What really sucks is when the air handler is horizontal and that dang plastic pan sits directly beneath that equalizer tube. I won’t braze them in there. I cut the old one close it with silphos, and move equalizer tube to new location…usually outside the air handler.
Would you recommend change the txv if i get a bad compresor?or only when the txv its bad. Thanks for your answer i follow your twp channels this one and vato de climatizacion,sigue con tu español carnal
They got me doing a txv tomorrow. I never done one before. Hopefully it goes well
same as you had before just different temp conditions,but a hell of a job replacing that exp without taking the coil out.nice video.
What do mean taking the coil out. You do not take a coil out for that repair.
Isn't the indoor tvx only used during AC mode ?
Tough braise. Well done. Thxs for the vids!
Thanks.

What piston are you blowing out?
Looks like the insulation was on fire what happen to your heat shield cloth
Not so bad in the upflow position
What size torch tip are you using and is that the industry recommended?
I don’t remember. I’ve bought multiple different sizes.
What are the symptoms of a restricted TXV?
Low pressure on suction line with high superheat
Pumping down
Did you pump it down without gauges?
Yeh, I did.
Sometimes I pump down by ear also....but if Txv is bad you won't be able to pump it down 100 percent. Experience counts
@@renecuevas4128wont pump down with a bad INDOOR txv i assume?
I said the same but I'm like he knows his stuff that's the only way
@@HVACGUYwhat are the steps to pump down? Any advise?
Hvac guy, are you looking for any help?....I have all tools needed...
No, I work by myself. I’ve actually downsized so I can work as a one man shop. I do know another contractor who may be hiring.
@@HVACGUY okay cool thanks anyways....hvac on.....
My unit is 3 years old and Txv is already bad
I have a Carrier Heat pump and my TXV has lasted for almost 12 years with no problem.
Carrier txv are getting bad
Heat pumps are trash
There good in certain areas but not up north were I live to cold but down south there okay cause it usually don't get that cold !
