#Peerless #PureFire #NoHotWater - Jak na to + styl
I'm an industrial mechanic turned auto shop owner. That cocky in the relays is normal. There is a voltage spike when the contacts open and that is small amount compared to larger contactors. In a situation like that you need to get I to the control side of that relay and see if your coil (control) is energized and then take a voltage measurement across the contacts (output side) of relay.. When closeed (on) should be close to 0 volts and if your reading high voltage there is resistance in contacts.
Love to learn from you Mikey Pipes, from Canada :)
Saw your insurance commercial the other day. Looking good 👍
Nice little teaching vid ... Thx for sharing ...
Thank you Mikey
Mike pipes good job
Great video
The really is probably in a lot of load but I love peerless boiler 9 years running and still going
For relays you have to check the pitting on the contact pads, like you do on outdoor condensers.
Bosch - Si. Mikey Pipes - Loco.
#LoveBosch. Keep up the good work and fun videos. =) Don't bang on that one to hard. LOL
Mickey pipes mucho loco 😜
Relays wear out, s*it stains are not good, but relay contacts switching 120 VAC can be pitted up and still work fine the voltage is high enough to burn through any carbon. Now if the relays were switching low voltage it would be no bueno.
Nice video, good learning experience. Wow. Pinhole leaks in the piping and fittings, failing mixing valve, old water damage corrosion on the connectors, bad expansion tank, burnt relays on the control board. this boiler has everything going wrong. If I lived there I would want that control board replaced before it fails in subfreezing weather on a weekend. Is it time to stop pouring money into that system and replace it, maybe with a lot of repiping? I wouldn't replace it without water analysis and recommended treatment added. Mike you are correct that the discolored relays are signs of wear. Who knows if they will last days or years like that.
I had a Bryant 92% furnace. It's control board relay burnt up and the contacts unsoldered from the board because they got so hot. That POS furnace cost me a lot of money over its lifetime, two control boards, an inducer motor, a gas valve under warranty, and maybe a blower motor. I saved pennies on NG and spent dollars on repairs. Never again will I own a BDP product because that furnace was a PITA to do any routine PM at all. Not to mention that BDP wont sell parts to an owner.
Not like my daily dose have been sanity and you're the ringleader LOL good work and keep your boots dry
Those paper gaskets on the Honeywell mix valves always need another bit of torque a year or so after the install or they weep just enough to cause that.
I concur where there's smoke there is fire
It is showing signs of arching
Also the draft motor sounds like she ain't feeling well.
You found the magic smoke in the relay! I would assume the contacts are a bit carbonized as well. I am sure that relay has been on and off many many times. The internals of that boiler almost looks like a Navian! Those cables are in rough shape for sure. I am sure the resistance of those connectors are quite high, just like the relay. Its just a runaway cycle for sure, the worse it gets the higher the current, which then makes it worse and until something craps out (best case) or catches fire (worst case) until its fixed. Lots of holes in the copper and brass fittings, that need to be sorted out. My OCD was going insane in that room. You have to warn people with OCD that they need to look away and don't stare at the plumbing and electrical nightmare! 👍😁🤦♂
You need come Ga. and smoke one with me .......
Hello Mikey !
I would replace the relay box. Remember tech support are Not always Wright. Buenos días.
Sos un buen Plomero
Hi Mike we have a eletric hot water ours was doing the same thing the domestic hot water would only last 10 to 15 minutes then get cold the plumber came over and the whole inside was rusted I guess the anode rod rusted to we have a new one
with the amount of things being replaced and the history of this boiler. I would spend the money for a new system
Hey Mike, off subject a lil bit but I heard today at work that lasts nights navien training course said you can not use PVC for intake or exhaust anymore on there units
WHJ !
Thanks again for the videos!
🥃🥃🍺🍺🍺⛳🎳
Stay safe.
Retired (werk'n)keyboard super tech. Wear your safety glasses!
@@PipeDoctor 😐🤣🥃⛳
When we installed those Honeywell mixing valves, we put isolation valves to change them. Because they always fail.
With all that pitting on the domestic water side he might have a water quality issue. Bad water kills mixing valves quickly.
@@daversj I installed them in Manhattan bronx queens and long island. Junk mixing valve
👍
What do you prefer working on Forced Air Systems or Hot Water-Steam??
To me it seems like, Hot Water or Steam can be high maintenance.
I would replace it, it's the same thing as contacts on a contactor. If they were pitted an chard like that, I would replace it.
agua caliente
That yellow jumper wire that was on the floor ,why was it there?
Rats nest of wires I'm surprised you could figure that mess out lol.
Did you get him back up and running?
I wouldve changed all sensors and relays associated with said board nothing worse than changing out a board and having a sensor or relay take a crap 2weeks later generating a call back
I thought the hot chicks in your area spoke Yiddish 😂
I would still be suspicious of any relay exhibiting signs of arcing Enough carbon build up and or pitting of the contacts is a recipe for an off hours service call. Sounds like the manufacturer should beef up the current capacity of the relays imho
Use standard off the shelf plug-in relays. Would make servicing so much easier.
I’d take the gut opinion of my plumber over an manufacturer’s rule! The relay will never go until it’s Saturday night at 3am and 3 below! So yea, replace it!
Mi, no nintendo.
Must be a NY thing, nobody wears shoes!
burnt is burnt , but from every thing i was hearing there is a hole bunch of problems.
Replace with Bosch I would if I was that owner.
Just my 2 cents you pay a lot more money for these high efficiency machines up front . Then they are more expensive to repair because parts cost more and the Techs. need more time with them . Are they worth it ? I guess only if the left stays in power and the cost of energy sky rocktes maybe . Then Mikey will be installing wood burning boilers . #FJB !
Mike, proper Spanish would be "agua caliente".
Cheaper to get a Bosch and call it a day
