of 98. There were days of 120+ in the summer. Definately wouldn't want to go back.

30

I seen a video where a guy demonstrated switch grass. he poured oil in a bowl of water and and put some switch grass in it and it soaked right up. not sure how you get the switch grass out of the...

Ok, what is the hottest place you've ever had to work in?

I'll go first. In my long 3 years in the trade.....lol. Today took the cake. I was changing two 15 horse motors on air handlers in a...

It sucks to because he is usually a really smart guy that if you get stuck on something, he can help you. I feel like this is HVAC 101 though. I guess the only questions I ever had to ask him was...

oh yeah he's a mechanic. He's done some things before that I questioned but nothing as bad as this. I've argued it with him and he thinks this is a way to get 2 stages of cooling. It's only a...

Is it good to run outdoor less than 60 degree air across an R22 evap coil with mechanical cooling running? What problems can arise? Can it ice up? For the record I don't like it one bit but the...

Ok, my dad is very hard to buy for. This year my brother calls me up and said he's tired of hearing about the refrigerator that keeps frosting up and Dad has to defrost once every week or 2. Keep...

I googled it but I used carrier. You knew enough that it was Bryant. Plus, I also googled 581bev and got nothing. HVAC-Talk got me out of yet another jam. Thank you.

oh, you are a life saver. Yeah I thought he was a little off putting. I was going to try tech support. Isn't bryant owned by carrier?

Again thank you.

Where did you find it?

Got a rooftop unit I'm trying to find diagrams on. It's a BDP model 581BEV0901B0AA5A. I had a no cooling call on it the other day and they have the economizer wired into 2nd stage. I think this...

I have a couple of questions. How do you determine C S R without a meter? The only way I know is if it is marked, which defeats the purpose of it. If you come up to a compressor that isn't marked...

I wanted to try the world skills competition and tried to email a couple people to try and find out how. I suppose 3rd in the U.S. isn't going to be good enough to qualify...lol

You know a guy told me one time that he thought super heat was a myth :couch::eek2: He also told me all you have to do is charge it to 70 psi and its good. Put a little extra in if it has a...

Again good luck and don't forget to let us know how you did?

I competed in 2008. Finished 3rd at state. The 1st and 2nd place winners didn't want to go to nationals so I got to go. I finished 3rd at the nationals.

Definitely, study up on air flow,...

Not sure why it's not working. I clicked on it and it played for me.

Basically it is an introduction to a video series that teaches hvac in 3 courses. I just thought it was funny when he says...

Unless its an Air to Air HP, How can your condenser ever ice up...lol Please tell me more...lol
...

That Wiley Coyote will never learn.

So was the problem with the boiler not enough cumbustion air. Wouldn't surprise me with all that crap down there.
