- Full day of no cool calls, as well as some repairs (that didn’t get completed)
Call 1: estimate for system repairs vs replacement. Broke down the options for the customer and they approved the repairs of cleaning blower and coil going forward.
Call 2 : anticipated replacing TXV but upon thinking about the diagnosis on the drive over, thought it was best to look deeper into the problem and the route cause! Did not replace TXV but did inform customer to call if issue irises! It’s been 5 days no repeat issues 👍🏻
Call 3: system was not cooling, immediately found coil was frozen 🤦🏼♂️ was unable to locate where the leak may have been! System was only 6 years old but out of warranty tue to not being original owners. Customer opted to gas and go at this time.
Call 4: customer had did RTU fielder causing the coil to freeze partially and not cool! All good after departure.
Call 5: 🫡 one of our nations veterans, has had issues in past with the thermostat and opted to not replace previously! Decided to on this one.
Call 6: customer’s expectations were way to high on the 4th of July. While doing laundry using the dryer and cooking using the oven inside, was unable to get temp below 77 prior to bed. With the extreme conditions of the day and the circumstances of the house direction age of system and lack of insulation, system performed at its best!
STAY TUBED FOR MORE ON LAST CALL AND WHY THE CUSTOMER WAS WRONG

Awesome work Mr. Krauss, keep the videos coming bro.

I’m averaging 7-9 calls a day ! Maybe 1-3 systems a day . Only because I fix everything I can . Working at a over 400 tech company and suggest all your videos to our younger guys . I say younger and in 40 but you know what I mean .
Putting it that work my guy!! I like the 6 call range for the busier days, to at least give me time for each call! Dude that’s awesome I appreciate it man, let’s go 🔥 🙏🏻 🫡
Hell yeah brother if you see the extended ford new transit van #1425 with tinted windows holler at me ! Be cool to meet you in person and buy you lunch !

Thank you! Informative to go through your diagnosis routine!
Absolutely 👍🏻 appreciate that!!
Hey bro good stuff!!! Where are you located in FL?
Appreciate that bro 🙏🏻 I’m in central florida, orlando area 🫡
Those T6 thermostats like to power reversing valve in heat mode they were up to version 6 we dumped the t6 4 years ago what version are they up to now great video 👍👍👍👍
Tbh bro no clue which version! That’s Interesting tho, have t had tooooo much of an issue with these guys since been installing board 2 years or so 🤔 now I’m curious 😂
T6's and T4's sucks....Honeywell should just cut their losses with those things and focus on their other designs and quality control.
I'm a fan of the 'old' 5000 they brought back and the 8000's for WiFi/Programmable.
Question about the flooded drain pipe. If the txv closed because it read too cold, wouldn't that restrict the liquid and make the superheat go way up and therefore no liquid to the compressor?
Nah your right! on the function of it!! I think it was just opening and closing so much, and I recall a previous visit where there was no superheat registered and made me think of txv
“BANGER”
Let’s go big ERN 🫡 😀
Did you clean that blower on that first call. That will effect air flow as well
I’ll be going back this week! Sent estimate for it!!
Hey that call where you topped off the unit when you pulled the disconnect that flutter of the compressor what is that? Mine has done that since day 1 when unit was installed but i notice other units dont sound like that....?
What type of system do you have?! Honestly with the ruuds I’ve been experiencing that on shut downs, sounds like the scroll shutting down
@KoolinwithKrauss yeah it's an amana with a scroll last years model 3.5 ton 14 seer
Gee..mabee if the hansterwheel wasn't full of dust and dirt..you might get a bit better air flow..but that coil looked like oil..so I may well be leaking..that's gonna be expensive
All about airflow!! Major issues for sure
And that's why I've installed lp switches with a time delay
I like it!! Might have to start with all the problem 🤦🏼♂️
Another great video
Thanks big Tony 💪🏻 🫡
Anybody ever run into the homeless huffing the Freon. We couldn’t figure out where the gas was going came back one day guy was passed out tucked in behind the condenser.
Nahhhh??? 🤣 never had that experience, I’ll have to try it 🤦🏼♂️ 🤣 😂
not a very common thing, they usually don't live very long
Hint hint that last service call the carrier air handler system that was keeping up and cooling . My companies sticker was on it ! Shhhhhh lmao
Y’all just running wild out here bro!! How do you like working for them? And how long you been there?! Ya thing was running like a champ the lady was just 🤦🏼♂️ 😩
I’ve been with them for 7 months now . Moved down here from gulf shores Alabama and went to work for them . I’m a team lead sen tech so mostly I run no cools or requested calls . The new owners are great they’ve changed a lot for the better just working long hours and busy . Overall it’s been great but this heat is horrible .
I missed the bad review. Which one was it?
For the last call. I’ll address it in another video, the one I told the customer her expectations were to high
@@KoolinwithKrauss next time get all your air probes out and run measurequick and just show her here are the performance reports and if it’s spot on for the capacity of the unit it all looks good. If we are dealing with a intermittent issue just let me know and we won’t charge another diagnosis if it stops working again. Pretty much everyone is ok with it
That cap is going to short out on the 24 v contactor.
Definitely has the potential doesn’t it?!
@@KoolinwithKraussI run into that a lot. The zip tie may be enough but I usually wrap the thing in a little black tape or cut a strap and mount it higher. Those carriers can use huge caps. I think some are like 80/5.
@@Dogdickdale they do pack the big caps in the carriers for sure! A metal strap would’ve been a better option
