I swear this guy is just the best I could watch his videos for hours and hours he has so much knowledge to share I wanna try to absorb every bit of it. Thank you so much Jim.
Jim is one of the best InterNACHI home inspectors.
Hey Jim is one of the best home inspectors period. He is literelly the Mario Andretti of inspection.
I laughed so hard when he said the filter dryer is a muffler for the lineset! hhahaha
Yes.
Perfect demonstration of why a home inspection is as valuable as Enron stock...no substance if a inspector doesn’t know the basics of what the equipment is how can they know if it’s working correctly if at all! Just assign it a random name and act as if your an expert in its fictional operation...FAIL!
thats not a muffler its a filter on the outside unit. Great video though
Thank you for the feedback and compliment.
Great training videos but definitely need to fact check themselves on some of the terminology
I thought it was a filter dryer
That's not a muffler, its a "Dryer" it keeps moisture out of the lines
Right. Good catch.
Delta T should be 16-22 degree diff.. not 13-16..
Thanks. Good catch.
Was just about to say the same
Great video. Not a big deal, but the warm air passing over the coils doesn’t absorb the cold, but it’s the opposite. The cold refrigerant in the coils absorbs heat from the air passing over the coils. Thermodynamics.
Thanks for the info! Good point.
Also didn't check system pressures, compressor amps, reversing valve operation/heat strips/furnace heat operation, filters and inspect duct condition/connections. You get what u pay for.
He's a home inspector, not an hvac technician. Home inspectors don't test all the items you've listed and they aren't required to. You are more than free to hire an hvac tech if you want to and don't mind spending the extra money.
You're confusing a home inspection with an HVAC system check by an HVAC technician.
@@vanillarain711 that’s why u don’t trust an inspector and spend the money for a hvac maintenance or anything else
They paid for a visual function/safety inspection of the entire house not a thorough HVAV inspection. He's actually going beyond the SOP on a couple of items so they are getting more than their money's worth.
Can we make opinion regarding Tonnage according to Sq. Ft. Of House??
Yes.
If Outside temperature is above 60, should we check the Hot Mde
Okay.
Dryer filter, 18 to 20ﾟ split, This guy said multiple things incorrectly Not a very good Inspection didn't check the freon level didn't check the Coil if it's Dusy or clogged. Didn't open the panels and check the wire connections didn't check the capacitor Wire breaker terminals. Drain line could be partially Clogged.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
You’re confusing a visual home inspection with an HVAC inspection by a professional HVAC technician.
You should change the muffler fluid! Hahahahja
Right.
I love Jim’s speaking tone. :D. Thanks for this. Good info.
Our pleasure! He's one of the best InterNACHI Home Inspectors.
*filter drier in liquid line, mufflers located in discharge line if there is any
Yep. Thanks for watching.
That's NOT a muffler outside by the condenser it's a liquid line dryer which is designed to absorb non-
condensable's in the refrigerant.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching. I teach free online classes for inspectors at www.nachi.org/webinars. Free, online, and open to everyone.
Buying my first house soon!!!! These are so helpful, thank you
:)
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching.
Should we open and check the coil for Leaking or Resting??
Nah.
Very Helpful Video, Thank You !
Glad it was helpful!
Very concisely laid out so its easy to understand like that he simplified the verbiage so you get the basic understanding of the flow before the deep dive into the internal mechanics just started the course for HVAC on the learning portal and these vids are awesome help for a person like me with little experience but great desire to learn
Nice. You may also enjoy watching th-cam.com/play/PLKPEi6DdHVZyHK4tkfQuDKRPkBE5oWtuA.html
The guy that did yearly service on my AC poked a temperature probe in the ductwork above the air handler to check the temperature difference. Seemed like a good idea - but he never attempted to cover the hole so I just put a little duct tape over it.
Nice.
Every HVAC tech I've every had at my properties does that and I hate it. During my home inspections I cover them with duct tape as a courtesy.
Thats called a filter drier
Yep. Good catch.
Hire an HVQC professional. Not a clown like this guy. Home inspectors are the mall cops of the real estate industry
I disagree, Toros. It's expensive and impractical to hire a professional for each system of a house. It's best to hire a home inspector who can inspect all of the systems of a house in about 3 hours with an inspection report produced. I don't understand the comment about mall cops.
Your misinformed comment shows who the real clown is.
Like a General Physician
A Home inspector give U the best
Visual Opinion. U can fix some issues without calling any Specialist. Like cleaning or Filter etc etc
Alot of us inspectors have an extensive background in electrical, HVAC, and building ....so paying 500 bucks to have a trained set of eyes is logical, and a specialist can be called in if a major issues is found. Not all issues warrant a call to a single profession.
