you can also take the pressure after the coil to see the restriction on the evap coil only, maybe its plugged, gl fixing that on that unit. or maybe their supply registers are all closed. Usually static pressure comes mostly from the negative side. i bet their evap coil is matted up.

@jessewolfe4136 Жыл бұрын

So this procedure also helps me but It’s not just kinked duct work, it’s usually undersized duct work (return). Too fast or too slow of blower speed, and or air restriction on evap coil . Because the systems they’re putting out now not only blows more torque(ecm), but they also need more cfm on return.

When I check the TES Pressure and I have 0,8 or more...Which is the blower velocity (Low, Medium, or High) that should I set when I do the testing?

@kennethdean4349 3 жыл бұрын

The blower setting should be the one that produces the air flow needed by the system. Compare the TESP to the blower chart and adjust as necessary. A typical cooling system needs between 350 and 400 CFM per ton.

@willskora2055 2 жыл бұрын

If we want low or no restrictions for the system to work properly why do we give the home owner the ability to create an inefficient system the minute they close a heat/cooling vent?

Interesting to see all the data on the app. I am guessing there are psychrometers installed as well? I didn't see them in the video.

For that test you don't need the psychrometers, but we do have them in Job Link Probe form. They come in a kit or as individuals. www.fieldpiece.com/products/detail/jl3kh6-job-link-probes-charging-and-air-kit/job-link-probes/

@zeinktm8317 2 жыл бұрын

It's a old comment but I'll still answer it, they don't the only thing this great tool do measure gas pressure/ static/ and pressure switchs however note that for the pressure switchs they can't pressurize a pressure switch, for doing so you need a different type a manometer to do so.

How do you justify this as a dual port kit? Each probe is a SINGLE port, unlike the Testo version. So, because there are 2 single port manometer probes it is considered a dual port kit?

@@FieldpieceProducts Or you could have ACTUAL dual port manometers by Testo that do the same thing. Your set up is 2 single port manometers. Your very own website description of 1 of these makes that point.

Just found this one. What do you mean "we don't have those installed like that in FL"? I have four clients on PCB where the air handler is under the house. Three of those are installed with the panels facing away from the scuttle hole and no room to crawl over. I have crawl to the lowest spot and squirm over old flex to leak check coil or troubleshooting heat or blower issues while laying in the dirt. Gotta get a skinny youngster on the payroll for those, or pass on the customer to someone else

Couldn't your "high" positive pressure be caused by a dirty heat exchanger? Second question, Isn't the positive pressure measurement supposed to be taken 12 inches away from blower?

If there was a duct leaking in a tight/enclosed crawlspace, a supply air leak or a return air leak into the duct...the zeroing would be a worthless measurement. Your entire reading would be bogus.
