TFW you're looking for A/C repair videos and you see the Warped Perception guy.
*So amazingly quiet and **Fastly.Cool** in my room! 42db is at a whisper level. I bought 2 and installed myself.Very sturdy bracket and easy to adjust to fit windows of different size. Absolutely fabulous units!!*
Brother, you just saved me $125. Three weeks of gas, a week of food, some new school clothes for my kids. Blessings to you.
I know this is a 7-year-old video, but this just saved me from a $90+ service call that was 5 days away. The vents were blowing out "luke-warm" air, and all it took was pushing the fans in the condenser and the air is back to normal! Not sure why it randomly happened now since it's the beginning of July, but regardless I'm grateful that a free KZread video was all the help I needed!
This types of videos are what KZread should mainly consist of.
This guy's go straight to the point. He doesn't waste time like other videos that I have seen. He gets straight to the point. I learn more in his video then my teacher of hvac. THANK YOU BEST VIDEO EVER
Dude, I'm not exactly sure when the outside fan kicked back on and the ac started working, but it's working - thanks a million!!
The design makes this AC a possible alternative to ductless DYI systems. It works great. The remote control could be more visual aid oriented like a backligh design. Is impossible to see the lcd at least for me. Easy install kzread.infoUgkx_hHgTlzH3uk31Fe2RVS3xEbXHGaN_z5Tation. Came on time . Great comfort around the house 5 🌟 again. Follow mfg instructions for care and all and this should be the only AC you need for those of is that don't live in new homes with central AC
Several days ago only hot air would come out. I called out an HVAC guy and paid $320.00 to get my AC fixed. Then a couple of days later my second unit did the same thing. Now I'm thinking, "Did this guy sabotage my second unit?" I know, what a thought. But for both units to go out within days of one another? Anyway, this time I went to You Tube University. I watched your video and a few others and was pointed toward the capacitor. I followed your instructions, and now $28.00 later and the time and gas it took to pick up the part, my AC unit blowing out cold air again! I'm not mad at professionals who make a living off of customers without the knowledge or time to DIY. But I am immensely grateful for people like you who graciously, and so competently, make knowledge available so people with the time and inclination to DIY can do so. $320.00 vs $28.00 Incredible!!!
I learned more here than in 25 years of asking questions to HVAC techs who have come to my house. So great to see a person who talks honestly and tries to help others, especially during these times. Many thanks. I would hire you in a skinny minute if you lived in my area. Bravo sir.
You already saved me a lot of money. I was able to make a quick diagnosis based on your instructions and with a new thermostat, I was up and running again. Thank you so much!
Thank you sooooooooo, much!!! I left the house for 20 min and when I came home it felt like a sauna. The thermostat read 82° and I started freaking out. My problem was the compressor fan. A small push and it started right up. Again THANK YOU!!!
How are you the only one to show the paperclip test? Brilliant! Solved !! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much, Matt! You saved me a service call. It only took a couple minutes to troubleshoot and now I have wonderful cool air blowing.
Woke up at 3AM on a Sunday with the A/C out. After getting over the initial shock and drying off from a pool of sweat (gross!) I stumbled across this video. BEST VIDEO EVER! Took me step by step on diagnosing the problem. Couldn't believe it was the capacitor (flex capacitor, lol). Got it fixed the next day and cooled the house down. Saved hundreds of moolah. Thanks bro. This was really cool (no pun intended - well maybe a little).
Thanks Man! Saved us a service call. Also, I always wondered how these things worked. It never clicked in my head to check the blower/furnace filters. Cheers!
The best video I've seen for this. Thanks. Easy to follow and straight to the point.
Outstanding, informative, thorough, and professional! Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! You saved me so much time and trouble. My air was still running, but stopped blowing cool air. After checking the temp of the 2 tubes going into the furnace, I checked the outside unit and found the landscapers had severed the thermostat wire. I simply had to strip the 2 wire ends, and re-attach, and it worked. Thank you for the great video!
You. Are. AWESOME! Your concise and easy to follow troubleshooting steps made diagnosing our problem really simple! It ended up being our capacitor that went bad. It only cost $12 for a new one! Soooooooo glad we didn't have to pay someone hundreds to replace that for us.
A DIY gem, helped me solve my A/C problem is a flash. Thank-you.
simple and very helpful
Thanks SO much for the video. My wife and I just bought our first home, and never dealt with AC units before. Turns out our fan was stuck. Used a knife sharpening rod from our kitchen set to get it going (night time so didnt want to go look for a stick), gave it a good push and now its running (scared the hell out of me when the blades started turning and hitting the sharpening rod - lol). Thanks for the help!!!!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Today was the first day I tried my A/C I've "had my A/C on" for 6 hours, and the temp. went up to 84, from 80. I was able to diagnose and fix my issue, I can feel the difference already. You are amazing and I appreciate you so much.
thanks, that was really thorough, well thought out and very helpful!
You just saved me a bunch of money. Here in Phoenix were going to have 101" temps this weekend and I have company coming in town and my air wasn't keeping up with the rising temps...I started troubleshooting...new air filter didn't help but cleaning the outside unit did the trick! Thank you!
Nice walk-thru troubleshooting! Thanks!
You showed me some good techniques to resolve a/c not starting issue. You are the best. Thank you very much.
Right to the point, well condensed ac guide. Thank you!
Great vid man. Straight forward, not a lot of unnecessary jargon. much appreciated (I subscribed too) Awesome job!
the most amazing video ever thank you
The best video with simple walk through. Thanks
I watched this video from start to finish and it helped me a great deal! We had recently moved into a new home and was wondering what we got ourselves into with respect to the HVAC system we inherited. We thought maybe the insulation in the attic is THAT bad that the 2nd floor felt like a sauna on a summer night, or that we were doing something ridiculously stupid like not knowing where the "on" switch is to help the adjustments we were making on the thermostat actually happen. I went through the checks he had described from the basement inside the home to outside. I went almost all the way through his examples of things that could be going wrong. I soon discovered that my problem was that sometime before we had moved in, an animal had chewed through electrical wire running from the outside unit into the home. It was an easy replacement of a short portion of wire that resulted in my system running as it should! I am thankful to have watched this video and appreciate the help buddy!
This is an excellent video filled with expert knowledge! Thank you.
Great direct and to the point. Thank you so much
OMG super great video I wished you were located in Texas as the techs here seem to not know what they are doing. I've had AC issues for two years now. This video makes me wanna troubleshoot the issue myself but unfortunately I reside in an apt.
My fan was stuck! Thank you so much! My ac has been working intermittently, and of course when the repair guy came out, I left work to meet him and walked in and it was a brisk 70 degrees in here.... so I couldn’t prove my issue. he checked all fluids, they were great, and tried to tell me it had to be the air filter (which I replace every two months with high micron filter for my allergies), yet it wasn’t barely a month old, and it wasn’t dirty. I knew it had to be something simple that I was over looking. Thank you for your informative, yet to the point video. I now know everything to check next time something goes wrong!
I just watched this video and it was super helpful-saved me from calling an emergency AC guy (for tonight at least). Thanks for sharing such useful information!
Totally worked. Thank you!
thanks on the response. i called a tech and he ended up putting two pounds of freon and since i helped with the tear down and assembly cause i wanted to learn, he only charged me $112. I thought it was fair. It was hot and we had an abnormal sight of an infestation of killer mosquitos in the area. So, between the mosquito bites, and our sweat I think we did ok. We couldn't find the leak though? He said that it might be too small to see. I asked him if there was a color die but he said that my unit is too new and would not work well with anything but the right freon? I am not sure on that explanation but I was happy that I had A/C. Thanks for your info, it helped a great deal. GE.
My fan wasn't running. The stick thing actually worked. Thank you!
Very informative. My AC not blowing cold air, will try some of your troubleshooting tips.
Thank you. You just saved me some time and money. After watching your video, I cancelled my appointment, turned on the thermostat and it works. I'm going to clean out the filter. Thanks again!
Some people have a knack for turning a simple idea into a complicated 10 minute explanation....this video is just the opposite. Great job!!!
Very well explain Indeed..Thank you!!
great job of explaining
Thank you! Very Helpful!
Hey! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this.

Thank you! It was a dirty filter and tripped breaker!! You are awesome, thanks for putting such a helpful video on KZread. :D
great diy ac guide, not sure I recommend but if you really want to do it, this video is awesome!
Fantastic video, please post more about this!
Thanks for the prompt response. I upgraded the thermostat to digital a couple days ago. The whole system is at least 7 years old. That's how long I've been living in the house and I've never done any work to the AC unit until now. I will try what you suggested. Keep you post
This video was very helpful! It did fixed my AC!!!! Thanks!
You're awesome! Your explanation was to the point and the house is cooling off!
thanks mate, that was well explained you're the man
Wonderful educational video. Thanks
My brother you are amazing thanks for the very detailed and simplified explanations. I feel like a more confident tech now thank you. God bless.
Nice and simple and clear video thanks it help me a lot. Now I got to call because there is noise in that line you said.
You have done a very good instructional video. The step by step instruction was explained in a way that even high school kids could understand. It is 80 in our house with a 4 year old and a 8 month old and the temps are supposed to get in the 100s. Just watching your video I can figure out what is wrong. Thanks greatly
Great video. Very helpful. Thanks

Thank you so much!!!! Really helpfully...
Great video, thanks!

Great video! What should I do if my suction line is warm?
Thanks man now I can act like I know what I'm talking about when I call out the tech. Low on refrigerant hissing liquid coil Thank you again
Great video. Thanks for posting!
This was crazy helpful.
Thank you so much
Great video and info.
Thanks man you helped me so much now I have cold air again!!!
You saved my life bud thanks 👍🏻
Thanks for this video sir I am a Hvac technician here in Dubai UAE
You're the GREATEST man! Looks like my capacitor is shot, you helped alot. thank you from Canada
Your walkthrough was one of the best explanation for troubleshooting. If it’s a wiring disconnect with the Rama stat and ac unit what’s the process to fix it? With Covid we really don’t want people in the house, other than the basement
Good information.
Dude I really think you just saved me like $200 dollars! Thank You so much for breaking it down.
this guys is the best, thanks man for the info.
That’s great information
Thanks for the help.
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH

awesome vid, it help me a lot, the most thing that I like it was the comment in front of your beers, " If I help you, you help me" I always say that, if you help me I help you back no matter what, thanks ...
God bless you man. Keep being humble my brother 👍
