To be honest I never use the timers on the remote. For me I found it costs less to leave it on all the time to the same temp, but that is just my home, yours may be different. The easiest way to set timers is to get the Wi-Fi adapter and do it on your phone.

I am not sure, but i think that is right. You can ask your installation company to verify.

@@TrolleyBrothers - FYI, yes, they confirmed

I do not know what function 7 is or what it is attached to. I am sure some googling can answer that question. I do know that the thermostat manual can tell you how to change those settings, but you need to refer to the indoor unit manual for what each setting is. Hope this helps.

I don't think so. I have seen line set failures below several decks.

Since you won't be using it in summer you can shutnit off or leave it on. It doesn’t matter. Just turn the dial down to off so it doesn't sample the air periodically for no good reason.

$16k

Yes you can do that, this should prevent the control from periodically running the furnace fan to sample the air and see if humidification is required.

Glad it helped!

We use a special pressure washer designed for cleaning head units. I don't now what PSI it is.

No it is not actually. i did a test myself for three months on each mode and Eco mode is more efficient. Sometimes if the water heater decides it will take more power to recover with the heat pump instead of using the elements, then it will just use the elements or mix the use of both at the same time.

Great to hear!

I'm glad you found it helpful, hopefully you are using a Fujitsu Elite installer so you get the 12 year warranty. Please make sure they register your system.

That is hard to say without seeing the setup, was it professionally installed? There are a lot of variables such as the temp the tank is set to and if there is a mixing valve and plenty of other things.

@@TrolleyBrothers thanks for your reply. It was professionally installed. No mixing valve. It’s set to 140. I changed the setting off of heat pump to the option that uses heat pump and electric, it’s a little better, but with 65 gallons, should be able to take at least 2 even 3 showers in a row. Gas > electric so far. I am a developer and this is my first all electric build. Prefer gas so far.

Have you had your installer back out to address the issue? 65 gallons should be plenty of water for normal length showers. Also was the water heater installed to manufacturers specifications? I am referring to space requirements as well. This water heater is most efficient on the "energy saver" mode as compared to straight heat pump mode. Hopefully your situation can be figured out easily.

I never had to hand wind the rope. Even with 350' of line the spool had plenty of room. I was able to buy very high quality rope that is just as strong but thinner to be able to fit more line.

Yes, it is possible to address the remotes. I have never needed to do it for any customer so I do not know how to do it exactly off the top of my head. I have seen it in the manuals though. Just make note of what you set each one to so if a remote fails or gets lost you will know how to set the new remote.

Thanks!

Thanks 👍

Yes, they are great, actually. I know Fujitsu labels them as entry level, but that makes them sound cheap, and they are very good units. We have installed lots of them and they are in my home as well. They work great and are by no means entry level.

Almost none of my customers use the timers, the ones that do get the wifi to use their phone with the timers. So I really do not know how to use them well enough for a video on that. Maybe I will make a video on that someday.

Yeah it's a huge difference

Nope, there was no mold. Typically, there isn't mold. What people think is mold is just a mixture of condensation and dust.

When the remote batteries start to get tired the remote screen will not be as dark and you have to get closer to the unit for it to get the signal. Just change the batteries and it should solve your problems.

@@TrolleyBrothers thanks for the reply! Man I had a ton of spelling errors in my original comment lol.

Your welcome.

Even if I knew I would never tell anyone that to be honest. It is not a good idea generally. I would suggest if you have gas available to go with an on demand water heater and not worry about the recovery ever again.

I would suggest an HVAC contractor like us that does water heaters. From what I am told with this unit, if the heat pump fails they just give you another water heater up to 10 years later. We install the line from our supplier and not what home depot has so there may be a difference there in the warranty procedure. The noise in the video is amplified by the camera. It is not very loud in person at all in my opinion. There are comparison videos online about the noise produced.

Yeah that one took a little time to figure out. Very interesting though.

Glad to hear it!

I think he was on the job too long...

thanks

exactly right

That's awesome. We have seen some very large ones but I don't think I have see one that big.

Thank you

Your welcome, This was the point of the video. We go over this same speech with every install and made a video for people to be able to hear it again afterwards.

Yes a single line set can be replaced but that requires a lot of steps before and after the replacement. it is not too bad to do.

I just want to be clear. Can 1 tech who works in the HVAC business replace a line set by himself ?

For most lines I would say yes. If the line is a difficult run then it may require more people.

Actually I can't remember off the top of my head what the part costs, it has been a while since I replaced this part. For labor side, that varies with all companies and also where you live. A local company could give you a free estimate, most do.

I get these at the home depot, it is my favorite type of cutter for this. The red button lets the jaw slide instead of turning it a lot to adjust. It is made by Husky I believe.

@@TrolleyBrothers thank you.

I don't know what model you have, but they all have wiring diagrams that come with them. I wouldn't want to give you an answer without knowing all the information.

Not any more than any other power vented water heater. Certainly electric would be silent in comparison.

Thanks for your reply. Electric would be great but might be much more costly to operate than gas…

There are really not any downsides. These do not store water like the old style whole humidifiers once did. These have water trickle down through the panel and the excess water drains away and goes into a pump. I have not seen any mold or moisture issues with these humidifiers. They also have an outdoor temperature sensor to limit the humidity when necessary.

Yes, On your remote there is a button to set the louvers in a certain position.

I do not work on dish washers, but I assume 140 degrees is a bit too much for them? I am really not sure though. You can choose another style mixing valve or pipe it like I did and just add a T before the valve.
