I watch hvac every night and you are my favorite. Thank you for helping us to learn. I ordered a 521 immediately and I will certainly enjoy hearing the compressor kick in the first time.

For those that might still be confused, like I was when first starting, the #5 wire goes to common on the contactor, not the capacitor...1 to run, 2 to start, 5 to common...Thats potential relays...Again, that common, for #5 from the relay, goes ON THE CONTACTOR power out..I've seen people get this wrong, confusing common, but this video is clear and well done.

Glad to hear it's helpful! 🙂👍

If you have a clamp meter with an Inrush function, it’s possible to measure the current flowing into the compressor before and after the install of these hard start kits. There’s usually a significant difference and it’s just satisfying to know that the thing is helping your compressor do it’s thing.

Great video! Just a thought: maybe show people how to clean that dirty condenser, and talk about the consequences of a filthy condenser 😊

After watching your video, I installed a 521 3 wire kit that I bought probably almost two years ago but never got around to. Turns out when I opened the electric panel up there was already a Supco SPP7s installed. I pulled that out and put the 521 kit in and I went from loud starts and dimming lights to barely noticeable when the compressor kicks on. I replaced the capacitor at the same time after watching your capacitor video. Turns out neither were the root of my no AC problem as it was the float switch under the fan in my attic - which I determined after watching yet another of your videos. Fantastic resources - thank you!

Thank you sir! Just installed a new run capacitor and a hard start about 45 min ago with the help of your videos. Salute sir

Me too 🎉😊 Saved $600 contractor quoted me.

I came back to this a year later, a year spent trying to better understand how these devices work. On looking at this again, I was surprised the old capacitor is often left in place, in parallel with the new system. So, rather than replacing a bad component, these devices are designed to turn a PSC motor with no start relay into a CSCR motor. So even after the potential relay cuts out, current can still flow through the old capacitor to the start windings, so the old capacitor remains a true parallel run capacitor. Presumably you want to be sure that old run cap is still good. I was also a little surprised that many of these 3 in 1 kits sold by Amazon don't even mention the capacitance of their new capacitor on their product info, or the design for the relay. Today I used your video to springboard better understanding of the mystery behind the HVAC ton, the 12,000 BTU's of energy needed to melt a ton of ice on the Hudson river. How are you, Jay?

Am a new subscriber and fed up giving my $ away to HVAC co who's keeping me in the dark abt parts. Thanks for all your help. Much needed

Thanks to this guy, I install the hard start kit and it work. But I also instead a new capacitor since it is completely dead. I manage to orient the 3 wire hard start kit in an upright position as indicated on the diagram and on this video...but it is so damm hard to drill a hole and it was hot outside. In the end, I just used tape and hope that it stick. I turn it on and wahla....everything running again. Even the fan is spinning. It wasn't spinning before. First time opening up the air conditioner, I noticed someone had installed a hard start kit compressor previously. So I ended up leaving it there and hooking up both start kits. This is my first time doing this fix and it is a life saver because I have no idea who to call for help. And it is summer and it's hot, I cannot stand the heat.

I installed one of these 5-2-1 Hard Start kits (CSRU2) just like in this video in a Goodman unit from 2016 and it let all the smoke out of the Hard Start Capacitor, looks like I may have a defective unit so I have another on order. Thanks for making this video, I was able to double check that it wasn't me that wired it wrong LOL!

Thanks my Man !! Used your video yesterday and installed a 521 Kit on our 1 year old, 4 Ton, 14 Seer split A/C system that was installed last July. Two things that I noticed after install was that system is a lot quiter on start up and the loud noise that the compressor used to make at the end of each cycle was a lot quiter too and almost non-existent !!

As. Handyman I have been following your channel for quite a while. I really learn plenty. I did this upgrade to my AC system a couple of years ago as I discovered that the inrush amp draw was nearing the locked rotor amp limited listed on the the unit for the compressor. Prior to installing it the unit was struggling to start. You could hear the difference afterwards. It’s an amazing difference. It makes me wonder why AC manufacturers don’t include a “hard start kit” as a normal part of the units. Built in obsolescence perhaps...? Anyway, I enjoy your extremely clear, professionally prepared videos. Your an excellent teacher! I’m always looking forward to see more of your videos! Thank you very much!

Thank you Richard! Glad to hear that my videos have been helpful and that the hard start made a big difference for your unit! As far as I know, many manufacturers actually did include a hard start capacitor and potential relay (basically a 521 kit) in older units. But to cut costs, this "un-necessary" part gradually started being omitted in newer units until now, when it's only the premium expensive units that still come with them. Well it actually kills two birds with one stone for them - the compressor does not last as long so people have to buy a new unit sooner and their production costs slightly decrease.

You are correct that the start capacitor should be installed with the terminals up. As per the instructions: "Mount the 5-2-1® Kit potential relay and start capacitor in a suitable location within the electrical box. The potential relay should be mounted with the mounting tab up. The capacitor should be mounted with the terminals up." REASON: Most Capacitors are oil filled and could be subject to leakage therefore it is always recommended to minimize the chance of leakage

A good analogy I've heard for potential relay wiring is "5-2-1 Can She Run" so 5 to Common, 2 to Start winding and 1 to Run winding

The original capacitor lasted till April 18th, 2018 and was replaced with a Powerwell 30+5 MFD 330 to 440v dual run cap (which is the recommended). Can I install a more powerful capacitor than that one or do you recommend installing a 5 to 1 booster with a new stock size capacitor? Thanks man and congratulations on moving to Hawaii! I vote you document/film the move for the memories =)

thanks.

Another great video. Thanks for posting. One word of caution. I bought a 521 start kit going on the company recommendation. I have a 4 ton unit so I bought the CSR-U2 which is for 3 1/2 to 5 ton units. While I was waiting for it to be delivered I found the originally equipment manufacturer (OEM) part for my compressor. The start capacitor used is an 88 to 108 µF. When I received the CSR-U2 I noticed the capacitor was 189 to 227 µF ( these specs are clearly marked on the capacitor itself). Looking into the CSR-U1 product (for 1 to 3 ton units) it had an 88 to 108 µF capacitor. Needless to say I sent back the CSR-U2 and got the CSR-U1. Always try and find out what OEM part is used before installing these or just buy the OEM part.

OK...I'm confused. My outdoor Goodman unit (2.5 Tons), has a factory dual start capacitor ( for both compressor and fan), rated at 35/5 uF. The 521 kit for 1-3.5 ton unit has it's own capacitor, as you say....but it's function is slightly altered from a normal unit that undergoes a full, unaltered, hard-start. Therefore a "match" of uF is not warranted between the OEM capacitor and the one provided by the kit.....correct? A hard start kit give the compressor added starting torque momentarily by paralleling a LARGER capacitor with the compressor run capacitor. Parallel the capacitance of the circuit may be 180-240 mfd and as the amperage drops on start up... the relay drops the start capacitor out of the circuit when it is no longer needed. If you have a 4 ton unit, I would have stayed with whatever model of the 521 kit, it says you need.Seems the latest kits show one kit up to 3 tons (1-3)...and the next kit starting at 3.5 tons (3.5-5)....so there is no borderline overlap either that you seem to have encountered at 4T.

@@TheWilferch - of course what they have listed is not a 521 kit. They want you to go buy their ‘kit’ not buy a 521 kit. They are the same thing. I have a 60 µF run capacitor so either 521 kit will have a LARGER capacitor than that as you state - the smaller one is 108 microfarads and the larger one is 220 microfarads or something like that. The capacitor for my compressor ‘start kit’ is 108 µF which matches the smaller 1/2/3 ton 521 kit. Both kits will work but the smaller one is better matched apparently to what my compressor needs and is clearly listed in the parts available for it.

FYI If you want your relay for compressor to last a long time, buy one rated for higher amp and also in my case I had a single pole relay 30 amp, so I bought a 40 amp and a double pole, connecting both poles together so it's now a 80 amp relay, good to outlast unit. Relay failure can damage compressor. A start relay is completely different part/function.

Consider adding an Emerson SureSwitch. It is an electronic contactor that closes on the zero crossing of the AC signal which helps eliminate arcing. It is protected from ants and insects, and has brown out protection.

Fyi You had stated that it didn't make a difference which way the hard start capacitor was seated, only the relay. I noticed in the instructions that the hard start capacitor should be placed in the upright position even though it can slip down if not tight. I was told there is some gel in there so it is best seated in the upright position. Anyone else can chime in to clarify!

I just installed a 5-2-1 hard start kit following your video today! Thanks so much! I have a question for you. Would the AC still running fine if the kit is actually not working? I am asking because I have another AC which has the kit installed already. I suspect the kit is not working because when AC starts the lights blink.

I learned a lot from your educational videos. Keep doing a great job to help others. Question for you - how would you wire a 5-2-1 to an AMRAD Dual Run Capacitor 70 + 5 uf MFD 370/440 Volt? Thanks in advance.

@Springerpop

Yellow wire goes to the AMRAD capacitor's "CPT" (Compressor Protection Terminal) connector tab. The reason that AMRAD developed this separate tab is to protect the compressor in case the hard-start relay doesn't "kick out" (disconnect). There's an internal fuse between the CPT and HERM. I used that AMRAD 70/5 on my three-year-old Carrier as good insurance, as they are made in the USA (Florida), and are known to be top-tier reliable. I saved the old, OEM cap just in case I ever need it, but doubt I ever will.

Excellent video. Would you recommend a hard start kit over a soft start kit? Is there a concern the hard start kit is too hard on the compressor over time?

Blessings 🙌 ❤

From a contractor: To have a hard start kit installed on your compressor, you can expect to pay anywhere from $300 to $350. Our prices always include the cost of labor and parts. The overall price of a hard start kit is cheaper than paying for a compressor replacement which can be $2,500 or even more. That's a $20 part, 10 minutes work.

Great video. The AC company just quoted me $449 to put one in. After yelling at the company (not the tech) for 5 min, I told him that I'll look around. Checked online, and the 3 wire hard start kit was $23.99, and I could not believe why they would quote a price like that. Then thought I'd check YT and came across this great video. So as a non-AC person with no background, it seems like simple DIY. Any words of advice before I venture into this?

Some heat pumps have a terminal on the circuit board specifically for the black wire. If you have a heat pump, look at the schematic on the cover. It will usually show the hard start wiring with dotted lines. Follow that schematic or the unit may not start.

Thanks for the video - how do you tell is the hard start kit or capacitor goes bad and needs to be replaced?
