We have them in our trailer. They are wooden

Now i have to show this to my wife, to save myself from buing and installing one of those😅

You're full of s***you can use a 370 on a 440 ra 440. You can't use a 440 where it requires a 370

Gd damnit bobby😅

a fantastic explanation + visual, thank you.

you are a godsend. Thank you for this video (and the one how it works!)

i noticed these little quirks of flex ducting recently when i reran my basement dryer line.. did it on the cheap cause its electric and its one of the newer driers with many temps and i never use more than med, the run is entirely plastic flex and it flows better than the old foil flex the previous owner had in there. and i suspeect its because its nearly a straight run with only one bend thats not tight at all. the previous one had a huge sag in it where im sure lint was building up and pulling it down further

The relay is mounted upside down, screw goes on top........

Question: I currently have an 8” supply in the center of my kitchen. But I’m wondering if I could T that off into two separate supplies so I can have one on each side of the room instead of one in the middle. It’s a 15’ long room

I have an old Citizen Window AC with a orange yellow blue red black WTF What do I do just to get it going to run the fan thaats on it?? I know this is an older vid and you might not get this.. heres hoping... THX

You had that tarp a foot away. Mine is about 6ft above the unit and my temperature dropped 3 degrees.

Excellent video!!!!

And reduce the head pressure will that make the unit last longer

Thank you for the video. If you are going from a R4184D1027 to R8184G4009, after you finish wiring the parts from this video. IF YOU HAVE AN OIL BURNER, you need to put a small jumper between the two T's.

great examples of hard pipe elbows and straight flex pipe on "flat surfaces". being cheap and fast is what made them "great". just like everything else cheap and fast, the failure rate is giant right from the start. also rodents cannot chew through, nor enter proper hard ducts 🥸

there's a problem with stretching the flex ducts on install, they shrink and break down with age, ripping apart at random places with normal airflow! that may very well have been the case in many cases. more or less, they need a flat trough or "bed" to lay upon, when only supported here and there or by wide strapping failure is inevitable. new ducts in my own home? 99.9% hard piped. sans insulated bathroom exhausts (minimal temperature fluctuations). not afraid to knock tin and did an "ten times" way over my head job, in an tight space commercial building attic, not only that, in below 10F weather, effectively removing the only heat for the large building full of glass front coolers. sweating bullets and knocking tin like mad, re-using existing ducting to re-make transitions for new gas duct heater. sweating bullets x900. got it done after way too many hours. their other options were remove roof or remove ceiling and all multi rows of wine shelves and other products below for a big lift to fit and remove old unit. I had to bang apart 36" square duct and two 16 x 32" to move it away and built an rack/storage sled to hold the old giant unit heater. I should have never taken on the job, but I did and got it done in about 12 hours straight.

those bad installed flex ducts, remind me of being a kid, where we smashed in a random 150K furnace into a tiny house(bad #1), then where the ducts didn't line up and had to clear main beam, four elbows in roughly 90 angles to go down around and back up... yeah, that's what happens when you have your son and his friend(me) install things at age 14..... 🤣 we actually repaired multiple 2 line deep well pumps (in well ejectors) back then also. but those were pretty easy, check depth to make sure footer valve wasn't in muck and repair the leaking poly pipes, pumps or various parts. those were easy at that age. man are still working to this day(30+ years ago now), some had issues, from brass corrosion (pinholes in ejector or footer valve).

good old ribbed noodle ducts, restriction 1 of 1

I think I'd pick one of these over something that requires a capacitor. I'm new to electricity and motors but it seems like something with a capacitor would just be more costly. That second motor gets the job done just by making a gap in the metal...if it's stupid but it works, it isn't stupid. And like you said, they don't use much power anyways.

Evaporative cooling makes a comeback!!!

I pulled off an old motor today that had no common wire. There is a yellow wire that was connected to the compressor. Super old unit in Maui and now I’m trying to figure out what wire is the common wire to connect the new motor.

Thank you very much. When I watched your video, I solved my problem differently

I’ve seen some use magnets to mount the soft start. What’s your thoughts on doing so?

thanks for the video. I'm just starting to design a system so I'm still learning. is there a way to connect a generator AND microinverter-based PV? (i'm thinking of the rare case 🤞🏾where the grid is out, it's overcast so there's low solar production, the batteries are going flat, and my wife is panicing about the stuff in the fridge going to waste. ☺️) is it as straightforward as adding a switch that selects which ac input (PV or generator) is connected to the sol ark's generator input? thanks.

❤😊

Has anyone asked about the run time on the AC? My AC has ben running all day. I went and threw water on it and then 9 minutes later it stopped running.

*watch this at 1.5X minimum to save your sanity*

I had a QUEEN STOVE SUPERFLAME with a dual chamber

I've worked on many of these....some houses were still heating with these just 30 yrs ago

I see it has buttons on the remote for how many hours you want it to run (presuming it starts a timer at dusk). There is no programmable timer such as 8:30 to 11:30, just 3 hours past dusk? Looks like a decent amount of light output, though.

👍🇺🇸👏

I remember the day when I came to your channel looking for help with my furnace, thanks again!

Your videos are great!!! Keep up good work.

Once again you've advised your viewers improperly starting with suggesting the meter be closed down for the simple issue w/the old style valve handle not turning easily. Loosten the nut at the bottom a bit turn the valve off then re-tighten period. The idea of replacing those wonderful old valves with the newer is a waste of money and then you really are shutting down service and relighting pilots. Do you work for those guys? Be honest. You certainly aren't misguiding

Thank you

Well when you rip em apart like that you kinda always usually have to replace the parts you broke.

Great video!

Great video. Thanks. It would be awesome if you would make a video on insulating the outdoor suction line to condenser vs no insulation so as to compare to torn deteriorated old insulation. To see if it’s worth the cost to re insulate the lines after they old wears off. Also would be cool if you added insulation inside condenser to pump and maybe even pump? Wondering cost savings . Bad hood for system. Thanks for all the great videos

Another superb run-through for how to adjust charge in an R410A split system with a TXV. I’m finalizing the charge in a similar system right now. It has a brand new condensing unit, but I am still using the existing evaporator and line set. So I knew additional R410A would need to be added to the pre-charged amount which was already in the new condensing unit. It required about 3 LB to be added. I think I’m getting close to the right amount now, but will make one more test of subcooling, indoor supply vs. return air temperature split, and superheat exactly like what is shown here in this video.

What do u think about adjust belt tension to spec in the install manual, for example 100 lbs for a new belt 80 for a worn in belt. Do u thinks that's to tight

Does NOT reduce the amp draw by the compressor, simply supplies part of it from the capacitor. Total amps are the same so the compressor sees nothing different.

Hello Grayfurnaceman! Long time I haven't heard of you.

Mister you ought to get into politics-that was the worst, long-winded, most convoluted explanation of the operation of a regulator ever!

Some AC dude says that will mess up your AC unit😮😮😮😮

perfect ... that is exactly the video i need... no one else explains it.... Thank you

Ain’t got no gas in it

Horrible video

My ac has a 150 contactor LRA rating. I can't find one lower than 180 LRA. Can I use a higher rated one?

I am trying to find out if there is a way to adjust the temperature readout because mine is always reading high compared to several other thermometers I compared it to.

Interesting how with natural gas a bright yellow flame is cooler than a nice blue flame without yellow tips, seems like just the opposite with wood GFM? With wood the brighter the flame is, the hotter it is in my experience. Any thoughts are welcome.
