Heat Pump Package Unit With Restriction Had Other Issues Too

- Long video but I believe good content. First Package Unit was a system I previously diagnosed and then the PM at the end I figured I could record and just speed up, man look at all that gunk come off that condenser coil!!!

I’m loving the channel. Kinda like listening to a detective novel for ac techs. I’m a maintenance tech and currently building my ac repertoire. I listen to you guys while commuting and my morning runs.
Keep up the problem solving with the verbal communication and I’ll keep listening. Excellent work.
Definitely appreciate it man. Check out HVAC School too, I make my guy watch that stuff in between service calls (got my tablet mounted on the dash so he can watch while I'm driving)
Good luck with the channel! 👍 Just finished my first year on the tube.
Man thanks! Definitely trying to stay consistent and deliver good quality videos at the same time
Good video! Just a friendly tech tip, when pressure testing the entire circuit with the compressor introduced then you should test to the low side maximum rating. Your blow molded compressor plug is not designed to handle the high pressure rating and it is not a fun day if you blow the molded compressor terminal out.
I never knew that. Is it just something with that compressor style then?
Bro I really like your ethic , good videos
Man thanks!! I'm not used to seeing myself on camera, trying to get used to it. Never did good giving speeches in school 🤣
The blocking of outdoor condenser airflow method is meant for TXV type metering device
You were freaking out a cat on top of that ductwork at 20:00 now you know why the the ductwork fell off lol
Man that cat was terrifying Jacob up under there 🤣
That little time you spent under that house seems like that really beat you. I'm 73 years old and I've never been like that. Good videos
🤣🤣🤣 nah man just weary of the weird Cat up under there
500 microns is good enough for hvac. That static trick for charge is a bunch of shit. Charge by superheated and subcooling. Heat pumps can b tuff to charge. Ur doing an excellent job. When I was ur age I didn't know half what u do. That's some good ass coil cleaner.
Honestly I love pulling good vacuums. Been trying to save up for another big hose to connect to BOTH valves to pull down faster
They make a wand for your coil gun so you don't have to disassemble the units. It fits right inside the fan shroud fins so you can spray from the inside out. Love your videos.
I've seen a few youtubers use that thing. I think it's definitely useful, I just haven't seen it at my supply houses
Congrats you just earned a new sub!
Thanks for subbing! Really appreciate the support!!!
You have to take good comments with bad 😢
Great videos! Thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Tell your bowy to stay off his KNEES no pun intended.
🤣 I'll let him know
Good videos keep it going bro, curious how long you been on the field and your partner.
I've been doing HVAC completely since 2019. Started service work in 2020. My buddy been doing this since July of last year
New subscriber. Great content!
Thanks for tuning in to the video!!
Damn that subcool mighty high. Honestly I’m still learning but I was taught that it should be around 12 I believe could be wrong 😀
That's true but on heat pumps (to my knowledge) you don't go by subcool specifically. Plus there isn't even a txv on this system which is the only time you go by subcool. Checking LLT on your discharge line in heat mode should be approximately 100° above ambient. But always go by the manufacturer specs if u have a pressure chart. I had nothing
So, did Jacob get attacked by the Racoon in the crawl space? It was staring at you when you were down there.
Naaahhh man he was worried about it though. He said it kept getting closer but everytime he'd shine a light at it, it'd back up
oils been out of capacitor some 20 + years
Iljs u didn't see auntie under there 😅
that power connection needs to be seal tight not bx?
Okay well, i (Grand Aire Solutions) did not install this system. Rental properties want everything done cheap, idk what you expect me to do, it was like that when I got there
New sub here,
Thanks for subbing!!! I hope you enjoy all the videos, don't forget to comment if I've missed something
20:01 eyeballs
Turned out to be a cat. He says racoon in the video I believe but it was indeed a cat.
Bro I always disconnect the Condenser Fan motor and then I charge it.
What? 🤣
@@AB_HVAC instead of covering the top with your tool bags. It’s good for testing the TXV and charging in heating mode.
Ooohh ok
Got to use them american made MARS capacitors bruh
I heard Amrad Caps were pretty cool but the only ones I see at my supply houses are the turbo ones
@@AB_HVAC yes those are good too!
They haven't arrested you yet?
For what?
whats the name of the part you have on nitrogen tank? i want to grab me one
@joshcollins6962 SWIPROY VN-500 Nitrogen Purging Regulator a.co/d/0fFMzKu
This isn't the one I bought but it's the closest thing I could find on Amazon real quick. I love it for brazing purposes and pressure tests. Real simple and easy, just turn the dial to the setting you want.
Please wear safety glasses when cleaning coils
My regular glasses don't count?
Only if regular mittens count as oven mits, or if a regular vest can count as a bulletproof one.
Don't get lazy when it comes to protection, especially with your eyes. Doesn't matter how stupid you look, at least you can still see. Trust.
At least 500 microns.
Yeah and if it doesn't reach that you're supposed to break with nitrogen and rinse and repeat.
@@AB_HVAC yes sir, that sounds right.
Why didn't you change the dryer. It's a common practice.
Wasn't allowed to and it wasn't factored into the job
@@AB_HVAC you should always add that to price. Whenever an open system. New dryer. But it can't really hurt if you leave it.
@osvaldomcs1213 👍🏾
Not necessarily true, I go through jobs all the time without changing the filter dryer and so do many techs that I know and many techs on youtube that I’ve seen do jobs, it’s probably not a bad idea to change the filter dryer when needed but you definitely don’t need to change them after every job specially if your trying to save the customer some money, you shouldn’t give them a quote to change a perfectly good working filter dryer.
@@osvaldomcs1213incorrect that’s just basically adding unnecessary charges for the customer and charging them something they don’t need… SMH 🤦
