Old TRANE Gas Furnace repair 

You're a good person to worry over that old unit so the people can have heat. We need more like you!

This is why I always try to salvage parts off of changeouts and any parts I feel can be used on another system. For how long it can take to get a part in, having a backup until the actual part comes in can really help a customer with the stress of no heat. Especially if there’s kids in the house or elderly. My co workers say it’s not a good idea to reuse parts and always try to get oem but to be able to get them temporary heat until you can actually fix it is a huge relief

Good job Ted, ethically handled and made sure it was safe before anything else. Went the extra mile on this one going through as many tests you had to just to make sir they have heat; but safely and ethically. Darn RPMs of the old one holding you up haha!

You have one of the few decent HVAC channels left.

Why a new furnace? you got it repaired :)

Sometimes you have got to go that extra mile, excellent service is rewarded with extra work. I find your work ethic and ability quite remarkable. Salutations from the UK.

Interestingly enough, Ted professes himself as an hvac pro, which is very far from the truth. He's a philosopher, a song from an Era long gone, an ASMR wonder and an island of peace and normalcy in these crazy times. Stay awesome Ted

That’s a good catch! I would have been looking at a blockage in the flue pipe. Lol

Thanks for the tutioral. I learn more every video. Good Job

Even though you may not like the adjustable pressure switches it looks like it would be a good idea to have one on your truck.

You are a positive force for the HVAC industry Ted.

Ted and Steve Lav don’t do it for the money. It’s passion

Wow Ted I wish everyone repaired things with your mindset

MacGyver would be proud of you giving the client heat. Thxs for the vids!

A interesting temporary repair Ted, i always look foward to that squeeky van door on arriving at your next job 👍 Au

Solid commitment to the customer Ted, great detective work! Looking forward to seeing the new install.

Why didn't you have a jimmy wiggler in your pocket to jump the circuit?😄

We had a dead bird in one of our induced draft motors. The motor was fine once the bird was removed

Nice Job Ted! It’s always best to keep a adjustable pressure switch!

Well, at least that jungle didn't have a casket in it; do you all remember that one?

Why not put the original inducer motor back on? Puting that NOS mounting piece on may have fixed everything.

I'd like to know where can you find this gentleman, we need more guys like him

Did you check vent pipe for obstruction

You're wayyyy better than Mr. Replace the unit Mikey pipes

Have you ever considered an LED headlamp & and a small magnetic tool.tray. I've lost a lot of hex screws working on my home unit as has my ac friend.

The flsmes rolled out so i knee the inducer was weak

A question to all, I replaced the control board and the 2 roll out switches and the main thermal switch on my 20 year old furnace "International Comfort" 80% but now the fans start and stop for about a second even when the thermostat is off, did I cross a wire somewhere?

Nice job. Those customers are lucky to have found you

Hello , Mr.Ted ,could you tell us the inducer how much cost for part,if don’t mind

That furnace looks like a 2002 year model looking at the serial number.

I’ve had the pressure tubing become blocked with dirt.

This shouldn't take but a few minutes, That's what Napoleon Said.

That’s the difference between a tech and a mechanic/tech 🏆🏆🏆🏆 Going 110% for the customer guarantees getting the change out in the end! 💰💰💰

That was a great fix

Good job Ted your the best!!!

For the sake of your knees, you should move to the land of basements

So, there are actually two variants of those transitions that Trane used for those furnaces, both of which should be available from your Trane or American standard supply house. I personally stock about two of each on my truck, might be worth stocking on your truck in case you ever run into a broken one again. Probably going to be more common as these systems get older in age.

That’s a finished good job. Indulge yourself. Go have some Sushi 🍣 😎🤣

There are a lot of technicians that would've thrown up their hands and said its to dilapidated even for a temporary repair its good to see there are still a few good technicians who will do what needs to be done to help keep people worm.

Thanks for putting a bandaid on that unit so they can have some heat until the replacement is installed. Good customer service.

The guy in New York would of pushed a Bosch Install lol

It'll be 10 for a new inducer motor, but we'll throw in a new unit for free.

Do something temporarily until you get new unit. Nothing wrong with that good job Ted

Tenacious Ted! 👍

Your right about other service men you have gone beyond that most have done

Could have tried mounting the original switch in the horizontal position so gravity would help the pull down. Maybe that would be enough???

Good job ... Got them heat & you got the replacement ... thx

Time for some 3D printing ;-)

So , I guess you bested the first tech on price ?

Yes 😅

Way too stay with it 😊

Awesome job

👍🏻👍🏻

Sounds like it might need a New induced draft Blower.

Great job. Just like me I try to help out customers when I can also. A learning curve.

Put some oil on the bears
