Good demo of condenser fan relationship to high head pressure. and also rise in head pressure if fan is out and compressor shutting off on high head pressure control. Thanks Jim a great video. You are a great teacher.
I really enjoy your videos Jim ! I went out and got magnets and eye bolts and made a couple of hangers just like yours. I also got one of those kneeling mats. That will be a life saver ! Keep up the good work bud !
Hey Jim really love your videos. I'm starting out as a Hvac-R guy fresh out of tech school and your videos really help me learn how to do the job and do it right too. Great videos keep it up! I was wondering if you had any words of wisdom for a new guy out in the field?
great job. nice video. I was wondering how sure you were the fans will work that you tied the wires before testing the units at the end. I know you need to tie the ones closer to the fans before testing
Great Video Jim, and I like the way you work and explain the job, Sir, I have question for you, are you using any helper to hold the ladder or carry the stuff with you up or you doing all of this by yourself, thanks in advance
Jim hope you are well not heard anything off you for a while maybe you’ve taken a well earned retirement if so enjoy it and keep yourself healthy good luck from the uk 🇬🇧
sir Jim I thought its a r22 system but I saw your refrigerant tank was 404a? and the charge is 56 psi at low side, instead of 15-25psi for R404a ? so what was that?
Nice Job Jim, Check out a Century motor Mfg# 9721 it's a 155/ 208-230, Rev, has mounting spades front and back, I carry 4 of them in the truck. I use this motor on evaporators, Condensing units and some ice makers, great motor. Might save a trip to the supply house, My closest supply house is an hour away. Again Nice Job.
In France you can't connect the pressure gauge like you did. We need to first vacuum the pressure gauge and the hoses, and then with a "refrigerant loose free" fitting, we connect it properly. By the way, no liquid is lost. To disconnect the gauge from the system, we force the compressor to pump down by turning the solenoid valve off, or by closing the high side valve. So the liquid in the hose is sucked through the suction line as well as the vapor. No refrigerant into the atmosphere.
That sucks. Lots of work. You have to carry a vacuum pump to every unit you go to then. Not all units can be pumped down either. Here in Argentina though there are no regulations lol
I live in a senior housing complex. My apt is over the kitchen where the walkin cooler is located. I can hear and FEEL the cooler running 24/7 in my apt. It drives me crazy. Maintenance attempted to put more insulation around it....but resulted in no difference in the annoyance I experience in my apt. If they can send a man to the moon....why can't there be quiet refrigeration units ?????? My landlord stated that my only recourse is to move to another apt in the building which requires paying a $500. transfer fee. That's a lot of money for a senior to come up with.
It would be very helpful to describe what pipe fittings, etc you are hooking up to. Also the hookups are not visible due to being out of the screen view.
hi Jim, thanks for sharing wonderful videos...i have one question, do you use different hoses for servicing different refrigerant or just the two for any refrigerant?
robby rob is the company to get it done so far as know how we are in line to be one of the best truth and honesty speck for its self and affordable can't be beat. .!!!
hello Jim, :) just want to ask, at this video the rotation of 2 fan is clockwise base on its blade right? by the way thank you for sharing your good video, :) t.c.
In another video, you spoke about dropping around 73 pounds in a life-style change based on Paleo method. My question is how long did it take? Also, I really enjoy your videos.
Hi Jim one question from beginner: When you connect your Testo 550 and start getting reading how you know the pressure on high and low side is normal level or not... ? Im looking the PT Chart but can see only if the temperature is correct for the pressure... but how to know that pressure is good or not!? Pleaase begging you got answer you or someone which know better that stuff.... Thanks in advance
Miss having fresh content from you, but wish you well in youtube retirement. Was that an optical delusion on the two fans running in opposite directions? Was the dual safety pressure switch something that was added on, perhaps when the R22-R404 conversion was done? It took me a while to fully appreciate your style of YT presentation, ... it is not for the instant gratification, attention deficit crowd. In any case, thanks for sharing and educating. Be well.
Wouldn't you first checked to make sure the coils were clean? Then check the mechanical systems to see if the fan motors & compressor motors were running? How do you know it wasn't a bad contactor coil or fan capacitor or fan pressure switch ? I was taught you never put gauges until you checked every thing else first.
deltafour1212 the man knows his stuff, if you have work in refrigeration you would know. It doesnt need to be in video. We know well to check basic as soon as we walk in. And plus you can notice both fans not spinning freely. Changing caps might work but most likely die in a few months
since the other motor was running before,they sometimes use the sam ground,it should have at least tried to start.i say bad pressure swiotch cut in cut out not right
