I've been in the commercial/industrial/institutional hvacr service business for over 40 years and never seen a vehicle so well thought out and equipped as yours. Great job!

[@johnd4348]

Just started doing industrial hvac work. Not a big fan of it. We do mostly industrial metal forging places. it's hot noisy and very dirty. Can never get my tools clean. After one service call I look like I just spent a day in a coal mine.

[@matthewwax4434]

@@johnd4348would you recommend commercial hvac, thinking about starting an apprenticeship

[@rodgraff1782]

I had about 8 different service trucks over my career. I always liked vans vs. service body trucks. You have to be very disciplined to keep them organized when you’re busy. Always return everything, especially tools to their proper place. And try to unload all of the junk parts from jobs daily. Otherwise it turns into a mess very quickly.

[@lowvoltagevex]

This is quite literally the best service van I've ever seen. So organized and clean. Makes me wanna do some renovations to mine!

[@TheRealJoeCarter]

Extremely impressed with how well you've utilized the available space! Definitely gives me an idea on what I need to stock up on, and how to make it all flow!

[@noelwhyte9834]

Oh yeah this video deff getting added to the van organizing playlist.

[@zachcovey975]

Sweet set up! No matter how hard I try to keep mine organized, at the end of the week, my floor is covered and have to empty it out and start over on the weekend. Some great ideas for organization! Thanks for the video!

[@swanjaymusic]

Now that is how a service truck should be set up. 30 plus years and only 2 times in all these years have i had a truck that even comes close.... I am totally impressed. thank you for the perfect example. PERFECT AC&R SERVICE TRUCK....... My buddies plumbing truck is set up like this...... Great Job....

[@leojoseph6385]

That is an amazing setup! Congratulations on building such a well organized service truck. Thank you for sharing it!

[@jonathankowalczyk5435]

I love your obsession with the little details they really make a huge difference! you have created a increible "Set Up" !!!

[@bradmironik6137]

Good comprehensive video tour. I can see you put some thought into this setup based on experience. I do agree if you can find items quickly w/o searching forever in the van will make life less stressful. Thanks and always enjoying your content.

[@billjoplin4156]

That's an awesome setup on your new rig. Very neat, organized, and professional. Thanks for sharing, and keep those videos coming.

[@ljslw]

You just convinced me into getting that floor drawer. I was hoping you’d show how you stored your refrigerant tanks. Your van is a reflection of you. It shows us that you are a professional, prepared, knowledgeable and organized. This will save you time, impress your customers/boss, as well as earn their trust. The little effort to stay organized will pay off in a big way at the end of the day. You’ve done a great job with your van! Plus, the video was great as well!

[@oby-1607]

That's so organized, you gonna find everything when you need it. One beautiful work rig.

[@anthonymastello1573]

The End....just messing with you! 😂🤣😂🤣 Nice van and setup. 👍 Can’t wait to get my new Transit 250 and start getting it setup.

[@BassWhoopinFishingTeam]

Beautiful setup man! I myself just converted from my Milwaukee M12 fuel to the M18 fuel as i'm an install guy now where as before i did everything so i ended up opting for the M18 stuff as it's much better for new construction cut ins and heavier duty stuff. Really love them so far! Love the setup though! I always love to see techs who take great pride in their vans and keeping things neat. That goes a long way. I see too many guys just throwing stuff on shelves randomly. I give ya huge props! Love the creativity too! Utilizing PVC fittings and custom making your own floor boards. Very well done! Be safe out there!

[@marcusx3635]

Great Video! I used it as a teaching tool for my HVAC students at Richmond Community College in Laurinburg NC. Thank You.

[@loloc7664]

So organized... Takes for ever to find for what I'm looking for in mine. Yet again it's kinda nice . Having it messy your never know what you'll find !!!

[@wisewiener1]

lolo c Haha so damn true!!!

[@RyRY257]

Recently got into HVAC, and I love it. Appreciate your uploads man!

[@honesthvacguy325]

Great video! your van is loaded to the max, yet everything has its place. very well done.

[@jamesweeks5377]

Thanks for teaching me how to get my van organized, a very good lay out!

[@rbilardo47]

Very neat clean and squared away van. You did an awesome job, you did it right and you keep it extremely neat and organized. Van will definitely pass a Marine Corps inspection. Well done.

[@jaymesrod4209]

Keeping a service vehicle clean is also a way a customer can view your company. Our company emphasizes on clean vehicles so I understand where AK HVAC coming from. Very nice!!

[@raysh3845]

That’s what I call a mans work truck with everything that you will have when needed. I would call your HVAC van no job too little or too big. I really enjoy your video. Thank you, Ray ⚙️

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

That is a very nice set up!! I love to see someone organized! I am automotive mechanic and keep all my tools organized, it has proved that makes me more profitable!!

[@alexiscabeza7243]

Great Video. The best set up I've seen so far.

[@chriscox8696]

Very cool bud, started building storage bins out of plywood after watching this video. Another idea I use alot is a combination of c-clamp, carabiner and fabric strap. Store hoses, ropes and cords this way. It's all about using every inch of available space. Nice job.

[@23x31]

That's a monster load of tools. I do residential AC service as a hobby, mostly for friends, family, friends of friends, etc. and aside from my torch, pump and recovery tanks, its RARE that I'll need much more than a tool bag and a set of gauges to repair over 90% of every job I've done.

[@AKHVAC]

Steve Roginski yes, but it’s my livelihood, not a hobby so I need to be able to repair 100% of my jobs, not 90%. That pesky 10% is where you get outside of just the tool pouch and torches. Thanks for watching!

[@RGmultiservicios]

A real hardware store on wheels !!! I want it!!! thanks for sharing this video Bro. Greetings from Cabo San Lucas, BCS, México

[@KevinMichaelMichael]

Great video. Love seeing guys who take pride in their work!

[@JuanTodoli]

The other day I picked up the inclinated shelves of the side door idea and today you have iluminated me with that vertical bracket for the large pipe wrenches. Not at all a long video, love it. Definitely you are a two is one, one is none man.

[@marcbrooks8409]

thanks man I love the van, great vids keep it up

[@shatoboy1]

I had before a little ford transit and it blew the transmission. I bought me in emergency a Toyota 2003 sienna 6 cilinders , I removed the seats , made some wooden shelfs and everything so far fits inside the van. My insurance also drop and this is a great reliable service van. So far it takes me everywhere. I love my sienna now

[@benjaminjeffries681]

Ive been a tech for 20 years, never have i obsesed over my vehicle like this 😂 you must have zero personal time. Especially doing videos of it all. Good on you.

[@mhoush]

Amazing all the stuff we can get in our vans, I love my transit 250. Great organization of the van AK... I liked the wood wedges to hold some tools boxes in the shelf. 👍

[@bnmarshall]

Great organization. Just a friendly FYI, the Transit 250 had a massive recall campaign to replace the flexible driveshaft coupling. Our University of Iowa fleet had 12 of these that had to go in to the dealership for preventative replacement. Ask your dealer if your new model is effected or may be effected. I'd hate to see you have downtime for something that can be prevented.

[@juanramon10-14]

Yoo my boy, you have a nice setup clean, without sacrifice equipment. You carry what you and at the same time keep the unit clean and organized👍.

Dude you are one organized Tech/Person My hats off to you Few things I will say is I did not see any fan motors or more parts you have more tools than parts in truck stock and all your tools are to new and have not been used but I got to give it to you your van is awesome!

[@SilverCymbal]

Love the setup! One of the best I have ever seen

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

And don't worry about the comments of you having to much time to keep the Van organized! I know from experience that this makes work faster!! I beat any on my shop per repair time! No wasting time looking for a tool or part! I know where everything is!! Congratulations!!

[@timothyjerry2455]

Hey thanks for the reality check as to how disorganized my 250 is. Thanks for sharing this and the ideas, that’s a can to be proud of for sure 🇺🇸👍🏻

A lot of YORK stickers. I use to work for YORK here in Sweden. That later became Johnson Controls. Johnson where closed in 2013 and sold in smaller units. Didn’t like Johnson but i loved working for YORK. Still working with HVAC in Sweden. Nice truck you have. I have a Ford 350 mid roof from 2016. Really nice to drive

Best regards.

Well hell yeah we need to see the cab,haaaa Good video man .. I have the same van and I've been wanting to go through and reset up mine this weekend. So thanks for the ideas. Peace

What you talking bout willis lol

[@pwalms65]

Dude! I've been on my tools for 30 yrs and have worked out of some decently set up vans but I have NEVER seen a van set up as good as this. I hope that thing is making you or your company some money because that thing is a rolling supply house. Like someone else asked, I'd like to hear your response to how often you clean and reorganize. When I was on the road doing commercial stuff, I tried to clean and reorganize my van every Friday or Saturday. By the following Wed, it looked like the van had been rolled a few times. Awesome video and that is a sweet ride. Stay safe!

[@kaylamarie8309]

That is an amazing service van layout!

[@jaydillon5604]

Nice, just needed another idea! Perfect thanks

[@larryloftis9064]

I did service on manufactured homes(mobile Homes for 25 years and I always kept more than one of everything and I cannot stand a dirty or cluttered truck. I had a box van but carried drywall panels and just about anything needed to repair or replace parts that normally broke. I always knew where every tool or part was at hen I was done it went right back in its place. I always joked if I don't have it you don't need it. Great set up and clean looking truck. Another thing people pay attention to your truck and usually will want you back if your truck looks organized.

I have the transit 150 version of your van. I have the double set of drawers but I don't have the stand up cabinet as I am not an HVAC tech. I removed the rack with the parts bins as I don't really have a need for that so I put a mini fridge and plugged it into my inverter. I do a lot of in town and a lot of out town calls so its nice to have better food with me that won't spoil. I was guilty of too many fast food outlets. I really appreciate the tour, interesting to see the same van with different tools and parts.
