- In this video we run across a system that is frozen solid. Trying to throw it quickly, we run the furnace in the middle of summer. There’s also some more problems along the way. Please like and subscribe

God bless you brother mine happened two days ago and this info helped me save lots of money you truly are a blessing thanks so much. liked and subbed.
Thank you Sir you saved me a lot of money may God gift you the mega millions
thank you very much brother. i followed you video i fix mine. the guy asked me $900,00, thank you very much
happend to me, no air coming out the vents, everything worked fine, outdoor condenser was frozen solid like in this video, & turning the heat on for 30 min fixed it.
Looks like half a ton. Thxs for the vids.
Good video, good final numbers on the system.
Thanks, I thought so too!
Good vid. I had the same issue today. Low charge R22 though.
Great video like always keep them coming stay safe out there 👍🏻🛠
What's he using to the the ice
Can you recommend someone in Gwinnett county Georgia?
Filter dirty block air flow.
👍
Its on thebinside
I would have guessed a pound or two low.
Freeze protection? It’s a zoning system it shouldn’t freeze salad only freeze a little and shut down when it needs to
Great video. My suction line is frosting up. Indoor temperature is 75F and outdoor ambient is 70F. It's r410a with low suction pressure. The low side saturation temp is 28F. I am getting low superheat but normal subcooling with fixed orifice. Filter is clean and air flow is good. The coil has no frost but frosting just before service valve at outdoor condenser. All amp draws are good. I tried adding some refrigerant but the low side pressure would not rise. I just can't figure this one out. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Did you find a solution? I seem to have the same kind of problem. Suction line and coil both froze. Since then the compressor shut off. Low pressure at the suction line. Adding refrigerant doesn't raise pressure. But vents blew cold air after adding some refrigerant!
Who would ever think that a unit frozen solid would have a capacitor so weak that it shouldn't even be running in the first place? That compressor was getting a one-two punch. But at least the ice was keeping it cool from the weak capacitor overheating it. 😂👌
It's amazing how much abuse those compressors can actually take.
Thanks!
Is it much safer to use a garden hose and Spray water on it to throw it out ?
Awesome video though, I'm not an AC Tech. But just learning to work ok them for myself
Why did u unplug the yellow wire off the capacitor?
To test capacitor on the herm side
Since the units are open to the weather why can’t you just take a hose and thaw out the ice
Get a H10 pro
I notice every tech has a problem with Goodman. Who is picking Goodman? Techs are. I have an inside unit (I don't remember the name) from 1993. The tech said it was too old to fix and I need a new Goodman. I touch the door and the heater came on. I replace the door switch and it work just fine all winter. Why would I buy a new heater when a $25 part fixed my 29 yod heater?
Safety standards. Functionality. Electric parameters. Warranties. I mean really bud it’s just simple logic lol. Why would you buy a new Chevy when your old Chevy can be fixed for cheaper?
Because it’s a new Chevy, that’s why. They’re all gonna have issues eventually, it’s a machine.
@@DakGeorge I'm still running the old heater. The tech lied about not being able to fine parts. I took a picture of the computer and motor. I found a new computer board on ebay and my local a/c store has a motor. I'm going to try to make it through one more winter before I buy a new Goodman heater.
Txv?
Yes
HVAC Tech Tips sweet , great job!
I'd guess u put almost 3lbs in it, what happens when he calls u back with it iced up again and he's pissed about all the money he spent with no leak found
He said the customer signed up a maintenance service... I guess that means that the customer will pay a monthly fee and that will cover any of the future problems with the unit...
@@Je1gonzalez lmao oh man... hook line and sinker
Doesnt that have a low pressure switch?
Yes. But it wasn’t low enough to make the break at the low pressure switch
What a waste if time. You even said it's not that hot. I would of left and came back the next day
