Was kind of hoping to also see an explanation about portable vs "installed" ones (idk the terminology); I live in a rental place and cannot just decide to have an air conditioner installed. I heard that there are portable ones where you put the hose through the window, but they make a lot of noise? I'm not too familiar with them. Or if there's other solutions since there's lots of insects around here. If I put the hose through the window I'm sure to have a lot of wasps and mosquitos come and visit and if its very noisy I'll have neighbours who come and pay me a visit... I live in the Netherlands and know nobody personally with air conditioning, but I live on the top floor of a very old building and its poorly isolated. Combine that with the heat my neighbours produce that rises up to here and it just gets really uncomfortable, 36 degrees celsius at night sometimes (while for us, like 18 or less is normal). Just trying to figure out my options before I make a purchase I regret, but we've only just started to get summery weather and it shot up 7 degrees, from 20 to 27 and I already can't stand the heat xD Anyway thanks for this explanation but I don't think it'll help me much with what I'm looking for.

Is this the…S9V2 😂

Hi guys. What’s the best efficient way to cool a room to 7c during night then 18 in the day?

I would not take the BTU or EER ratings of portable air conditioners seriously. The single duct units are horribly flawed in design, and their actual BTU delivery is often only 60% of the rated amount. The DOE made them re-rate their outputs separately from the old ASHRAE BTU numbers not too long ago. My "12,000 BTU" portable AC was a joke and couldn't cool the living room down more than 5 degrees F at full blast, whereas my 12,000 BTU mini split barely needs to even turn on at the lowest setting and has no problem cooling on hot days.

We have recently moved to a new house but now in summer at an average temperature of 45 degree Celsius every wooden door and furniture in our house have gotten cracks joints losses and intense damage is this due to high humidity or low humidity 😢??

My blower fan “hits” hard when it is cycled on. (Think; every time the AC cycles on at night, it wakes me up) Can a hard start kit be installed on the blower fan capacitor to help soften the startup ?

Can you go over how to shut an old furnace off? I have a switch " on, off, fan" i turned it to off. I have black knob that says on, off and pilot. I can turn that from on to pilot but not past it to off. Any suggestions?

How much do you charge for a standard ranch style home of 1200 SF, with easy access to the furnace? Ball Park.

How do you keep a whole home humidifier from creating mold inside the HVAC system

I actually took back my like based on your misinformation or lack of understanding

Ok so ..That ANd.... was killing me Ok But I liked the fact that u.. ok gave me info b4 u asked ok.. Simmer down on the AND.. OK And Dont make that your thing Ok..😊 (And...) my portable unit Has everything from heat to dehumidifier Ps a concrete tub under a 2x4 stand w plywood gives u a flat 5 gallons to drain and that's plenty for the day And that includes Florida

67% humidity in my house at the time . But my house doesn’t really have that many open areas to suck air in

As a HVAC tec, I approve this video. We’ll done on this video. This is a very accurate explanation of what these are used for.

Is a carrier 2 or 2.5 ton less efficient when it in the dehumidify mode?😊

Thanks all!

So easy to understand, thank you!

Great video! Thanks for all the information. I'm tired of keeping the fan on full blast just to fall asleep during the summer. Bedroom is above a garage

Any video on how to replace the filter of this unit ?

I have one room that is always hotter than the rest of the house….. should I have the duct size changed

not a review, but an infomercial.

Great video

My landlord here in Houston has 65-70% humidity in the house?

With so many modern designs for home thermostats, I wonder why these ones look like from 1995 :/

These kits are a band-aid for compressors with start issues. That's the reason manufacturers don't design compressors with them. I have two 2 ton compressors going strong 21 years. I did try one kit and it did in fact reduced LRA and light dimming at start-up. However it added another point of failure which it did fain within in a year. Haven't looked back since... There is no better mousetrap and snake oil is for fools money.

Do I need a 3-1 hard start kit? What is best HS kit for standard residential AC?

Why does the mini split lineset need to be ran through the outside ? Can’t they just be ran through attic and into the wall?

I have a 3 story town home. the 3rd floor is 15 degrees warmer in the Summer and 15 degrees colder in the winter that the 2nd floor and 17 degree different than the finished basement. The 3rd floor doesn't get enough air to blow out a match and not enough air to feel from any of the vents. The dampers have been checked the returns have been checked and the insulation has been checked and inspected. We replaced the system about 8 years ago and have it inspected every winter and Summer. We investigated having zoning installed and even contracted to have a company update our system to put in electronic dampers. But that very bin=g supposedly reputable company never bothered to show up to do the install. Since then We have been told by other companies that we need to just accept the temp differences and that's the way it is. we have a 3,000 sq ft town home with 3 floors and a 3 ton Carrier system. during the summer and winter the 3rd floor ( where the bedrooms are its miserable) at least in the winter we can add blankets but all summer long its a sweat box. Am I wrong in thinking there MUST be a solution?

What are the various indoor electric heat pumps?

Thank yout

I thought the xr16 was it two stage

Great informative video. I have a friend who does HVAC tell me with an air purification system, you can also install a UV light. With this system, would you recommend an additional UV light or is it not needed? Also, the main benefit to this is to reduce allergens. One reason I am looking into purchasing one, is I’ve been told these systems reduce household dust. Therefore, reducing the amount of cleaning a home owner needs to do. Can you confirm, if I can expect a cleaner home after installation? Thank you

I used Fire & Ice (Corona, California) for the first time last week, to service my parents’ HVAC system. I was really pleased with them. I live in a double wide mobile home near parents’ home, and have been having a problem with dampness in the crawl space under my home. The home is set in a permanent foundation made of cinder blocks. There is no vents to the crawl space, just the entrance through a hinged door, like a storm shelter. The underneath is held up by the piers. I have lived here for 5 years, and since last winter, I’ve been getting a horrible smell coming into my house- musty, is the best is to describe it. I smell it more when I sniff down by the floor registers, which I keep covered with magnetic covers when I’m not using the heater or AC. I had the moisture barrier repaired under the house, hoping that would help, and on nice days, I hook open the crawl space door, and run a 12” industrial fan to try to push ventilation under the house. Will duct cleaning help this?

This is good information 🎉

How often is it recommended to dust clean?

I have a dug out basement little venting in my home right now in may its 76! When i turn on ac goes down to 50-55

Can you recommend any contractor can check, suggest and actually do a good job in NJ?

I've lived all over the world. Outside of America, people use nothing or split units. Split units work great. You can have one or two and it can handle a 1500 to 2500 sq house. Like he mentioned,...they can handle zones. The quality ones are quiet....nothing bad to say about them if maintained. Put them in the room you want the most cool or heat and that's it. They heat and cool...they humidify. I didn't know anything about them until I saw/used them out side America. I'd buy one with no problem. They're best in new construction with houses that are well insulated.

How often we should do duct cleaning ?

I have two vents in my bedroom both on the wall one top one below is should one should be shut off another one on

Is it recommended to keep the E100 NEXT to the HVAC in the basement and simply letting the whole house air eventually equilibrate or does it need to be tied directly into the HVAC duct work? If it must be tied in then does the E100 have a humidity gauge for each level of the home when tied into the whole house HVAC and, if so, would zoning be required to maintain each of the three story levels ? I am asking because a local company is recommending the E100 but says it is "too much wiring" for my three story home and it would also cause the third floor to be too dry? I do not agree with them at all but they are the "pros". Thus, they want the E100 to simply sit next to the HVAC in the utility room and drill upper and lower vents in the room to allow the air to circulate by convention for the cost of .......$6500. To me this is a total JOKE but your feedback is appreciated since I may just try to do it myself.

I have a Trane 15 seer 4 ton for 15 years and it is the best mouse and snake trap invented. The mice as I understand it love the soy in the wiring I cant explain the snakes, except maybe they are after the mice.

Great video, looks like a great company!

im seriously wanting to change my career as a sheet metal worker, ive been a installer for 20years. what could i read or look into to study for a sales in hvac ?

Unfortunately Trane quality has gone down over the last few years. Trane warranty is tricky. My adult son purchased two units two years ago. One has been a lemon. Leaked refrigerant from the beginning, the refrigerant was leaking from the evaporator. This supposedly caused the condensate pan to fail and leak water. Replacement refrigerant is not covered by Trane's warranty so he has spent about a thousand dollars for replacement refrigerant. Several technicians could not locate the refrigerant leak. After two years a different technician using a detector found the evaporator leaking, something he said has become more common with Trane units. The replacement evaporator is being provided by Trane but he is having to pay for labor and more refrigerant. I encouraged him to pay more and get Trane based on my previous experience with Trane. I regret that I did that as well as being disappointed that Trane quality has deteriorated.

The chart at 2:40 in this video is a much know and have humidity chart.

Will dirt come inside the house after cleaning?. I mean dirt from the stuff that was upthere.

I recently replaced 2 air conditioner at my house. On 4/10/24.” I had a 5 ton Lennox XC16 SEER a/c it previously cooled the upstairs and I had a Goodman 4 ton from 2018, the old upstairs a/c wouldn’t cool under 80. And the downstairs a/c would cool not that well.” I got 2 brand new Goodman air conditioners. One is a 5 ton (upstairs) and a 3.5 ton (downstairs) For the last 2 summers I had to get my old upstairs a/c worked on, when July would roll around. The Lennox furnace was rusted out, now I can stay cool and comfortable upstairs with my brand new air conditioners!! 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶

Working great!

Just put an infinite
