    About the height of the beverage bottle in the background is my guess lol my brother sent me the photos for me to figure it out. This one stumps me. Does not look broken to me. He thought that as well a jig for cutting holes. I doubt that it is.

    A/C Techs - Tell me about your R22 drop in results

    "First -lets be clear - you leaped to conclusions that were completely wrong when I explained what some in the trade do...that was uncalled for. Just go back and look at what I said, in context. 40 years in the trade. I got plenty of experience behind my words, experience in the real world...

    A/C Techs - Tell me about your R22 drop in results

    Solar Power

    Pending on the size of the system it pays to pay someone to clear the snow. but I'm talking large systems Also with the system design snow shed depends on the angle of the solar modules and the clearance beneath for the snow pile. So it is possible there is no need to clear snow more than once...

    A/C Techs - Tell me about your R22 drop in results

    So your saying it would be easy for you to screw the tech/company in the future that needs to recover the refrigerant? All to get the job by making your customer's bill lower? I hope I am reading that wrong and you are just saying it would be nice and easy if there was a refrigerant that can...

    Mitsubishi mini-split problems

    Lol your comment makes sense now. I know how a multi zone system work, but I do not consider em two systems, one system with multiple zones. I read your comment as some sort of system I never seen or heard of where the lines get reversed between modes. So I took your comment dual system as heat...

    Mitsubishi mini-split problems

    Odd, by any chance you have copper pipes any where else in the house and are those corroding as well?

    Mitsubishi mini-split problems

    Few questions: Was there any refrigerant left in the system to find a leak? If not there may be contaminants in the system now after trying to find a leak. Hoping the tech at least threw gauges on before looking for a leak. Did the "tech" recover (if needed) and do a pressure test prior to...

    Are plastic line set covers waterproof?

    Another note on the condensate drain line is be careful not to pinch it around 90° corners. Even then there is a chance it will pinch. I had a one where the customer tried pulling on it to get a little more hose to make it to a plant, pinched at the tee. Got a call the indoor unit was leaking...
