Use polypropylene pipe, not pvc, this will keep chlorides off the heat exchanger. Of course, a two pipe system would encounter less back draft of corrosive chemicals.
Thank you
that gage is not for R134a, so video is useless
Thanks
Where is the PDF?
Holy lol. Thanks😂
What is amazing is how long electricity had been around when K&T wiring was implemented and they still had no idea what a ground was. I wonder what the life expectancy of an electrician was back then?
Thanx
I’m an apprentice and used a pipe wrench today on a nut fitting and was very quickly told that you never do that. Use an adjustable wrench otherwise it strips the fitting. A pipe wrench is for PIPE, that’s the way they are designed.
Excellent video!!
good job thanks
Really clear and helpful. Thank you!
The leakage could be from a device that's 220V and not wired correctly inside itself and causing leakage.
ngl i would do a reverb IR tbh no cap
i believe mini split is only for those people who lives in a hot/tropical place. Mini split needs to have a maintenance twice a year and costs you depends in where you live. In my country mini split costs around 400-500USD and installation is around 100-120USD which does not sound much but it is in my country. Typically you can get a good 20 years if properly maintained.
If it’s your own vehicle fine. If you own a shop like me I don’t think customer would be happy if I started sawing through the dash 😂😂😂
“Hey, Hon…while you’re out here…” There’s no way I’d lift that thing by myself while another perfectly-capable adult was standing there. My wife is probably stronger than I am, anyway.
You showed the connections and where the each hose/connector go, but did you opened both valves or just the low side??
Great review! Glad I watched.
Nice job. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
thanks billy
Very interesting and useful. Thank you.
So by tightening the bonding screw it essentially bonds the ground bar to the neutral bar? Or does it just bond the ground to the panel?
BEING A WELDER AND MECHANIC JUST GETTING INTO A/C AT AGE 67 ITS IS SO REFRESHING TO SEE YOUNGSTERS WORKING IN THE TRADES THE LINE TAP DEVICE IS WHAT I BEEN LOOKING FOR
If the pipes were insulated this is unlikely to happen,,
Thanks
Thanks!
sweet content very educational thanks for protecting our atmosphere!!
The use the right tool people, it looks like some of these worked though...and pretty well... Just saying... I will say some older Channel Locks were designed for round things though before this newer 90 degree head style. Buying two of either kind in Channel Lock, is still going to be cheaper than two Cobras or Alligators by Knipex but that said, Knipex is great but expensive. There are limits to what one wants to buy and carry... Until I got a couple of aluminum pipe wrenches I carried them much less and even then pliers have some appeal. Some of the use the right tool people come off as if we have never heard of pipe wrenches and or own none... Just saying...
Absolutely worked for me,,thanks 👍
Dude! You saved me from installing a new one using only like, 4 minutes of my life. You are the BEST!! 🤩🤩🙏🙏
I’ve decided to mount mine on a wall-bracket that is mounted to a post-stand. I am augering two 36” deep holes similar to fence post. My post are 6”x6”x6’. I’m routing two dado for 2x6 cross members. One for the wall mount top rail and one for the lower stand-offs. I have faux brick that comes up 3ft and I do not want to mount to it or through it.
The electrician on that job should be kicked off the job for leaving the place such a mess. No reason they couldn’t spend 15 minutes at the end of the day cleaning up! Always leaving a mess for everyone else to work around and ultimately clean up.
Can the fuse blow if your batteries at the thermostat go bad?
Will you use 15 amp switches?
Damn location versus wet location R2 different categories you must use a wet location not damp rated
Your video was SUPER HELPFUL. I am replacing my single pole contactor (30 amp). In your video you didn’t talk about the LRA numbers on the contactor. My old one shows 150 my new one shows 180. Can I still use the new one?
Bro best video ever! Gob bless you, good Sir!
Brilliant explanation, thank you! God bless you
You may have a condition called OCD.. You went around that pipe way way too many times....
Slow guy in class here... i have a floating neutral generator.. do i need to geound it to a fence pole or something?
Amazing fix Benjamin, we did this today to our 2103 convertible.. which was clogged like yours. Heavy duty power washer like you have cleaned/ flushed it out and it’s draining fully now 👍 Thanks so much for your excellent advice and tip! Jim in NJ
I work on MVAC, fan speed always on max and put recirculate on...ALWAYS. The same with a house do you open a window when you're charging a house? JS lmbo. Now as far as dye, it works well and I find it better than a sniffer just my opinion and if your look for a leak with dye if you don't want it in there flush it out, I mean once you find the leak you have to take the freon out anyways to fix it. I honestly think you did well even with a scale. I don't use scales I use a temp gauge and if it's a healthy system I can get normally 39 to 42 degrees coming out the vent. as of 2024 this will be the last year you can buy it everything goes to 1234yf. Be good bro
R134 not available after 2024?
@@garrettstevensen2467 nope, all gone
@@garrettstevensen2467 Remember how they did R12? doing it the same way.
Thank you so much I'm on the road and this happened, your fix worked :)
Do it with only the f3800
You did a great service with this video. This small fix improved the quality of this old man’s life. Thanks.
I thought R22 tank was right side up,not upside down?
Shit video.
Please tell me what this color is and how I can find it
Great video!
