HVAC Service Call: Belt Driven Centrifugal Exhaust Fan Not Working (Broken Pillow Block Bearings)

[@mansourramzey7711]

Man that was a 3 man job , this was the hardest job i have seen from you. I hope they pay you well enough so you don't have to work no more 🙏✌because it really was a hard job.

[@ThomasEricWendt]

I like these vids a lot. I pick up small tips as a home diy'er. Thanks! One thing you should definitely be doing is taking your time at the locations to really show the surrounding area. It's such a unique Point Of View. Just 30 seconds or something. You're always on a rooftop with some wild view.

[@bluediamondgroup6412]

Great video! You did a fantastic job explaining the topic, and the visuals were helpful. I especially liked how you included examples to help illustrate your points. Keep up the good work!

[@clayfree7428]

Not sure how long you have been doing this kind of work but….. as a 34 year Commercial / Industrial HVAC tech you did a good job given the working conditions. 👍

[@VitalYFZ]

Wow, good job. Makes the little mushroom exhaust hood bearings I deal with look like childs play. Well done.

[@MMM_2031]

Dang! I do this at work all the time. Pillow blocks new shafts motors condenser towers etc but you my man did it by yourself for the most part ! Props to you!

[@luckizt]

Yo this was the toughest job I’ve seen on this channel yet. Nice work. I know nothing about HVAC and love learning stuff watching your vids. Keep uploading!

[@sultanhong]

You the MAN! A lot of ppls will turn their back to this kind of job! Great stuff, you have made lots of learning videos for the newbies.

[@ares3914]

You need small crescent wrenches in your tool bag. I've ran into similar issues with the bolt had no play and can't fit even thin wall socket to loose up bolt. Small crescent worked like a miracle. I like that small Milwaukee grinder, I'll be adding that to my tools

[@JumpermanTech]

I now have all the crescent wrenches in my bag. Down to the small 4 inch one. Theh are definitely great. That small milwaukee M12 fuel grinder is such a handy little tool. Love that its small so you can get into tight space and it's very light. Thanks for the advice & thank you for watching! Stay tuned for new videos every week🔧⚡️

[@billm6171]

Another great video. I live in a small rural Missouri Town. I cannot even imagine working under the conditions you work in

[@Clasped003]

Damn gotta give you props for this job it was a tough one. Love the content.

[@chefeatsher]

Tough service call but beautiful view

[@algee6180]

Your a Beast bro !!! I service a similar exhaust fan unit in our building that runs 12 floors, key to save those bearings and expand their lifetime is wipe off old grease and build up , and grease them up every 3 to 6 months . Great content bro !! Can’t wait for the next vid ! (Install of new parts)

[@albanliege4989]

hello Mister Jumper man !!! I like very mutch to see you !!!! good job !!!

[@johnnyjackpots505]

Thanks for sharing, stay safe out there brother!

[@izzybell11]

Hard job. Thanks for sharing this experience with us. Interesting and helpful video. You the man JMT.

[@moonlightacmaintenance3232]

I’ve had to cut windows before to make repairs. How’d you seal it up when you were done ? Sheet metal and self tappers ?

[@andyjones7836]

What a nightmare job, you definitely needed backup. I'm not sure if there was enough edge protection up there and that cover should have some sort of fixing afterwards. . Also at least there is better access to clean the grease off the impeller now! Glad to see that one's done, great job 👍👍

[@theduffster2581]

Nice removal bud 👍🏻 the easy part is putting it back together 👍🏻

[@hkhsm359]

Nice video. Alot works for a man do that. Thanks for sharing

[@samuelaranda4597]

Great video.Hard work. Proud of you

[@nicolerennie]

WOW! that looks terrifying😭 amazing work JMT✨

[@agostinhomartins8373]

Dope bro! I come from a residential background and have just made the transition in to commercial/industrial so to come across a page like yours is cool. Keep up the nice work. Btw which city are you in?

[@MariMuthu-ck5ih]

Hard and good job jm👍👍👍

[@SteelRims]

Why did part 2 never come out?

[@MrRalph438]

Great stuff. Awesome job!

[@rhpham2]

Yeah I was a building engineer back in my days for a hospital and man nothing is easy. I feel for you as you gotta be creative. That grease though is nasty

[@kennethlobo4420]

Difficult job U really need assistance here.Great video

[@mrgangler7854]

This is awesome great job cap

[@RomelCBRE]

Wow, great Job. Is there a link to part 2?

[@craigforster9861]

Open. END wrench

[@matinategousi4531]

Congrats man. Nice job

[@syedbasheer8210]

Very hard job👌

[@matthewclemons1574]

Those are fun some of the exhaust fans we take care of have 50 horse motors shafts are monstrous.

[@THEFURSE]

GREAT JOB

[@JumpermanTech]

Thank you! Stay tuned for new videos every week🔧⚡️

[@toyinorodare4072]

weldone! I love your work

[@slicksloth3586]

All you want is that shaft huh ? (; hAhahhaha good work as always brotha , seeing your socket not fit pissed me off lol thats some shit that i be going through sometimes but i always got my open ended wrenches too hehe

[@davidharmon8745]

Good job man!!!

[@NicholasSchott-or4do]

You poor bastard lol. I have one to do next week and was sort of dreading it. After seeing this one, I'm just glad it's 16floors up and dangling off of some sketchy mounting

[@nickpckles8902]

Get yourself a snap on or Ingersoll air hammer. You’ll use it every time on jobs like this. You can walk those bearing races off just with the vibration of the hammer. Often times without even cleaning the rust off the shaft.

[@sambaird3963]

Where can I find the install video?

[@TabbyJ23340]

Where is the part 2 of this?

[@IonRoux]

Would it not have been easier to just put a piece of steel across the brackets in front of the destroyed bearing, then just mount a new bearing 3 inches or so in front of the destroyed one and just abandon the bad bearing in place?

[@sherwinalvarez7365]

Yeah you should hace done that.

[@malachy1847]

Maybe could have had a go at cutting and slotted into the Hardened Steel race that was on the shaft then hit the race with a Chisel and Hammer... popping that Hardened bearing race stuck to the shaft... then sliding same off...but then agin its," Hurler on The Ditch.." great resolve, great Job...

[@ВадимМартынов-н8ю]

Молодцы, умеете работать. Я хочу с вами работать. 🥸

[@Jonitchon79]

Where’s part 2?

[@CallOfDutyInsider]

got lucky at 10:07 !

[@hvacrnortheastern2110]

No maintenance on unit be done keeping the pillows block grease but not over grease.

[@NicholasSchott-or4do]

Just hit the supply house? Definitely ain't finding those parts local where I live! Wyoming sucks for finding parts. Good shit tho

[@sergioramirez9025]

We're the other video?

[@AnthonyCazares-k4v]

Beast!

[@DetectingArizona]

man that SUCKS! wonder how many times those blowers have been rebuilt, those cages look old as dirt.

[@alexeytech1495]

Very interesting video. Super hard job Great job JMT. ✌️👍

[@mz6027]

Why don't you use puller to pull out this ??

[@spindlehospital5263]

Please use cooling spray to remove stoked pins out it will Work sure that

[@craigforster9861]

Wheel comes out the discharge

[@redfountainpete2417]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@graywolf2694]

Why don't engineers think of service?

[@slicksloth3586]

Because they already get paid bank to take naps next to a boiler :P

[@sherwinalvarez7365]

Man I wanted to dsee the pain It was putting the blade one the shaft.

[@MarioDallaRiva]

💪🏼

[@misterdude206]

Trifecta of bullshit on this one man haha. Weird access. Rain. Awesome stuff.

[@67tr876]

DAM ! that's all am going to say.

[@sandy1653]

How much you wanna bet nobody's ever been up there with a grease gun to grease those bearings?

[@BasketballAve]

Guys were to lazy to grease that rear bearing 😂… I always grease that shit I hate changing out bearings

[@stanleyroberts2461]

You need a pulley puller

[@acechoice45]

Dame the whole pillow block bearing is gone (wow)

[@tonyblack5645]

$2000.0 service fee...nothing less

[@Burkenation]

Damn dude…

[@berryblack3612]

It’s a bushing.

[@notanewbie1718]

Very poor engineering for maintenance. Feel for you bro.

[@CUAUHTEMOCVEGATORRES]

I would just replace the whole fucking thing.

[@CUAUHTEMOCVEGATORRES]

That thing is so overenginnered, overcomplex, overuseless, why not set it with a direct drive motor? why not put a little cover to protect the motor, why not bigger dual ball bearings, why not a door instead of a fixture to encage the turbine. I fell like this is so expensive and so wrongfukly made.
