30 years out of an AC unit is more than respectable, its almost impossible with anything made today.

Valiant soldier spent 30 years on the front lines and finally died on the job.

Yes it certainly has been “warm” at some point. It’s cooked some of the deadner right off that blanket. That old girl doesn’t owe that household anything. Good luck on the replacement Theodore . 👍👍🇨🇦

My Old YORK condenser AC unit still running after 37 years.... but we have to Upgraded. It was paired with Trane gas furnace and it has been Out/Down for 14 years Already

that seemed like a rather relaxed "buzzing" for a locked compressor, almost like upstream wiring/power supply has been fiddled with, unit only getting 120volts. fan seemed a bit slow, but hard to judge that in video and the other construction noise covered up much of the unit's sound. lol, either way, she's been well cooked and past it's prime.

before their current conglomerate bought them out, they made a fine product.

My Payne heat pump is going on 26 years! Only issues have been a minor leak that required a charge and a capacitor failure. Still going...

3:04 I imagine you already dont do this regularly, but I've almost gotten bit by a black widow blindly reaching my hand under one of those panels before!

They rarely bite, unless you try to handle them directly. The venom doesn't bother most people. But, you know doesn't hurt to look first. Could be a snake up in there too I guess.

They would be going from R22 to R410a I presume. That would be likely a better idea in keeping the power bill down...they could select a 16 ish SEER and maybe save a few bucks in summer weather to be comfortable.

I'd hope who ever installed the air handler checked the compatibility if it's a TXV. I've come across so many jobs where they only replaced the air handler and the TXV wasn't compatible with the refrigerant. Home owner should have just opted to move forward with a whole setup in my opinion. I would say rather than retrofitting and swapping out the compressor, it's time for a new unit. I just see a band aid unit wanting to happen if that were the case.

Just wondering why you didnt remove the side panel to gain access to the compressor instead of removing the fan motor

Well, they spent a heap of money on the roof, so the outdoor unit shouldn't sting so bad.

Why would you cover the compressor in a blanket? at 13:00

The blanket is a compressor noise reduction device.
