DIYer AC Repair Attempt: Why This Homeowner Now Watches Me Like a Hawk

According to the video, a homeowner called a technician because his air conditioner wasn't turning on. The technician, who runs a KZbin channel WW HVAC, diagnosed the problem as a blown fuse and a bad contactor. The technician replaced the fuse and contactor, and then fixed a wiring mistake he made while replacing the contactor.
The video includes troubleshooting steps, which might be helpful to viewers who are interested in DIY repair. However, the video also shows that there can be risks involved in DIY repair, and it is important to know your limits and call a professional when necessary.

Walter you the best hvac contractor I have ever seen. Honestly. Recently had a customer who had me come out to check his condenser unit for a short.He followed me everywhere I went.Sometime it’s not worth the hassle or money so I left.Two days later he called me and said he purchased a condenser unit from Walmart and asked me to install it and I started laughing. I asked him why Walmart didn’t install it. People are nuts.When did Walmart start selling hvac units.????.You get what you pay for.Hell no you install it and hung up on him.😮😮😮

[@WWHVAC]

I dont install customer supplied equipment either, and I agree that sometimes it's not worth it dealing with certain customers. Thanks for the compliment! 🤣

[@emoneyblue]

Bruh when you replaced the contactor and was installing that hard start I said did he check the capacitor? I said he must have... Ive watched enough of your videos to know that you check everything. LoL great job my brother keep the videos and lessons going.

[@optionstraderman]

Great Job! I probably would have cooled my jets at a local coffee shop till that rain stopped, but that's just me, LOL!

[@MightyR1000]

It's funny how you said "keep your composure" and actually had to put that into practice for the rest of the video. Most people don't realize that whatever you learn and then execute on it when the time comes that it really works. Well handled.

[@markcotter2355]

33:39 can't find him because last guy was hit and killed by lightning. Be careful walt.

[@WWHVAC]

Too funny 😂 🤣

[@IALewis]

Walt get one of those pop up foldable tents from Home Depot for days like this

[@MCRD115]

Walter is out doing what other HVAC guys aren't doing hustling in the Rain. Awesome job my brother on the honest repair and telling the customer the truth on his equipment. This is your Shannon in Crosby Tx.

[@dariewalker]

When I have a helicopter hubbering over me I put them to work send them out to the condenser to see if it’s working a couple of times then to the thermostat a few times and maybe to the truck for a filter or two by then I’m done and he is tired lol

[@thesilentonevictor]

We are there to make the customer happy walter thanks for the video

[@s550wulf9]

Props for handling the customer like you did, I rarely get the over the shoulder quarterbacks, I think maybe because I'm a bit intimidating and I use vocabulary they have no idea what I'm saying. When I have those watching me that have bugged me I say stuff like need you to stand back live voltage and I don't want you to get hurt. Props to you bro, SUPER envious of your Van, I wish I had the utility bin sides and taller rooftop.

[@justwork_hvac]

Awesome video, brother.. we get those customers that follow us around. But that guy was not to bad lol. Was like having a helper lol. 🤟💯🌎

Yes. Really nice guy!

Great job as usual Walt.

Thanks for tuning in and the compliment!

[@RedMeet12]

I don't mind helicopters as long as they don't ask a thousand questions lol I like educating homeowners on the basics of HVAC and things they can do and not to do to their systems.

[@frankevans588]

Man I'm gonna be calling you, I got some questions about this one

[@GaddyAir]

Chw has changed. One of the better warranty companies now imo

[@WWHVAC]

In comparison to who?

[@derekhanks3430]

Gee Man, he's been watching you the whole time. He know what he's doing ?? Don't tell him too much he'll try to figure it out and do it himself. Don't tell him how many ohms. Don't tell him anything. Too much info out is not good ??

[@WWHVAC]

I agree. I have to stop giving too much info. Makes it look easy

[@solrac2156]

Lol,definitely true

[@blueticecho5690]

I tell em it's a 100 dollar Mr. Helper fee for looking over my shoulder..

[@WWHVAC]

Lol, if you noticed in the video, when I mentioned to him that he could ask if he needed anything, I was referring to any questions about my maintenance package. But his response was, 'I'm going in the attic with you.' He said, 'What do you mean?'

[@joselanda8316]

Hey man I'm an hvac contractor in southern Houston, are you as slow as we are this year? Just curious. Last year was awesome but this year has been a bust so far 🤷‍♂️

[@WWHVAC]

It sounds like you're experiencing a slowdown this year compared to last. The HVAC industry can be quite seasonal and also influenced by various factors, including economic conditions, weather patterns, and consumer spending habits. It's not uncommon for businesses in the same region to experience fluctuations in workload. However, there are a few strategies you could consider to help navigate through slower periods: Diversification: Look into expanding your services to include maintenance contracts, energy efficiency assessments, or smart home HVAC system installations, which could attract a different customer base. Marketing: Revise your marketing strategy to increase your visibility. This could involve optimizing your website for search engines, engaging with customers on social media, or offering promotions to encourage referrals. Networking: Connect with other contractors, real estate agents, and builders in your area to explore partnership opportunities. They might be able to refer clients to you when their customers need HVAC services. Training: Use the slower period as an opportunity to invest in training for yourself and your team. Learning new technologies or gaining certifications can make your services more attractive to potential clients.

[@WWHVAC]

Enduring the storm for HVAC work is like mining gold in harsh conditions: tough but lucrative. Every adverse day spent servicing units plants the seeds for a wealth of future earnings.
