- Homeowner wanted a cheap job and got exactly what they paid for! #hvac #airconditioning #hvaclife #cooling #airconditioner #hvacservice #hvacrepair #hvactechnician #homeowner #cheap #hacker
It’s funny that you say it’s always people with money that take the shortcuts. As soon as I saw that antique car and all those toys, I thought to myself those are also the people that bitch about the price of a service call. Good video.
They bought the house after the previous homeowner had this done. That homeowner was her husbands parents. Would love to hear the conversation at the dinner table.
The evaporator is still missed matched with the condenser. They probably come out in the winter and remove some of the refrigerant in heating so it doe's not Tripp the high pressure control. And in the summer they put back the refrigerant for cooling. I've seen that done quite a bit in Souther California.
The home owner wanted cheap they got cheap. Home owner is half the problem .Put a 410 A TXV on .
I bet their meter has been spinning off the wall! I'd hate to see the power bill.
She did say the heating bills were higher than the last house. They bought this house after the previous homeowner had the work done. HER INLAWS! LOL
That's what happens when you don't replace the equipment with correct size equipment any replacement equipment to me should exceed what the original equipment did not perform worse.
It'll make a great dehumidifier.
LMAO
This is just pure ridiculousness 🤦🏾♂️ glad you got them going, and i hope whoever put it in either isn't making those mistakes anymore or they found a better career path
i dont trust no tech that wears gloves
I usually walk away from wealthy customers who want to pay cheap wages, it never ends well, want parts at cost, some look up the parts online and call you out on it, how dare you make money on me, and lifetime warranty.
Amazing. That's got to be sheer incompetence; if they did it right, they would have made more money on the correct equipment. Plumber, thinking he can do HVAC too? An electrician should have at least had the wiring right...
Exactly and by the way most hvac guys need to know electrical work and plumbing too. But plumbing for hvac is very diferent from plumbing for a bath tub or toilet hvac equipment has super high pressures.
@@gabrielstern4992HVAC need to know plumbing? What constitutes plumbing in HVAC condensate drain 😂
Can we just admit. All of us at one time have been side job Bob, Chuck in a truck. Whether you admit it or not. You know you have been. Im man enough to admit it lol
Nooooo all of these guys were born with a manifold set in their hands.
Yes sir
If Joe Snow heating and air isn't a name, I'm about to register it! 😅😅😅
wonder if that will still happen with the new A2L refrigerants? what a hack that other company was.
My opinion is that you should not be able to purchase that equipment without a license and anyone selling it to people without a license should be fined. Also must be with the match indoor coil or indoor air handling unit "or no sale".
@@myHVAClifepeople just want to make the sale. Being strict with the regulations limits business and profits. It happens in every industry. (Cough) VW (cough).
i had my 3.5 ton replaced, they put in a 4 ton, might be too big for my 1900 sf under air. seems the ac short cycles all day in the hot summer months. lol
he "re-calibrated our honeywell t6 pro", he put the set point at 74, told my wife that 74 really means 76 !!! ?????
What bunch of jerks. I doubt very much the homeowner came up with the idea to use an existing evaporator coil.
Can't force em to spend their money. I do mis-matched systems all the time when the custy on a budget, warranty work or property mgt. Change piston/txv and it's usually gonna be fine. I always let em know it's not recommended, and they initial the statement on the invoice with a quote for the coil. Follow up with some during the slow season to see if they are ready.
I agree . Alot of people don't realize all evaporator coils have a design psi rating . Like Aspen or ADP have 500. A lot of new techs just look at air handler and say mismatched because there taught that way all new. Well all new is big money
Everyone gets caught up on seer rating yes it may be more surface area on indoor and outdoor w refrigerant tubing. However 6 out of 10 duct systems. Not a low enough static on return side
People get sold
I bet they have a brother in law that thinks he knows HVAC.
