So, what you are saying is that Linus does the work of three men. Unfortunately those men are Larry, Curley and Moe! 😬😃
Brian the Electrician is my favorite reoccurring character on the show.
Right? Dude's chill af
There aren't really that many recurring characters. Most of them are regulars.
Such a helpful man.
Hey, I usually make that comment!
@@DarkNexarius Yea he's a rare NPC that spawn only in certain conditions...

Still waiting on his origin story movie.

@@weesnaorc1203 install minisplits. Too many things wrong to list here. Check the comments.
Idk man, ivan was kinda a legend
Same!
Brian is what a man sounds like when he is competent, enjoys his life, and has a clean conscience.
in contrast Linus is what a prepubescent girl sounds like while "helping" her Dad* for the first time around the house.
*positive male, role model if applicable.

I was thinking the same thing.
And then there's the *"I = Brian"* and *"WE = Brian"* xD
Brian should use it for his own youtube channel! ☺️☺️
LOL I was Thinking "Is that Riley?"
@@fancyman7902 hahaha could be right?! He should do more theme songs!
Linus didn’t want to pay an electrician for his air conditioning so he decided to pay an electrician for his air conditioning.
I don’t get it help
Timestatic he didn’t want to pay an air conditioning installer or electrician cus it would cost almost 25 grand so he hired Brian the electrician instead.
@@SamTehSquirrel correction, brian the former electrician that now does hvac.
He saved money at least and, he made a video in the process
@@dippst at least HVAC is more applicable here.
Someone just needs to follow Brian around with a camera crew and we can just watch him do his day to day stuff.
I'd watch a show with him doing refrigeration and electrician stuff.
100 people want a brian the electician channel
Brian is one of my favorite people. He’s a great electrician, a huge old-school PC nerd, really nice and is so good at babysitting Linus
At this point Brian is no longer just the electrician, he’s more like Brian the whatever Linus needs handyman
Brian is just the on-call real man, for when Linus need a real man.
Soon Yvonne will want a third child and Linus will call Brian the electrician :-]
Braze IAR forth? No we are at 3 already I think 2 daughters and 1 son.
He is actually an HVAC technician now. He mentioned it last time he was on the show.
Yeah this is HVAC territory. Brian is a jack of all trades at this point.
Linus needs him so often he should just hire him as a LMG employee
Linus is like the 8 year old holding the screws for his dad
Yeah he has the maturity of an 8 year old.
HAHAHAHA
He sure is clumsy like a 8 y/o
Yeah but look how old he looks ..
like 70 or 75
i was like that when i was little too lol
PLEASE! Do more networking/server/home-makeover projects!
These are always the funniest and interesting projects, while Brian adds his special sauce to the wild ride, which it always is!
Maybe some DIY smart home would be great 😏
Linus: “$20k for an AC unit??? Too much!”
Also Linus: “We put FOUR Quadros in this tower for the low, low price of just $20k!!”
Nvidia provided the Quadros for free.
Priorities man
no clue how powerful the AC was but can easily get a 4HP unit thats good for several rooms for around 2k here with installation :/
2HP (good for 1 big room about 700 dollar with installation)
If you dont want split unit and happy with a window one 200-400 dollar which is good enough for 1 room.
They really rip you white people off :3
@@Nickerian91 Price for AC is related to where you live, when you decide to install it, who is installing it and what you are trying to install it into. The price is NEVER static. If there are lots of people that can install it that drives prices down, if those people are busy (as they are deep into the summer and winter) the prices rise. If your house is particularly old or large that drives the price up and more still if you have a larger house with no existing systems in place. Additionally this is not an AC but rather it is a Heat Pump which is critically not the same thing and costs around 2,000 dollars by itself.
@@SirNarax as far as i know all split type ac units is able to heat aswell.
The price is similar all over the world for the unit if u actually order it yourself and u find it on amazon / respective online platforms in the country.
Installment is not complicated all u need is a tube tool and a vaccum pump. They force you to use installer else they claim you loose your warranty but anyone with basic handyman skills can do it themself.
I remember when Brian was the first time in a LTT video just to do sum electrical work and now hes a reoccurring character in the LTT universe
Inspired by the top comment.
shahbaz ahmad yes
matter of time he gets his own channel.. Brian Electrical Tips
he adds a lot to the lore
I mean, he's even wearing a Floatplane shirt!
Linus: DIY!
Reality: Hire licensed electrician.
*licensed electrician and hvac technician
He could do all of it himself, it'd just make selling the house an absolute pain.
@@ad3z10 What house? This has always been a big bonfire area!
@@jgould30 Here in Norway too, and the same for the heat pump/AC thing. Here it can't legally be sold without including installation.
@@jgould30 Sure you can - If you are the owner, you just need to pull permits install to code and have them inspected. You need to be licensed if you are going to work for others, generally speaking (however some municipalities require you to be licensed, but this is debatable on if it would stand up legally).
I think most of Linus's success is because of his personality. Love the tech tips, but he comes across as such a nice guy, that it is just fun to keep watching him. Big fan.
100% agree especially when TH-cam is full of big egos and entitlement, Linus has proved more than once he is able to apologize if he gets something wrong and is pretty humble. A good sport.
Fans of most entertainers or show hosts like them for their contents. Fans of LTT also like him for the man he is and respect him for what he's built

Agreed!

Thanks for motivating me to watch till the very end. 😂
As an actual hvac tech who has installed those types of mini split before. It was fun to see Linus doing something that I knew more about than he does lol.
As a HVAC installer from Aus this was incredibly painful to watch 😂 I love your commitment to learning though!
The A port to link outdoor units together!?!?!??! 🤯 mayb it's as easy as to accommodate for larger indoor units with 5/8 3/3 😆😆
These Brian the Electrician episodes are like “This old house” for PC enthusiasts and I love them
Alternate title: How I made my home air conditioning a business expense! Pt. 1
Lol
This is a genius comment except for the fact that it legally can’t be marked as a business expense if hes gonna use if after the video lol
@@ethanlenning is that q candian thing or?
nickolai vuicich no someone corrected me the other day, apparently in the US you have to use something for your business over 50% of the time for it to count as a business expense. Ik linus is Canadian but im guessing it works in a similar way there
@@nickolaivuicich4105 No, that's how it is actually suppose to work in the US too. If you expense something for your business it is only to be used for that business in the future. Any item expensed shouldn't be taken home for alternative usage,
Port "A" is larger In case it's a larger btu indoor unit. Usually any unit under 15k will be 3/8- 1/4. Under 24k 1/2-1/4 and 24k 5/8- 3/8
I do these for a living. Brian is dope I like how he installed everything
Brian is one of my favorite 'guest' host. always love it when he shows up.
Yeah
I love how Brian wears actual proper safety boots and gloves (when needed), and Linus just wears his signature sandals all the time...
Linus without safty shoes in projects like this pisses me off...
yet brian also used a recip saw off his own leg
@@xStylxr yup.. also made med cringe 😅
@@incrediblepony Well, he can live his life and you can live yours. His safety isn't your priority so it shouldn't piss you off. Ever heard of 'do as i say and not as i do'? That applies here, he can do what he wants and you can do what you want. Only thing to say is to not follow his lead.
With his LTT underpants.
0:15 "my warehouse staff was extremely disappoint."
At this point, I'm genuinely more knowledgeable about Linus' attic than my own
This is giving off serious whole room water cooling vibes, I can’t wait
I can't believe he didn't run a separate zone for a CPU plate evaporator
He did whole room water cooling before with roof mount radiator
He better include RGB strips in the whole house or I'm unsubscribing!
This takes me back
Bruh, imagine a copper heat sink for your house 🤣
As an HVAC installer it's always interesting to watch these types of video's. I know Brian is venturing into HVAC but just two things from the video.
1: This is something you should really fix! You do not, under any circumstances, want copper and galvanized metals touching. You get electrolysis! (which is rusting copper, and yes copper can rust) And on that note you really shouldn't have any part of your mini-split line set non insulated. This will not only lead to condensation anytime the unit it running (heat or cool mode), but will also negatively effect the efficiency of the unit. They are very sensitive!
2: The different sized ports on the condensing unit are for hooks ups to larger capacity head units (measured in btu)You may want to make sure each port ( A,B,C,D) can supply each head unit; and that there is a total btu the condenser is capable of handling, and attaching more than it's designed capacities (too many or too large of a head unit(s) can lead to many issues.)
And a tip for part two, make sure you do a good pressure test on the system (over 500 psi for at least 30 min) and pull a vacuum below 300 microns before you release your refrigerant! With that many orbital flares ones bound to flare improperly!
As an HVAC tech of 30 years, I didn't like his attempt at brazing at 0:58 - wrong type of gas, wrong type of flame, wrong placement of heat.
At your argument nr. 1 you're actually wrong. Copper cannot rust it can only
oxidize, because rust only forms on iron. ;-) I agree with the rest of your comment.
I not familiar with Canadian building codes. Could you not just run some 200mm hat section up the wall for all pipes and cables?
As a hvac engineer I would have used griplocks up the wall then you don't have to cut the lagging. he is going to have a fountain of condensation that's going to leak everywhere. Plus does anyone else hate the lagging that comes with home installation kits it's a nasty off white it would look so much better in black.
Johannes Hettinga I’ve seen copper come off in brown rusty chunks. No idea what happened to it but it happens.
Can we spend a moment to appreciate Brian the Electrician's beautiful Dad Bod. ;P
I can a appreciate that Brian the Electrician is going to one day be in the hospital for a deep laceration from a jagged blade into his leg.
@Cbt Yo he uses his leg as a table saw.
Thats not going to end well someday.
As an HVAC service tech and installer, you 2 hooking up linesets in the rain hurts me.
Hopefully, there is a good filter dryer on discharge, If so maybe it will only get changed once due to moisture. XD (But yes I noticed this also) , Also Noted that I didn't see a dryer , I know some mini-splits does not come with them.
@@XenoWiz most MFGs say no filter drier on mini splits. There is usually a tiny one somewhere inside but any external one on the major brands is a no go. Hopefully he triple evacuated it.
@@JokerOfTheDeck Good info I didn't know... How do they get away with no drier? Screen in metering cap tube? Even then the screen would only catch mostly metal, not moisture. ( I Don't directly work in HVAC trade but I do work around it.) Thanks for your reply!

*brings an electrician who also does handyman type work
I would hazard a guess that Brian is more Handy man nowadays and less electrician (theres allot more work in being a hadny guy thats also legally allowed to work on Consumer board electrical than just being an electrican working for yourself or others)
@@lewdgamerguy2071 In a previous video he said he does HVAC more so than electrical now.
you need electrician, don't know about euro. but in NA you need to follow strict electrical code to install circuits and big appliances. regular person doesn't know these code/regulations unless they studied them or happen to be a electrician
Yeah you need something Called Part P (its a qualification/British standard) that ensures the person who does the work knows how to and where to fit the consumer/breaker board (altthough that may be an over simplifications) Also in the UK you cant touch the Mains cable running into the Household without your Suppliers permission (it usually runs into a box/device before the breaker, that shows whthere the cable is live and working before it hits your consumer unit and Also as a seperate Mains breaker that just kills the whole houses power (as its there property and its a way to make sure said person working on it is a registered and qualified Sparky)
Im happy hes working on more Industrial Stuff (i liked watching him help linus install the new Blackboxes correctly)
Most electricians also can do the handyman jobs.
Not sure what it is, but I really love these home-improvement videos. Also, Brian the Electrician is an absolute treasure.

I’m a 15 plus year carpenter and I’m thinking of a change in scenery but still be able to make a buck. How long about does it take to start out and actually learn enough to make a little money doing this??
@@stillamitchinmybook6320 It's a plumber's job
@@stillamitchinmybook6320 Where I live ( europe ) you need a few specific certifications to start the installation. Because the fluid used in air conditioning is highly damaging to the atmosphere, so you gotta make sure you don't let any get out of the system. Also, the gas is in fact a fluid changing state, and mixed with compressor oil. On a unit this size, you would probably need an oil collector, specially if you got a section where the gas go right up, like here.. And you gotta make sure the kit include a water filter ( it's here to make sure no trace of water goes into the compressor. ) Also since the fluid is in a liquid state at some point, pipe inclination can play a role.
So there's a few tricks to avoid killing the compressor, and have the unit working as it should.
I'm honestly not sure they're doing it correctly here. They seem to be skipping a lot of considerations. And, just like a computer, when it's installed approximately, it might still work, but also it might damage the hardware over time, not perform as expected, not start at all, or in the case of cooling units release polluting gas in the atmosphere (The last part is why europe require a certification to install such units. Like, fuck up your installation all you want, bu you need to prove that you're able to not pollute doing so. ).
All in one, although most of the ACTUAL day to day work is installing the unit and the pipes/cables, and can be handled by a competent carpenter or plumber, there's also a few specific stuff that should be considered about how and where you install them.
And obviously, you need to be able to handle electricity to hook it up.
I'd say it's nothing someone already working in construction can't learn in a few month with a competent teacher. But it's also not something you should just "improvise" with approximate knowledge.
Nice project! I notice you didn't use cushioned strut clamps for the copper lines, or a layer of pipe wrap. The dissimilar metals will cause the copper to corrode where it contacts the strut clamps. You'll eventually get pinhole leaks and lose all your refrigerant.
I know nothing about home improvement but this was by far one of the most entertaining and educational videos in a long time from LTT.
Brian's mobile workshop is baller af
It's like something from a dream

I love how the editor was telling the audience that Brian was doing all of the work and never put their name at the end Xd.

Not gonna ruin your 100 likes, but i can comment tho :)
I recently installed a mini split and had to run the lines between my first and second floor out to the back of the house. Nightmare project, but effective and efficient device. It was all worth it in the end.
Probably his wifu ;)
yeah his very cool
BRIAN for future reference, where you cut the insulation around the straps. Because you have steel on copper, it'll cause faster erosion because of different metals. That can take years off of the life of your lines (and potentially the whole unit over time). Be careful crossing dissimilar metals!
i like how its edited in that Brian did the work. We've seen Linus attempt his own electrical.... when its done proper, we know Brian did it

You say that as a joke but they literally did do that like 4 or 5 years ago. It was a sub 0 build which was almost exactly that
Brian is my favorite character from the LTT extended universe.
Lmao
The condenser needs to be off the ground on a wall mount or a stand if you're going to use it for heat, you may even blow out the coils in the winter using it like that. Also if you're using that for your main heat source it needs to be rated for low ambient temperatures if you live up north. It's also a good idea to have backup heat in case you can't get parts for that right away
this is very good work, you can tell brian is a pro.
Linus: "What can I do that would be useful?"
Me thinking to myself: "Very little"
My techguy always says: i will be done faster and safer if you don't help with anything but carrying the heavy stuff. :(
There's an old joke that goes something along the lines of I charge $50 per hour. $75 if you wanna watch. $150 if you wanna help.
I would have told him to make me a sandwich.
@@ifsck How much it I want to film it and post in on youtube channel with 11 mln subscribers?
"Asbestos free... Wonderfull I didn't want to pay for asbestos anyway"
I died laughing there 😂😂😤
how did you write this comment?
Isn't asbestos free like RoHS is to Electronics?
@@Shortyyz *insert woosh meme here*
18:15 "Stand where you feel comfortable" *fades backwards into shrub like Homer Simpson* LOL
I just imagine Brian telling Linus: "Let me know what kind of work you're ever going to be doing so I can learn how to do it and you can just pay me to do everything you need."
I’ve been doing hvac for 21 years now. Always like hearing someone say it’s not that easy lol.
I did some electrical work but this looks really hard. Not anyone can claim they know how to do it. Definitely not a diy project.
Definitely not hard
Probably easier after you've done it for 21 years
@@TechnologistAtWork I guess it's DIY in the sense you don't need to pay some big company. You can hire any electrician you want, and get a much cheaper quote that way. Plus, it's probably way more modular than any system you buy from another contractor.
I'm guessing you don't want to watch a video by Aging Wheels, where he installs those DIY AC kits (I think this one is samsung.) on his shop (th-cam.com/video/LKn4F3Wob84/w-d-xo.html). To be fair, I don't think he calls it easy, either.
BTW, are you in the Phoenix area, and do you still take customers?
Linus:"I think I should probably pay you as well"
Brian: *laughs*
thanks for the recap
His laugh reminds me of Dr. Hibbert from the Simpsons 😂

"Asbestos free! Great! I didn't want to pay for asbestos!" Laughed out loud at this one
Man, I just had central air installed in my house last month and went through some of this, in the states, still had similar things happen. Found out the GIANT window unit ran on 240V so got lucky and had a spot in the box to run the outside unit.
So basically I watched a 20 minutes video of two guys installing half of an air conditioning system.
And I enjoyed it
I think we enjoyed Brian the most tbh
Linus really has the whole tax deductions game down. By now half the house can be claimed as a business expense.
I miss Brian. Hope he's well wherever he is
Brian the Electrician's truck of tools is badass, I love it
Whoever edited this: I love you. Seeing the boss brag about stuff he didn't do: PRICELESS :)
