@Nickerian91 3 года назад

no clue how powerful the AC was but can easily get a 4HP unit thats good for several rooms for around 2k here with installation :/ 2HP (good for 1 big room about 700 dollar with installation) If you dont want split unit and happy with a window one 200-400 dollar which is good enough for 1 room. They really rip you white people off :3

@SirNarax 2 года назад

@@Nickerian91 Price for AC is related to where you live, when you decide to install it, who is installing it and what you are trying to install it into. The price is NEVER static. If there are lots of people that can install it that drives prices down, if those people are busy (as they are deep into the summer and winter) the prices rise. If your house is particularly old or large that drives the price up and more still if you have a larger house with no existing systems in place. Additionally this is not an AC but rather it is a Heat Pump which is critically not the same thing and costs around 2,000 dollars by itself.

@Nickerian91 2 года назад

@@SirNarax as far as i know all split type ac units is able to heat aswell. The price is similar all over the world for the unit if u actually order it yourself and u find it on amazon / respective online platforms in the country. Installment is not complicated all u need is a tube tool and a vaccum pump. They force you to use installer else they claim you loose your warranty but anyone with basic handyman skills can do it themself.

@berated4541 3 года назад

As an HVAC installer it's always interesting to watch these types of video's. I know Brian is venturing into HVAC but just two things from the video. 1: This is something you should really fix! You do not, under any circumstances, want copper and galvanized metals touching. You get electrolysis! (which is rusting copper, and yes copper can rust) And on that note you really shouldn't have any part of your mini-split line set non insulated. This will not only lead to condensation anytime the unit it running (heat or cool mode), but will also negatively effect the efficiency of the unit. They are very sensitive! 2: The different sized ports on the condensing unit are for hooks ups to larger capacity head units (measured in btu)You may want to make sure each port ( A,B,C,D) can supply each head unit; and that there is a total btu the condenser is capable of handling, and attaching more than it's designed capacities (too many or too large of a head unit(s) can lead to many issues.) And a tip for part two, make sure you do a good pressure test on the system (over 500 psi for at least 30 min) and pull a vacuum below 300 microns before you release your refrigerant! With that many orbital flares ones bound to flare improperly!

The condenser needs to be off the ground on a wall mount or a stand if you're going to use it for heat, you may even blow out the coils in the winter using it like that. Also if you're using that for your main heat source it needs to be rated for low ambient temperatures if you live up north. It's also a good idea to have backup heat in case you can't get parts for that right away

@purplerain7771 3 года назад

BRIAN for future reference, where you cut the insulation around the straps. Because you have steel on copper, it'll cause faster erosion because of different metals. That can take years off of the life of your lines (and potentially the whole unit over time). Be careful crossing dissimilar metals!

interesting to see how differently you Canadians do your Air Conditioning from us here in South East Asia. Over here we typically just install a smaller power unit per room rather than 1 large compressor (what you called the condensor) for the whole house. Wall units are also more common as they are cheaper, easier to maintain and tend to provide better cooling compared to the ceiling cassette types. With a wall unit you can also just do back to back installs with the indoor and outdoor units mounted on the same wall, leading to much shorter cable and copper pipe runs

you need electrician, don't know about euro. but in NA you need to follow strict electrical code to install circuits and big appliances. regular person doesn't know these code/regulations unless they studied them or happen to be a electrician

@lewdgamerguy2071 3 года назад

Yeah you need something Called Part P (its a qualification/British standard) that ensures the person who does the work knows how to and where to fit the consumer/breaker board (altthough that may be an over simplifications) Also in the UK you cant touch the Mains cable running into the Household without your Suppliers permission (it usually runs into a box/device before the breaker, that shows whthere the cable is live and working before it hits your consumer unit and Also as a seperate Mains breaker that just kills the whole houses power (as its there property and its a way to make sure said person working on it is a registered and qualified Sparky) Im happy hes working on more Industrial Stuff (i liked watching him help linus install the new Blackboxes correctly)

@dubourg4 3 года назад

@@stillamitchinmybook6320 Where I live ( europe ) you need a few specific certifications to start the installation. Because the fluid used in air conditioning is highly damaging to the atmosphere, so you gotta make sure you don't let any get out of the system. Also, the gas is in fact a fluid changing state, and mixed with compressor oil. On a unit this size, you would probably need an oil collector, specially if you got a section where the gas go right up, like here.. And you gotta make sure the kit include a water filter ( it's here to make sure no trace of water goes into the compressor. ) Also since the fluid is in a liquid state at some point, pipe inclination can play a role. So there's a few tricks to avoid killing the compressor, and have the unit working as it should. I'm honestly not sure they're doing it correctly here. They seem to be skipping a lot of considerations. And, just like a computer, when it's installed approximately, it might still work, but also it might damage the hardware over time, not perform as expected, not start at all, or in the case of cooling units release polluting gas in the atmosphere (The last part is why europe require a certification to install such units. Like, fuck up your installation all you want, bu you need to prove that you're able to not pollute doing so. ). All in one, although most of the ACTUAL day to day work is installing the unit and the pipes/cables, and can be handled by a competent carpenter or plumber, there's also a few specific stuff that should be considered about how and where you install them. And obviously, you need to be able to handle electricity to hook it up. I'd say it's nothing someone already working in construction can't learn in a few month with a competent teacher. But it's also not something you should just "improvise" with approximate knowledge.

I just installed two full sets of these (4 units for the upstairs and 4 down) be 100% sure the ceiling cassettes are level if they aren't it'll drip water out of the vent, and you may need to add coolant to the system because the pre-charge on a lot of these systems only have enough for 100ft worth of lines and the lines will freeze and drop if there isn't enough coolant.
