    Nice job. Very thourough. It's great that Peter has a great mentor to learn from. I've worked with some guys that claimed to be super techs and are 99% hacks. I even worked with one at a resort that diagnosed a bad compressor and our company just had him replace the condensor. After he left a few days later I was looking at the compressor because I was scrapping the unit. Checked the capacitor and found it bad. Saved the unit since it was in good shape and installed it in place of one with a bad condenser coil and it worked perfectly. Two years later when I left, still going strong. The only thing I did was service it every six months since it was Florida and got used a lot.

    A guy that was working at the same site as my crew contracted some kind of disease from the bird poop on the condenser, he died 6 months later. Needless to say that I'm very careful working around that stuff. Take all the precautions you can like mask, elbow length gloves and face shield.

    Mikey, wait till you see what is waiting for you in Florida. Been a contractor in Broward County for 35 years and without exaggeration on a scale of 1 to 10 that unit would be about a 4. You do a lot more evaporator coil cleanings here than you do, condenser coil cleanings. And as a sidenote, there is going to be a boatload of money to be made here replacing ductwork. A lot of these communities are about 30 to 35 years old now and are on their third air conditioner with the original flexiduct. You will get calls every day with the complaint “ it’s a fairly new unit and runs all day and doesn’t get below 79°”.
