It's hard to stop a trane. Even harder to get the parts to get them going again ! Love these outfits generously giving us fixed times for warranty repairs when we use up their allotted time JUST getting our tools across these it center and (what's left of the) mall roofs.

@AllTattedUp13 10 месяцев назад

I used to service a mall that had rubber tension roof with small ass gangways to walk on. Kicker is, since it was rubber, mall wouldn't let u carry your tools across it, not even in ur pockets. Everything had to helicopter craned to you. Don't matter if u was just changing a capacitor. Heli crane had to come in lol. Shit was nuts.

@user-ft5qi9jn5l 11 месяцев назад

Great video. Honestly though, I would not have replaced the contactor unless there were signs of wear like arcing or heat damage. From the video, it looked like those contacts were as good as new with no other signs of wear or damage. Changing a perfectly good part like that is just a waste of materials, time, and the customers money.

@IQDave 4 месяца назад

One thing to remember is for large commercial units, downtime is way more costly than installing a contactor. I’m not a fan of the shotgun method usually (replacing all suspect parts), but can see why he did it in this case. He brought the parts up and not much cost to replace while he was there. It wasn’t HVAC, but in my field engineer days, often travel time (high cost) was a huge influence on whether or not to replace available parts.

I always change the fan blade with the motor. There's a reason that motor seized up and a lot of the time it's from an off balanced blade. Plus sometimes those blades don't want to come off and you end up bending them while using a puller

We always replace the blade as well.....its cheap insurance and the customers will always go for it...haven't had one yet who wouldn't. These are expensive pieces of equipment...customers don't want breakdowns....they don't mind spending a few hundo more for a blade too. Had lots of issues with Trane motors....had 2 bad out of the box condenser motors from Trane for intellipaks last year in a row. Plus the counter guys aren't that great and seem to always screw things up.

@arthouston7361 17 дней назад

I always get a new rain shield when I'm going to do this on a rooftop unit. The old motor had a small one, but I install one that gives me assurance that the upper bearing does not get rain or snow on it. Otherwise, good job.

@josemartinez-4570 11 месяцев назад

Good job Zack but my experience I would replace the fan blade to you never know the fan blade can be out of balance and took that motor out. My experience I did a condenser fan motor one time I went back couple days later on a call back the fan blade had broken off. I did inspect the fan blade and everything’s fine. I think what happened in the fan blade was out of balance, just my experience.

@smokeyplays7183 6 месяцев назад

@efficientheatingcooling 10 месяцев назад

I always show up to a condenser fan motor change with a new blade. If the old blade is in good shape I will save it for emergency repairs. I just see so many blades on older units unwilling to come off the shaft OR have micro cracks in them. I've also seen a handful of blades that cracked and went straight into the condenser. I will admit in your case that blade does look to be in descent shape. I have also made the mistake of putting my puller on the blade hub and accidentally hitting the set screw holes. At that point, it's game over and time for a new blade. Had to learn all these things via experience.

@henryt9254 9 дней назад

I'm not a pro, but more of a DIYer. Just eye-balling these commercial units tells me the quality is several notch above the residential units. Seems to me they are also easier to work with. No crawl space, attics or obstacles hindering access to the unit.

@Chris-mo9gt Месяц назад

Just had an a/c replaced due to not cooling great, definitely still blowing cool air though. It’s R-22 though so recharging with new stuff isn’t allowed. The unit was 42 years old and had to be replaced with something that if lucky it will last 15.

Lets talk about other good things to do and not saying what you did was bad at all no sir ! Good stuff !! When a hp occur and you need a motor, should cover the hole of the fan shrout with cardboard or something to prevent other hp trip and getting cooling. Didnt talk about that drip plug that can be usefull to know when you change a condenser fan motor. They have to be on top and not at the bottom. Condensation make inside drop by gravity Also, should get a big picture of everything before getting good to go… filters may be clogged up or 1 on 2 straps maybe broken on that monster blower….
