A lot of techs bash Goodman. I haven’t had any more problems with them over other brands. If installed correctly and maintained regularly, they last a long time. Brands like Trane and Carrier are overpriced and obtaining replacement parts can be a nightmare for the service provider and customer.
Ted, this is a Compliment for you! I know you really don't need it, but here it is anyway. You are one of the best techs out there and your years of experience and knowledge put you way ahead of any arm chair warriors. Any experienced tradesman can recognize your worth. Stay positive and keep TEACHING. 👍
I think you'll be glad to know that I don't have any idea how you do what you do, so I can't second guess you. I just find your explanations of your process educational. So thanks.
This is definitely one of those doing what you have to do. I’ve done it many times myself in my very short Hvac career of only about 5 years. Gas and go. She’s gonna croak eventually and when that happens it’ll be you putting another unit in its place. No harm no foul, no big deal. It’s working for now and everyone’s happy end of story lol. Enjoyed the video.
Hey Ted I’m a carpenter not an hvac contractor but the same rule applies I do my job and you do yours and if I want your opinion I’ll give it to you thanks for what you do And by the way common sense isn’t very common anymore
I approve of this HVAC service job. The one condenser looks like it was a salvaged item at some point since the coil fins were pushed over a lot yet the exterior case was undamaged. Whatever the reason, it still lives and sounds okay. I'm not so fond of the condensate drains dripping where they are at all, sloppy work/design. Seems like the attic work was done rather well. You never know though until you get the friggn attic cleaned out and inspect things. Looks like they have been waiting for the flooring company to show up a long while. One the next change out job(s), let us know what models they are and what they do such as single stage, 2 stage or variable, communicating proprietary everything etc. Would be good conversation to know what folks decided to go with or why they went with low or high end. Also, re-using supply and return registers vs. replace with the efficient ones might be a conversation to test.
These are the calls you walk away and tell them to call you back when it is clear to the units. I will never understand how people can be so damn inconsiderate. They know that there is a problem yet make no effort to make access to the equipment. You have a lot more patience than I do Theodore.👍👍🇨🇦
INt there an argument surrounding spilling gas into the atmosphere you mentioned topping it off year on year shouldn't you really have repaired or replaced regardless what the customer wants ,surely there throwing good money after bad ??
Leak is likely in the evaporator. I do this stuff all day as well and sometimes question why i watch others do what I do, then I remember i don't know it all and experience is the best teacher
That's cool I don't care what they said Ted you're right and that race car looks like think on my old boss used to build I have not seen him for a while I think still build them
I’m every bit as proud of you as you are your self…… lol people with negative comments just don’t know what it’s like to be punched in the face. The inter webs has taken repercussions out of the equation. That’s why people talk shit in the comments
@@TedCookHVAC you talk about all the armchair warriors telling how they are better technicians than you and how you would like congratulate them but they should set higher goals... I was just playing into that. Cheers Ted!
Yea... it is all part of the plan lol. Leading trolls by the nose into clicking/commenting on my videos (getting me paid) in order to "argue" their point is like shooting fish in a barrel.
probably had it ran to the ground, with elbows and pipe out away from the foundation/slab. either they got broke off on accident or someone ripped them to get better cleaning access.
Well Ted, here's the deal, I'm the best there is, plain and simple, I wake up in the morning and I piss excellence and nobody can hang with my stuff, I'm just a big hairy American HVAC fixing machine! 😂😂😂 But on a serious note, why are you putting dye in the system? We all know you're not gonna fix it, you're gonna sell'em a new system.
Id let the nay says do as they please and never say a word some talk just 2 get a rise out of u looks 2 b working do r let them live rent free in ur brain
Sounds like someone has a bad case of Butthurt. Dont let these people bother you . Just do what you do. I like the technical aspect of your videos not the whining. Dont feed into what they want you to do Ted.
Next time you bring him a car to work on make sure to fill the entire inside with stuff oh and of course I am a better tech than you. You know I had to say that
I think you need to stop being so sensitive. When you put yourself out in the public forum you are open for criticism, that’s the way it is. And I’m a better tech then you are. 😂
