I just wanted to show and explain how a residential HVAC system and its low-voltage controls work and show a visual so you can see exactly what’s happening...
Nice work. Most people in hvac school have trouble understanding the wiring side of hvac more than anything myself included. I appreciate these videos!
Really awesome video! Very explained, reminds me back then when my teacher would give all the components and set up everything over and over again. Good times!
Sorry but I've been in the trade for 12 years and this set up never gets across. This was at every school and still in every school. Most people do not understand this set up because they haven't seen it in real world aspect. I wish I can teach a lot of new techs how to check running anps and how to do proper PM'S and learn the sequence of operation so that when they are called on service calls for no heat no cool, they know where to look and what to do after starting the unit and why it happened and if the unit is working properly. This would be good foundation for a tech if taught properly in schools
I'd rather see a furnace or real unit. This OSB rig does nothing for me in the real world. Sorry I must be an idiot cuz I can't learn like this. What the heck does the sequencer do? I need real world application
@fubufb420 I have the same problem, but believe it or not, this is the best way he explained it very well first learn all you wire and electric parts of hvac there's other videos on you tube that goes more in depth once learn what each part is called and does then look up videos of how to trouble shoot hvac electric it took me about 8 different videos just to learn the basic then after you can move to more advance like how to check volts, Amps and other things
Overall this is a BRILLIANT model. Thank you! This is good, VERY good. It would have been better if the Thermostat RWYGC strip was shown and if the Outside Relay 120 VAC white/black wire was shown terminated to the circuit breaker. Same with fan relay. With the black/white going into the hole it just looks like black magic. But sincere thanks!
That was good. Now make one showing the compressor, capacitors, 521 or hard start kit and fan motor of the condenser unit. This is the one most have trouble with it as electricity is not flowing in one and then out to another.
Thanks for your video. I am still searching for an opinion on the cons and advantages of the different air handlers setup in small closet, vertically, of apartment buildings and also, the difference on the position of the blower ... and the inside A or not A coils and all that water runoff that soon will rust the surrounded air handler area and the mold and bad odor will set in..... Many thanks again.
Love your video. Is there anyway you would be able to do a troubleshooting video on the sequence of operation in diagnosing an electrical issue with the same set up you used?
I just want to add that if your inside fan motor isn't running the outside condenser want start up for heat or cooling. A lot of times you can go to the air handler and check the fuse at the transformer. It's an easy fix but only if you know to look for it.
Very nice explanation. Like the real world on the test board demonstration. When you time it out on the sequencer, it appears to be around 20-30 seconds to heater on after fan on and again 20-30 seconds after heater off before the fan shuts off. Think you are in high gear all day so waiting 20-30 seconds seems like a minute or two to you (-: Unless you cut out some video 😁
Thank you for your video. I did not see the Solid State Time Delay for thermostat. Question: You called that "Fan Relay," is it the same as Solid State Time Delay?
@@engineeredcomforthvac4911 Thank you for your video. My ac cooling system keeps running and cannot be turned off, what is the main problem I need to look into? I replaced Time-Delay, Fan-Relay, and contactor (outside)? I would be happy to see that I can turn off at the thermostat.
Just a heads up that blower motor is an inducer fan motor. The inducer is part of a gas furnace only, it's main function is to pull a draft of air and remove left over gases from the previous ignition of the furnace, which in turn pulls negative pressure on a pressure switch which then allows power to run to the gas furnace. The blower motor however is a different part of fhe system that is in a squirrel cage located in the air handler.
Got a furnace with no control/circuit board that blew a transformer (no fuse) replaced transformer and added fuse and blows the fuse instantly when i turn the power on! Any thoughts?
Low voltage shorts are difficult to find even for techs. Look for chafed wires where they touch metal, usually where they go thru openings in metal frame. Could also be a shorted coil on gas control valve, try disconnecting coil wires than replace fuse. You may go thru a lot of fuses before you find it.
What would you suspect the problem would be if you got a blower that works in low speed only UNLESS you reset power to the air handler in which case it comes back on at full force but only for a few minutes when then it slows back down to going slow. So slow that you don't feel any air coming out of the vents....
@@engineeredcomforthvac4911 where do the white wires from the blower and heater connect? I see at they top right corner they go through a hole behind the bored, but that’s all I see? Please help 😀

This is exactly what I needed for a guy learning on the job that did not go to school
You put a lot of thought and work into this video and the layout of all the circuits, and kept the explanation simple and to the point.
Definitely need to make a lot more videos by far the best video I’ve seen on wiring
Best video on the internet on this subject, you are a great teacher, I have subscribed to your channel thanks...
Bro teach us more the way u explain things is so easy to understand.
Thank you for this. I'm just about to start my HVAC courses and this was very helpful!
Wow one of the best explinations I have ever heard👍👍👍
Been doing hvac for a couple years now and this is great
Excellent demonstration. So appreciate the time you took to help other.
Really awesome video! Very explained, reminds me back then when my teacher would give all the components and set up everything over and over again. Good times!
Welcomed
U the best my friend now I know how to connect because almost to burnt the unit
You did an awesome job explaining 👏🏿 👍🏿 great video hope to catch more
Well done!
Such a great video. Deserves way way more love.
Amazing man just super ... understood very easily been needing a video like this great
I wish I can subscribe 100 times to such an invaluable content! God job and thank you so much.🙏

If you’re in the South Georgia area we need an instructor at wiregrass

thank you for being simple and to the point I got it now
A First Class demonstration.
Excellent explanation.
Well done, brother!! Best video out there!!! God bless!
Thankyou my fredean all welcomed thsnkyou
great descripton thank you for uploading, really simple way ffor beginners to understand , thank you
Fantastic lesson
Awesome! Well explained!
Solid video. Thanks for the upload
Great demo 🙏🏼
Very good video thank you.
Practical display.

nice work
thanks for this!
Well done ✅👍
Yeah, that was pretty cool. You broke it down like that. I am a beginner.
Parabéns pelo vídeo 👏👏👏
Great video, I am just missing to know where these various components are located? Are all inside the air handler?
I just want to add that if your inside fan motor isn't running the outside condenser want start up for heat or cooling. A lot of times you can go to the air handler and check the fuse at the transformer. It's an easy fix but only if you know to look for it.

Was a great video but maybe u could of put a hi limit and how it works . u sort of used the sequencer for fan limit
Thank you

Need a setup like this for a 12v propane RV furnace
Thank u
Good
Thanks, my unit is old and looks very close to that. No control board
Troubleshooting HVAC is super easy...i can't believe.. super basic..
Yeah but once you start dealing with chillers and vrf or even DOES or ERU units that is when things get tricky
💯

you’re welcome, them come built in the tstats now days

yes im aware of that it was used for education purposes (acting as a blower motor) to help explain my setup..
Any idea why the white wire at the thermostat would not have power? Transformer is fine. Could it be a bad sequencer?
have a amazing day stay safe and Jesus loves you
Got a furnace with no control/circuit board that blew a transformer (no fuse) replaced transformer and added fuse and blows the fuse instantly when i turn the power on! Any thoughts?
Gas piping probably installed upside down.
Take some pictures before you remove part(s) and wiring.
Low voltage shorts are difficult to find even for techs. Look for chafed wires where they touch metal, usually where they go thru openings in metal frame. Could also be a shorted coil on gas control valve, try disconnecting coil wires than replace fuse. You may go thru a lot of fuses before you find it.
am I missing something all the power but the transformer just make a loop and come back to the same L term on breaker?
yup one side is on every relay (common) and the hot wire is broken up and distributed as needed
Probably is bcs only 110v set up not 240v
Use the meter show us
My blower stays on how can I fit that?
What would you suspect the problem would be if you got a blower that works in low speed only UNLESS you reset power to the air handler in which case it comes back on at full force but only for a few minutes when then it slows back down to going slow.

Hey i would check your return .sounds like flex is coming lose and choking the air flow
I have run into this problem alot.
@@donaldmoore4522 but why when I reset the power it blows at full speed?
Parte de atras
Shouldn’t the heat strip start first
wish you did a cleaner job on the wiring so i can follow it.
ill make another video if you’d like?
@@engineeredcomforthvac4911 where do the white wires from the blower and heater connect? I see at they top right corner they go through a hole behind the bored, but that’s all I see? Please help 😀
