Summer Cooling Maintenance | Getting Ready for the Summer Season - Keeping Your Unit Running Right!

I am doing this one just to get the basic understanding of the maintenance that would/could/should be done on a system. Of course it can be done differently and this is just my way of doing it. I try to walk through the process as if I were at a customers home. Feel free to change it up and make it your own. The whole point is give you an idea of what should be done (at a minimum) and not necessarily the order in which to do it.
Does anyone even look at or read the descriptions anymore?? Let me know in the comments!

Great video like always, I am a big fan of your videos Especially the electrical wiring video this pass weekend out here in Fl it was crazy temp up to the 97f and the fan relay video that you made help me out a lot now I keep a box of 90-340 relays 24v & and 120v coil to get this Old couple 103 years old, got unit up and running and did a full PM , THANK YOU 🙏🏻 FOR Sharing your knowledge and skills of the train appreciate you very much

Thanks. I kinda botched the sound up a little on this last one but i can't quit my day job to start full time editing yet! I love doing the electrical videos because i think it is where a lot of techs have trouble truly understanding. It takes time, studying and or reading after work to develop the skill. Glad to hear you got them up and running and I know they appreciate it!

Do you pull the breaker before tightening the disconnect? Could you accidentally create loop through ground and send 120v through your body?

[@johnjennings487]

Usually (like I imagine most techs do) I just make sure to be careful and tighten it up while the line power is coming into the disconnect. Not a problem unless you get sloppy and start angling the screwdriver towards the side of the enclosure. You probably would not create a loop through you before you tripped the breaker if you accidentally grounded the circuit!
