Brian the Electrician is the only character on the show who gets their own intro theme and jingle. Shows how important he really is.
ع.
I Think rilley needs one 😂👍
Well he isn’t getting paid. Editor probably felt bad.
Linus was probably too cheap to pay him well so they threw in his own intro :P
Riley singing the jingle is 100% the best. Need more of it.
These “Brian the Electrician” episodes are like “This Old House” for computer nerds.
Yup, I agree with this comment fully.
And of course it's always fun to watch someone completely own Linus
Loved that show
For some reason, I'm getting "Home Improvement" / "Tim The Toolman Taylor" vibes. Not sure why.
Mostafa El Sakari “This Old House” is still on (different cast from the old Bob Vila days but hey). It’s the OG home improvement show. I often catch it when I’m flipping channels. It’s so chill. I always learn something. There’s no fake drama. It’s very wholesome programming.
Linus: Drops multiple things. Impales himself on roof nails.
Also Linus: "I'll be in charge of the torch!"
in an attic surrounded by dry wood at the proper angles to create a fire with plenty of space for air circulation for that fire, underneath all that plywood and wooden roof shingles ;) yeah, totally a good idea for him to use a 5 inch flame to make a piece of metal red-hot.

As someone currently going to school to be an HVAC/R Technician, I love this. All I’ve ever seen is professionals that make everything seem so simple, it’s nice to see someone else who’s more of an amateur at best.

famous last word of any engineer/techinician/machinist
"DIY" so long as you have an Electrician who also has the requisite tools/knowledge to handle AC refrigerant.
To be fair I think this unit is actually DIYable if you don't end up having to extend the lines.
@@redsquirrelftw It depends on a region. In EU all work with F-gases (Freon-like) has to be done or supervised by someone with proper certificates. So DIY air cooling is forbidden here, unless you have a specialist, which will make it a PHTDIH (pay him to do it himself)

Brian Odinson the Electrician, snapped a tree in half with his bare hands... while Linus slowly bleeds to death because of a random ceiling nail
Those roofing nails are no joke. Been poked by them a few times, but luckily never had enough space in my attic to get much velocity for punctures. They are the reason I'm thinking of putting insulation on the rafters instead of the joists.
Odinson is a perfectly fitting surname for that guy! 😎

This video just showed me that if I ever get a house without ac, I’m definitely paying someone to install it 😂
why it's ez? I get if u make alot of money but if u have to work many hours to get the money for install it's waste. u dont need to pump nitrogen and vacuum just make sure u connected it tight, most AC outdoor units are pre-filled with gas for lines up to atleast 4 meters back and forth. Electrical install for wires are in the manual no problem. Buy one on sale and save big, good luck :)

I agree. if he has the money he should have paid a pro to do it. people pay $20-$40k to renovate their kitchens. $20k isn't that bad to cool your entire house.
Its funny because at first Linus was all excited to do the project. Then after a few days you could hear how irritated he was. Linus, that's how things go man. Makes you appreciate the office jobs all that much more when you are done.
Brian's just out here casually saving Linus 20 grand... legend
Brian should charge his cheap ass 50 grand....
Don't forget providing cringy comedic relief to the video, as Linus makes "funny" comments.
@@OutsideDuhBox You say this but pretty sure Brian does this for a living and the publicity from being on this channel is worth as much if not more than he likely charged for this.
@@Kyrenthar I doubt there is much overlap between people who watch LTT, Live in the area, and need an electrician.
@@Kyrenthar I say that because it sucks that you have to have a certain personality or visual appeal for cameras and hits. Brian would.never make as much on CZcams as Linus without help from Linus. Even then Linus always wins. And if you notice, Brian works HAWD . Linus does WORK WORK WORK don't get me wrong, no sleep, but it's mostly phone calls, camera times, background pc work, not much attic sweating on 90 degree weather days? In any case people like Brian deserve just as much is what I am saying. The working class.
Favourite quote: "Ha, Haha,. Ehh maybe we will see" -Bryan
I heard Bryan is an awesome name
"That's not gonna go anywhere"

That moment when you see the Indoor air conditioners Linus was using prior to this install, and then you remember the "Technology Connections" video about how AWFULLY inefficient those units are compared to standard window units....poor Linus... he never even knew. But glad he's got this dope ass Linus-Style "Central Air System" for AC. Also, at the end of this video: Linus finds out why central air installs are so expensive
Ya say that, but I've seen licensed pros make similar mistakes, sadly.
Love these videos with Brian, I am from Europe and I like to see the differences in how things are done. And Brian is also great at explaining the basics of what he's doing.
As a professional HVAC contractor I now know exactly how Linus felt while watching the verge build a pc.
Yeah...This was arguably the worst install I've ever seen...
Can you point out the mistakes. Would love to learn. Thanks!!!
thaitichi
1. You should flow nitrogen inside the piping while brazing in order to prevent oxidation on the inside of the pipe which can lead to problems later.
2. Could have swaged the copper lines to reduce the number of brazes and in turn make fewer potential leak joints.
3. Pulling vacuum through a manifold is potentially the slowest and least efficient way of pulling a vacuum.
4. I didn’t see a micron gauge being used so I will assume that he didn’t. A quality micron gauge is the only way to ensure that proper evacuation has been achieved.
5. Maybe it’s not available in his area; however, they sell preinsulated linesets rather than running copper and insulating it.
6. The flare fittings on the cassettes are technically supposed to be torqued to a specific torque spec. They sell torque wrenches specifically made for this.
7. An ac tech would have opened the service valves prior to turning the system on.
8. Those units are meant to be suspended by threaded rod so that you can adjust the height of the unit if necessary to take up any gaps between the face and the drywall on the ceiling.
All in all the job was done and the units were operational. Not knocking them at all, I just know how a professional would feel if watching an amateur like me trying to build a computer for the first time.
@@camronconlee944All these points make a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Yep and the threaded rod gives it a bit of movement to reduce stress, those solid mounts they made my end up breaking over time
Brian The Electrician is my favorite LTT Cinematic Universe character
LCU - Linus Cinematic Universe
@Zen Re: because that takes effort.
18:25 Linus looks like "I did what you told me daaaad, can I go now?" xD
when the electrician started talking about brazing joints, i was curious what was going on, then i saw that he was extending the lines but then i noticed something very interesting, he brazed those joints without flowing nitrogen through the lineset. That may cause carbon buildup in the lineset and the refrigerant acts like a detergent which washes away the carbon on to the txv causing it to get clogged up which will create issues in the future.
Another guy said the same
@@lewissmith5759 I think all the HVAC pros were cringing at that part
@@miguelh2481 im curious ae you a HVAC professional? If so how would you go about rigging up an english/europian brick concrete house?
@@lewissmith5759 as far as the lineset goes, I would still run it like they did, the only difference is that I would use flare fittings and keep the torched away.

When Linus backed into the roof nails... I felt that. I have done that a couple times working in crawl spaces and attics. His reaction pretty much sums up how it feels haha.
Not to mention that you might want to see if your Tetanus shots are up todate.

Try the channel This Old Tony. Very funny.
He has a pro editing team thats probably why tho
@@nishanperera6874 An editing team can't help socially awkward people not be awkward.
I love this so much - Linus staff never talk back so much.
Love you guys videos and as a professional refrigeration engineer really enjoyed seeing you working with ac (loved the A/C cooled pc video too). You guys did a great job considering you had never done it before. I know guys that do it for a living that wouldve struggled 😅. Just fyi:
the insulated drainage cuffs are for attaching to 22mm poly pipe usually. There’s normally a rubber reducer with the cassettes which are used instead when connecting to flexible tubes and hoses etc.
The the bag of fittings that you found and had no idea what purpose they served were the drainage kit for the condensing unit. If you run the unit in heating mode condensate forms on the condenser coil rather than at the evaporator. Those fittings mean you can run that condensate away if you need to rather than it dripping on the floor.
The cassette template is mainly for showing where the fixing brackets are and the dimensions of the cassette itself. This is so you can get all the fixings etc prepared and correct so the cassette only has to lifted into position once. However Some will state the minimum size of the hole required to accommodate the cassette around the outer edges.
But yeah great job guys!
I'm digging this whole Linus DIY/Home Improvement thing
I would have liked to see some before and after benchmarks with the sun running at full load.

Finally is their house as cold as they say their warehouse is

"Little does he know, I'm not paying him."

5:40 Here we witness Linus perform the rare "inverse drop"
This was an awesome video. We need more Brian the Electrician.
Where I live domestic air conditioning is highly uncommon and tricky to fit in very old buildings. The quote I got was a stunning figure. I resorted to large, high quality portable units with an exhaust in a special fitting on the windows. We just have them in the rooms we spend most time in. They are really effective, within 20 mins of switching on you get chilled deep pile carpet between your toes. Inelegant but effective.
I would like to formally request the extended Brian the electrician intro from last episode in every upload hes in from here on out. Its perfect.
"DIY" **Hires Certified Electrician and HVAC Tech**
the cost saving over hiring a com. to come out and do it is massive. Even after the 2 or 3 grand to pay him, linus is still saving 50% over what the normal cost would be.
@@matthewp7667 but it's not really DIY if you have a pro helping
@@RealKangarooFlu think of it in terms of a whole team of professionals with corporate fees thrown in, vs one professional and one handyman.
@@RealKangarooFlu you can always do it yourself just might go horribly wrong. Or just look up every step on youtube
@@matthewp7667 the labor costs for this job are WAY more than 3 grand. WAY more.
I'm rewatching these just for Brian, I think he's great.
Brian is very honest, skillful professional, if I was living in Canada I would hire him without even asking for a quote.
Linus: *spends 5-7 grand to save money DIYing with an electrician friend*
Brian: *Charges 10 grand bill*
would still be cheaper.
Even 15k-17k, still saving 8k-10k...
He can presumably write it off as a business expense since he's making a video of it, then the video generates revenue.
Well it really depends how many hours it took. I can assume 4 days, 10 hours a day. So 40 hours at about $120 an hour or so, so about 5k
Don't forget about Linus's loss of his own income whilst he was doing this instead of his own job too, well if he were an employee that is
