Mannnn!!! Much appreciated 🫡 I just wanted to document a video to a minimum extent, not a full on how to do!! I’d assume if ppl watch the video it would be those that enjoy doing the work and have some what of an understanding of what goes on into an install. Again appreciate you Breeze thanks for watching!!

Absolutely. I loved it!

Appreciate it!! Didn’t get to show the whole process, glad your enjoyed 🫡👍🏻

MUCH appreciated 🙏🏻 🫡 that’s what it’s all about brother!! Same to you 💪🏻

Right on Jeff!! That means a lot brother 🙏🏻 out there crushing it dude for 42 years 🫡

Definitely allows for better flow! I get it, I didn’t flow at condenser but flowed at evap, also flushed, I have another changeout coming up to show a better process ! Thanks for the feedback David 🫡

Hell ya bro let’s Go 💪🏻 🔥 I’ve never seen the sheet metal on the platform before would love to see how it looks and stands up over time?!

Definitely makes for a more “enjoyable” job 😅 😂

Eddyyyy!! Thanks brother 🙏🏻 much appreciated!

Definitely would love to just hump it most days, but I was ready to fight it at that point in the day 😂

Duuuuude??? Right, some folks really got into their feels on this one 🤦‍♂️ thanks man

That’s pretty slick!! I’ll have to remember that!! Only had one crazy time where I needed to sawzall the old one out

Hell ya 💪🏻 🔥 putting it work!!

Much appreciated my dude 🫡 💪

Much appreciated 🙏🏻 definitely was a badass setup 💪🏻

Appreciate it dude 🙏🏻 was digging it at the end!

Appreciate it Mark 🫡

That’s damn awesome man!! Dude is definitely a legend 💪

Thanks Tony 🫡

There you go!! Good luck 💪🏻

Hell ya dude!! That’s when it happens bro!! 🔥

That’s what it is sometimes my dude 💪🏻 🫡

It’s great I usually do!! Maybe one out of every 500 calls I’ll have some one with me, I don’t typically do installs and my van isn’t outfitted to well for it, but I’m definitely going to throw some straps on there, thanks 🫡

🤣 let’s go!!

MUCH appreciated 🙏🏻 🫡

Absolutely 💯 lol I’m the same way dude!! We’re all on the same team 💪🏻 crushing it that’s what it’s about, appreciate you 🫡

Right on!! Appreciate it Curtis 💪🏻 🙏🏻

Appreciate it lance 🙏🏻 💪🏻🤘🏻

Appreciate it 🙏

Those ones there are the testo smart probes, the first gen, since then they have come out with another set!! And I predominantly use the fieldpiece now!! Thanks for watching

I’d rock most of them solo! But would DEFINITELY unload that thing and make it easier 😂 I learned I use to want to be a bill but learned, now if someone’s with me, I’ll hump it with everything!! I’m just not equipped to do installs, if I outfitted my truck to do both would definitely help as well!! You got this ish homie 💪🏻 💪🏻 🔥 🔥

Definitely 👍🏻 appreciate you watching 🫡

Dang man 35 years?! Hats off brother!! But I flushed it, didn’t film, or previous install I show it, in a lot of my previous videos I preach flushing, just didn’t record that amongst others steps!

Woooo that’s tough dude!! We definitely have the fair share of attics but a lot more garages!! And Orlando based. But Ruuds been really good and reliable. They have their flaws but who doesn’t, but our distributor is really good!

Appreciate that Rotty 🫡 🙏🏻

Negative, that shit was buried in the ground and solid poured 5”, definitely not moving it

@@KoolinwithKrauss it will be heavy yah no doubt and a pain but the right ways isn’t the easiest way

@@KoolinwithKrauss I’ve done it many times just roll that mf

@@lostthenfound3160 idk what your deadlift PR is but mine is 500 and that shit wasn’t budging 🤣 last one I did, had another guy with me and it broke the welds on the hand truck, maybe I’m just a b***h 😂a little 2” poured one sure all day but 5” no bueno for me dude!! I’m with you tho this wasn’t the perfect install by any means!! Edit: cubic foot of concrete is 150 lbs, this is half the size and prob about a 4x4, damn near 1200 lbs 😅

@@KoolinwithKrauss your stronger then me bro. Hey if it ain’t coming out then it ain’t coming out then just throwing out my advice didn’t mean to insult you or anything.

Dang really?! Even if it’s poured!?

I can feel that sentiment 😂 love it tho!! And honestly, 50/50 right now, I like the 2 stage on it and all that but for whatever reason the assembly feels very “cheap” not very stable

@@KoolinwithKrauss I agree with ya and it’s funny they want more for a cheaper/not as well built product! Keep on keeping on brother!

Absolutely!!

Definitely agree!! Won’t be many of these going forward! I like the smart a safe route for sure 👍🏻 given the circumstances for the job, it was the way it played out!

Yoooo!! Thanks bro, nah still where I was, bout a year here so far, still only tech tho 💪🏻 how’s it there dude?!

@@KoolinwithKrauss that’s cool man.. at Kalos? Wouldn’t work anywhere else I don’t think. I have and this place is just different. Great people. My next step would be going out on my own but nooot just yet.

🤣 no any more!!!!

All manufacturers have their flaws and it’s a darn shame!! The days of long sustainability are far and few in my opinion. Or at least you’ll have one or 2 “major” repairs in the lifespan

Oh your mileage may vary drastically, depends on if you work for a company, whether you get paid hourly,commission or piece rate etc. If being an owner is your goal it’ll depend on margins and what you pay yourself and reinvest back to the business.

@@KoolinwithKrauss thanks for the reply! I am actually in healthcare management now but the pay is not good and considering to switch to HVAC, its very hard to connect to licensed techs in Toronto and not much info online.. just wanted to understand how much income difference would I be looking at after spending 5 years in apprenticeship; thank you!

Appreciate it!! It’s a hurricane pad for here in Florida (code) ready for the 150 mph winds 😃 😂

YOOO Parker!! Been just busy and “life” 🤣🤦🏼‍♂️

@@KoolinwithKrauss I hear ya. Great video glad you’re still with us. Lol

Used Rx11, didn’t record it, much like a lot of the other processes, I show it in the previous video to this

These dang hurricane rated pads 🤦🏼‍♂️ 😂

When I first started in the field, the head dude at the Ferguson I went to always said inside, to help that txv as much possible

The filter should be installed as close to the evaporated as possible. But since some of them are so hard to get to in closets, crawl spaces or attic. They are allowed to be installed outside next to the condenser.

Nah it’s good I meant because it’s a vacuum!! 😂 so it sucks

Central!

Dude I’m telling you!! I I love to work on em when their right there!! 😂

For sure! It’s a hurricane pad, rated for 150 mph winds, I guess it would be like our “snow legs”

It’s florida 🤦🏼‍♂️ 😂 basically the copper (in most cases) and drain line run under a 4” chase through pvc in the foundation, and it’s brought up out the ground as an access point almost like a trap! Now why it’s done that way 🤷‍♂️ its a pain

Grabbed those at the depot 🤘🏻

Hey Mike 🫡 there’s a few other comments with same question. Basically I didn’t film the entirety of the processes taken to do the install. I did flow nitro, . I also flushed the lineset with Rx-11. My previous install video I show flushing and using nitro, just was getting hot and didn’t have time to film every little thing. But in a bunch of my previous videos I speak to be sure to flush and use nitro 👍🏻

@@KoolinwithKrauss Hello, good morning mike from amsterdam That's great man I love your video i'm also an havc guy from the netherlands

I did! Flushed also!

👍

🤣 love the “critique” dude! Especially since the entire process didn’t get filmed, and phone was overheating. Watch the previous videos I talk about flush, I flush every job. And on this one as well txv-11 at 6:13 you can see lineset was taped off Sure could have sprayed pad but I didn’t 🤷🏼‍♂️ This is Florida, linesets are buried, in the ground, sitting on the ground that’s just how it. Stand offs aren’t “needed” or code Used nitrogen when I brazed inside, didn’t film that either. Stated at the end I didn’t film everything just was getting the job done. Didn’t show me pressure test, evacuation, micron, decay, releasing charge, wiring up the unit, drain line, mastic etc but it got done. But appreciate the feed back 👍🏻

@@KoolinwithKraussseems like some people don’t watch the whole video or pay attention bro! I could understand not being able to film the whole process! Fire content my dude, keep it up 💪🏻🇺🇸🤘🏻💯👏🏻

You watch your mouth 🙀👊🏻🤣

Jam it Shaky your right!! I’m slacking, appreciate the motivation, just got some perks 💊 from the homie, that way when I throw it out, I’ll be good 💪 😂

If you don’t know how to install and need technical info don’t watch for sure, doesn’t say “how to” install 🤦‍♂️ 😳

Gotta do something 🤣 👍🏻

Appreciate it! Wasn’t to bad, if I was more set up for installs I’m I could have been more efficient

🤣 😂 I mean it’s a bit of a hybrid really, not sure what to call it!

🤣 solid bro 👍🏻 as stated, watch the full video, you can clearly see not every step was filmed, would you believe I wired the unit, evactualed, put the tie downs, programmed stat, installed heat strip, released the charge, etc? line set was flushed with rx -11, not full of carbon used nitro brazing the inside! Yup, sure did tape, fab and mastic the the inside when you can reach the back what do you do bub?! Thanks for the feedback 🙏🏻 🤣 🤦🏼‍♂️

I didn’t see him use nitrogen or flush the lineset. If you didn’t film it, it didn’t happen.

Who hasn't ever sealed the back of the plenum from the inside 🤔 you just like breaking balls eh.

What’s wrong with the lineset? It’s free of leaks and properly sized, just re use it. Nothing is wrong with the disconnect, doesn’t really NEED to be replaced. Not every customer wants to spend all the extra money

@@mathewbrown8206 wow! When brazing without nitro,large amounts of carbon will build up internally in the lineset,with the possibility of creating a restriction with in the filter dryer and the capillary lines with in the evaporator and condenser coils. Not flushing the line set, will leave the old burnt oils in the line(acidic contaminates) from compressor burn out , not good for the new compressor. Flushing also prevents the mixing of contamination of different oils and refrigerants that are not compatible. As for the disconnect the whip is U.V dry rotted... the disconnect is most likely ok.. but for a few dollar difference. Change it! Customers expect PROFFESIONALISM, its not about the lowest price its about the biggest bang for the buck. If someone wants the cheapest price " call a plumber" or your nearest hvac hacker
