Fantastic info. Updating my inspection template to make sure I don't miss these items.

I hope I can come next year!

I need to get certified, how can y'all's help me? Tia

She's in trouble for repeatedly calling herself an architect. You should take this video down for her sake.

Very helpful. Thanks!

I'm very excited to watch this video so I can tell my contractor I am direct-vent gas fireplace certified! LOL - just kidding 😊

Here in Maine stud walls are 2x6 then 3" air gap and 2x4 is just enough for those cold winter nights :)

Thanks for posting this yall. I learned a lot!

I liked the video until I saw the email at the end showing Bob a Biden supporter not to mention celebrating the US rejoining the Paris accords - something that is disastrous for the US. Biden stole the 2020 election! FJB LGB #Trump2024

great video! very informative!

would something like an air-to-air heat pump based ERV work in the sub 1.5 ton situations?

I see lots of comparisons to California. I don't know how smart it is to follow a state with as many problems as California. There is a reason the cost of living in California is so much higher than in Texas and especially Oklahoma. Every singe one of these recommendations will increase the cost of living hurting the very people your equity is supposed to assist. You will force the poor out of personal transportation and on to public transit restricting their freedom of movement. Your appliance and building regulations will increase the cost of housing leading to the post apocalyptical hellscape that is the homeless crisis seen in L.A. and San Francisco. Other than setting "targets", the states shown as having the best policies are also the most expensive places to live. Increasing costs via stricter regulations, for utilities will be passed down to the consumers. Have any of you tried to obtain some of these rebates the government offer? It is a nightmare of red tape and bureaucracy. EV credits only benefit higher income people. It will be years, if ever before lower income people will be able to afford EV's. Also, EV's are substantially heavier that ICE vehicles causing more wear on the roads yet they pay no road tax because the do not buy gasoline. Yet another boon for higher income people. The felt effective warmth provided by natural gas furnaces is much great than a heat pump and, once the outside air temperature drops below the effective heat transfer, a heating coil comes on completely negating the efficiency and increase the load on the grid substantially. Has anybody looked at the damage caused to the environment by all the refrigerants used by and leaked from these heat pumps? Again, all of these recommendations will increase the cost of living especially the lower middle class who can't afford an EV even with the credits and are just above the income level of people who will be getting funding. Not only will their cost of living increase but so will their taxes, direct and indirect.

Looking for a job in texas

Excellent. Caring about people. Thanks.

What do you think about using 1/4" or 1/2" Wonderboard over plywood for waterproofing? I have a small area of plywood that will get a stucco coat. I plan to water seal the wood then cover it with Tyvek and then Wonderboard.

Great stuff ,Jason where in tx are you? I'm a contractor too in Dallas

I’m having a hard time finding a definitive answer for the north Texas region on which adoption of IECC they are on. Any thoughts?

Thanks for your great conference. I do have a question. If I do have to replace only the outside unit for a customer who has a 14 seer existing system, will be legal to install the same 14 seer condenser if I have it? South East (Florida) Thanks

I am trying to figure out how I volunteered to be under any authority of the DOE.. I dont recall giving that consent.

Eight tanks on the truck. Wow and how many vacuum pumps and how many recovery tanks are we still going to use 410-@ and r22😂😂😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😮😮❤❤❤❤❤😢😢😢😢🥺🥵😭

Yeah I want three times the money I’m getting now for all this crap take home

Hello any questions or any comments and the answers

So what do you do with the condos and places that you cannot put anything better than a 10 or 12 Seer units . Barely can do a 13 as it is in most cases. Mostly because the line sets and the duct work are crap😢❤😅🎉 douche bags😮

F. the government regulations I’m in the industry for years this is still getting ridiculous what’s next time to retire. Do your research go with a Joe Schmoe that you can trust. Ask him what they would put in their house and go with it! I’m gonna build my own unit from my house. I guess the scrap guys gotta start selling it to some secondhand places. Starting need piling up. I guess a good tech deck and fix old unit so it’s gonna be worth a lot of money❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😅😂

Cut out the small talk. I love the video but you’re killing my data for download.

Nice presentation. My opinion is every thing sounds good but will bring a lot of complications for contractors.

I’m a homeowner and I heard this entire overview. Great information and I wonder how many contractors will go out of business or just retire with all these new changes going into affect? I hope none.

This guy must be an attorney. This material is an amazing presentation on this topic.

PDF's released yet?

hello nice video

Thank you very much for this presentation. I have learned alot of valuable information from this that I will definitely be applying! As precise as you were about so many things here I believe that the definition of a "ton of cooling" capacity deserves a better, more precise definition than what was given around 43:00. Refrigeration was originally sized in terms of how many tons of ice it could make per day. The latent heat of freezing of water is 144BTUs per pound * 2000 lbs/ton = 288,000 BTUs/ton. Divide that by 24 hrs/day = and you get 12,000 BTUs / hr / ton. The way you expressed it didn't account for the full day at 12,000 BTUs/hr to make (or melt) one ton of ice.

I installed a daikin this weekend, and tons in the past. You guys must NEVER ask a service mechanic for advise cause the service valves tight to the side and pointing down is ridiculous. You guys know most of us are using recovery tools these days and you make it near impossible to use them.

Is there a cost difference between timer and motion sensor system ?

Keep it coming. Use a service like Promo'SM!!!

Great information I was just introduced to your KZbin channel by watching a video released a year ago by the international Association of home inspectors. Your videos are extremely packed with detailed information that is much needed in your industry I’m surprise your videos were not recommended to me earlier.

also, the condensate drain line gets impacted with the gypsum dust, and invariably, there's an overflow problem, truly tragic. a brand new home with a used and abused HVAC system. ungood.

Great video. I just bought a house and the flex duct is lets say a "Mess". I'm not an HVAC tech but have done many commercial inspections and when the home inspector showed me pics of this flex I knew it would be a problem and the unit and ductwork are just a year old. I could send pictures if you like for use in other videos, just let me know. My attic is very big and I have 2 returns one on each end of the house, which I'm glad there is, but I have no clue as of yet whether or not it's in the right locations and/or sizes. With that said, there are numerous issues with the duct, you name it and it is in my attic. All the duct will have to be disconnected, stretched, 90's and 45's, and sleeves added along with multiple straps/hangers added. The plenum looks way too small also, but have to verify. A question. I'd like to evaluate whether or not the system ductwork is sized properly, has the right size plenum, and has the right size return air duct sizes and locations. What resource would be best for me to accomplish that task on my own? Thanks

i got a 4ton for 1300sqft thats 350ft per ton in southern Nevada easy 115 degree days, i aim to get 1600cfm and my filter is 20x20x1 side by side for a total of 20x40 filter return. i currently use the honeywell HD merv 11 filters but i think ill start using the 3m 1200 merv 11 because of the more surface area on the filter to help decrease static pressure if that doesnt help ill try to use 4in filter

As always, informative presentation!

Excellent information. Thank you for posting!

Thank you for this!!!

Thank you so much for sharing this excellent information

Ever hear of the Cerv 2??? Building equinox I think
