man u teach me some good stuff! im gettin better by the video! this just helped me figure a problem out. i was thinking why the the equipment come with 7/8 stub and somebody reduced to 3/4 on a 25’ line set so i started looking for legitimate answers. i never under mind the hvac engineers and thats just what this installer did to my customer! i sure its what they had on the truck and knew better. bottom line not dumb just lazy!

Hi there, I’m having a hard time determining if I need to size the lineset based on the condensing unit’s BTU’s or the Zone’s BTU’s. I have a Bosch 27k 3 zone mini split. Each zone is 9000btu respectively. Logic is telling me that I will only need a lineset big enough to cover 9000btu on each head. If I had a single zoned 27k btu head then obviously I would need a larger lineset. Am I incorrect? Thanks

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

you are correct

I'm installing a Gree 4 zone 9,9,12,18 mini split which has 2 branch boxes. The longest run is 40 feet. I'm concerned if I run 2 handlers off of one branch box that I would need to increase the line size to the box. Is it a valid concern or would the system be fine given the short line lengths?

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

Doesn't seem like a very long line set length I would not be concerned

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

Is always consult the installation instructions for the equipment though

@DimitriBianco Жыл бұрын

@@TaddyDigest thanks! I just realized the package comes with larger lines to the boxes so no need for me to worry about determining the line sizes.

very informative info, is it possible to change pipe size to get equal BTUS,example if u have larger BTU airhandler then the condensor , does increasing pipe size or decreasing pipe daimeter give u equal BTU to get proper cooling operation ?

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

I'm not sure if that's possible that's a good question though

@nykid8849 Жыл бұрын

@@TaddyDigest I was at a job a while ago, that the airhandler was larger in BTU then the condensor, so they had to change suction pipe diameter to get same BTUS, it looked under engineered but did work.

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

It is common in the field to find pipe sizes that are too small for the newer equipment

Hi, quick question.. lets say you are replacing outdoor condensor unit, and if the existing vapor and liquid line length is not enough(assume0.. what kind of connector you use .. in plumbing we use 90 degree elbow etc.. i am not sure what will be used in HVAC just to extend the line by a feet or two. apprecaite your response

@TaddyDigest Жыл бұрын

I would use a 90ﾟ elbow a 45ﾟ or a coupling.

@@TaddyDigest thanks does the 45 degree elbow sold in home depot works. Or hvac copper pipe and elbow are different type

I bought a 3 ton condensing unit to replace old 3 ton unit. when I looked at the vaporside port for new one, it came with 7/8. So, the pipe in the house which is 3/4 wouldn't fit. Maybe I need an adapter.

They threatened to take us to court for putting they're logo on our website... now with private label our average service tickets are 20k lieftime unit replacement warranty- 10 year can't write a check gaurantee and filter replacement programs. 😀 everything works for the best. One thing I can agree with about carrier is, they did a nice job "circling the problem" ROFL 😂
