As someone who isn't an HVAC tech, really appreciate your simple yet effective explanations of what the various bits of these units do and how they fit together. Unfortunately everyone skimps on PM in every industry... and the results are always bad.

I would talk to the owner for permission to acid test the oil and at the same time just replace both liquid and suction filters (in a month or two). Good choice on the filters!!!

Chris. I love your proffesioalism/ work. I've been doing this trade probably 2x long as you have and once in a while I learn something else from you.. That's a compliment to you.. I'm sure your like me also with learning something new everyday. A bad day it is for me if I can't think of something new learned I don't understand CA though. Here in stupid IL no one would do or anyone pay what you do there vs. replacing. No offense in any of my comments. Hopefully you have not blocked me!?

@mcbeenb 2 года назад

I appreciated the followup, clarification on the drain trap and cleanout setup. On previous vids, I have been concerned on how you prevented air backflow into the unit. The cap on the unit side is a perfect solution. Love the elevation steps for extra protection.

@IcebergZim Месяц назад

This was a very informative video. It really helped me a lot because I was experiencing these same symptoms with a 4,5ton AC. Had restriction in the metering device

@arthouston7361 2 года назад

Changing the orifices has about a 45% success rate. Too many times the evap itself has an issue internally. I did not think it was possible until I had done three units over five years and had a metering/suction pressure issue when the job was done. A new evap and header works 100% of the time, so they are all quoted that way. No muss, no fuss.

Just had this same exact problem today and heating up the metering devices didn't work, this video clears up why and answered all my questions. Whenever I come across a similar problem I remember watching one of your video from the past on it and gets me through those frustrating calls. -My boss always told me when I was an apprentice. "You should be paying me for me teaching you like the university does!" Haha thank you for your helpful content.

I used to use all copper RTU drains because the plumber's plastic pipe gets all brittle & cracks. I started using plastic electrical conduits for RTU drains. 10x better resistance to UV and cheaper than copper.

Love your content, keep it up. Little tip, for anyone interested, on the first Tee for the condensate trap one can solder a female adapter and put a brass plug with some PTFE tape on it to produce a better seal on the suction side of your wet seal in your trap. Thank you again for sharing your knowledge with us.

@throttlebottle5906 2 года назад

cost is far higher, at least here in USA. he could smear it with a blue "locking" pipe thread compound and it would seal nearly perfect air tight ( at very low pressures)

@gbinman 2 года назад

the old saying is "those who can, do; those who cannot, teach". I am not certain that it's true but often sure seems to be. I love these videos and I have literally no interest personally in commercial HVAC. I enjoy the diagnostic process. The same sort of logic, I have used initially in automotive with vehicles, then as a career paramedic with humans, and with a computer networking business. The media are different but the logical process is spot on the same. Big picture, think about what is happening and what could fail. Rule out potential causes. Identify the problem and remediate.

@luisnew6738 2 года назад

what I have found in Alaska roof top units, is they are clogged with cottonwood fuzz in the summer and snow drifts that cover the Entire unit and freeze the condenser coil and fans. because the units placed directly on the floor of the roof and the fans pull everything into the coils.

@karlschoen7297 2 года назад

Really good video/ music 👍

@actechformallyyomama746 2 года назад

What I’ve found that most often clogs the piston is high head pressure. When the condenser motor quits. This causes the compressor to run hot,breaking down the insulation of the windings. In the video I could see an after market motor. This is really bad with the larger Carriers with 2 motors. One quits and starts spinning backwards. 410 units are the worst. Always check the bearings on inspections. Replace them before they fail. Stay safe.
