Phenomenal vid 🤙🤙, Thanks!

"but not two miles cause that shit gets expensive" 😂. Words from a wise man.

Hi. Did you leave that small hole below the power panel or did you patch up?

Great video! Thanks! I would be nervous about putting in the ground rods so close to the underground natural gas line even though you are on the other side of the meter away from the street side.

I installed my first mini-split 10 years ago, This last fall I installed another one that runs on solar panels. Heat and cools. I'm a retired CATV tech.

Hello Gonzo, make sure you keep your Daddy Straight! If he is installing it wrong, bite him! 😂

Hotest day I ever did a 100 amp setvice it was 104 degrees for an cheap ignorant cousin that me & my dad did not charge any labor. We asked het for a cup of water twice but ended up drinking warm water out if s gardrn hose. End of job we took off our work boots and sat on her chairs with our firty feetnin her kiddie pool. Following month dhe wanted us to vome over thst day to run a line to s window air conditioner. Told her we were nooked up gor restnog summer.

Another great video Ron. You should do a video with Craig Migliaccio (ac service tech). He also lives in NJ. It would be great if you could do the electrical part of installing a split system where you show the electrical circuit from the panel to the outdoor disconnect and Craig shows the actual HVAC installation. I actually do both electrical and HVAC at my current job. Both you and Craig have been inspirations to me for forging ahead and getting both of my licenses. Thanks for the great informative videos.

Amazing the ultility company has the ability to disconnect your power at a smart meter but can not install a $5 lockable lever to manually open meter relay contacts so customer had to spend mega bucks to have the NEC mandated outdoor service disconnect. Would never want my branch cirvuit breakers being outdoors nor would my senior citizen customers.Nice neat work. Nice to see you did not instsll another garbage ge jumk panel. Last two GE brand new panels I had to work on neithet door would open more then 75 degrees even after removing them.

Real nice job, Ron. Great to see a Jersey guy knockin it out of the park with your professional workmanship!

How do you like the osk-illating m18 over the m12?

Good Job! BAE

Since the ground and neutral are bonded in the outside disconnect enclosure, shouldn't the grounds and neutrals be kept separate in the breaker panel? In the video it looks like they are connected to the same bus bar.

What do you like better the Eaton Br panels or Homeline Square D. Thanks

I came down from Ontario Canada to see M3. awesome show!!

GREAT work. Can't wait to see the completion.

Better put some duct seal in that hole! LOL! Better be careful too. You just might start getting calls for AC work!

This is awesome to see! Could you say what the price range is for this type of electrical job? Apprentice electrician aspiring to have my own business one day!

Great video. Like the step by step process. Nice flag.

What room are you putting the AC unit into? Your garage already looks like it has ducting for heating?AC.

Love your New Jersey for Trump flag

Even though it's not your normal type of video I commend you and everything you do look forward to more videos

Great video, thanks. I’m not an electrician, but a DYI service man. I have had to work on live wires and thanks to God, I’m still here. Once was a new garage, under ground service to an existing panel. The other was a new brick added and pipe had to be rebent to accommodate the new brick.

Cool homeowner some people not to nice

This is a great idea for video and you said Lindsey 17 feet but think mr cool only does 15 or 25 and up

Curious why your installing new mini split unit when you already have a wall unit in that room. Wall unit not adequate? Or you gonna add multiple heads to mini split for multiple rooms?

I just did one of these! I'm still editing my video, lol. I did not do rebar in my pad because it's so small, you know? Overkill. The indoor units are so light, I figure they are fine just with some plastic anchors in the drywall. The lineset is also helping to hold the unit up kinda. I went with a different brand than Mr. Cool and I cut the lineset and reflared the ends to make a nice professional install. Do it right the first time, right?

Love your videos. Prolly coulda used some rebar in the perpendicular direction too. Jersey for TRUMP!!

Good job on the A/C ,they have really improved those mini splits from when they first come out.

Great install, take the unit down, lower the backing plate and cover the hole. Concrete pad is golden! I use a low-cost frame to mount to the pad and then mount the Outdoor unit to the frame. If I don't pour a pad, 4x8x16 cap stones arranged in a 24 x 48 pattern with a pair of 24x24 cap stones to cover.

You can also hang the condenser unit. The pad looka great. Just keep the area clean and clear for condesner to move the air freely. Cant wait to see the eclectic side. I was both resi and commercial both HVAC and Sparky in AZ wanna see how you Eaat Coast guys do things. 😂

Love the "banner" in the garage...Watched to entire video just to see more of it...🤗

love watching a fellow electrician. been in the trade for 45 years

Great video! I like your Go Trump banner hanging up!👍

Won't snow accumulation in winter block the fans preventing it from working?

Nice job, Ron.

18k is 18,000 BTU which means it’s a 1.5 ton unit…looking good so far Ron 👍🏆 BTW, you can purchase a pre-made concrete base for these just like for generators…save some time and energy for sure

Did you know they sell pre-made slabs-bases for ac-units, way cheaper and less work than all the crap you went through...

Mans got a Home Depot in his garage. That’s my issue I have the knowledge but I don’t have the tools for all the jobs. Side note I’m guessing the 18k is the btu

I installed an 18k senville unit 2 years ago. It was about a grand cheaper but I had to borrow a vacuum pump and gauges from a buddy to finish the install. It also allowed me to not have all that extra lineset coiled up behind the unit

Should try to dig out as much organic soil and replace it with none organics which will help with movement during freeze thaws and droughts

how old is Gonzo??

You the man Ron😊 !!!

Good to see you getting out of the norm. One thing I focus on with your videos is deciding what steps of a project I can do and what I should hire out. I'm doing a 220VAC 24K BTU, 3 cassette (indoor units) mini split. Do you plan to use any special type of breaker to protect the unit from lightning, loss of power, or other electrical transients that might damage the unit(s)? Thanks for the video!

How old is your dog 🐕?

What’s your initial impression of that diamondback drill holster? I also have the tempo belt and i was thinking about putting one in the back because i currently just hang my m18 impact on the webbing

Any reason to not use one of the pre-made condenser pads? Versus building your own?

Also dont worry about strayi g from your usual content i think i watched sveral of peterson electricle redoing his deck a backflow preventer and something about a well system trouble lol

I think another hreat youtuber who dose plumbing hvac (mikey pipes) mentioned anything over 15 ft you should add more charge like .2 a lb per foot (check the manufacturer instructions though some may add more charge for a longer line set.

Nice job. Thanks for sharing.
