HVACR VIDEOS HOUSE PROJECT PART 6

[@FrNMGuy]

I feel like this is everything you have wanted to do in your commercial projects that they would NEVER pay for. The meticulous thought and rethought is all shit we generally don't think about. Beautiful man.

[@billmiller5075]

Probably one of the nicest installs I’ve ever seen

[@brandongraser2939]

only us tradesmen get excited about clean lines .😄🙂 I love clean lines .

[@timothystevenson7907]

Not a tradesmen but can appreciate clean lines

[@e.miller]

The one issue with this install is that you’re doing it so well, nothing will ever break for you to fix in future videos! Loved the series.

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

But it will be super easy to try another brand of equipment….

[@handymandev03]

As most of us know Chris is very professional and always does a excellent job, now you know he's a true pro when he won't even take shortcuts in his own home.

[@james98852]

I would say that's more of a reason to not take shortcuts lol

[@BlakDrgn]

Brother. If you ever sell that house, the next hvac tech that comes to service that unit is gonna yell WTF when he sees this beautiful work.

[@bonexsher]

[@Aa-ron01]

I love watching what pros do in their own homes, it's always jank af😂 you'd rarely do for yourself what you'll do for others🤣 love it👍🏽 what's neat and what works are two very different things😛

[@David_Poole]

I see this series as HVAC P**n. You'd like to go to this level with every install, but you know no one would ever pay for it. My mechanical room is above and beyond what most customers would pay for, but I love geeking out and making my system as efficient and clean as possible

[@SCOTTYD2031]

2 comments: 1 great job on the carpentry. 2 you have a lovely assistant. Nice she could fit in that small space while you put in the air handler cabinet.

[@nathang.1744]

I’m 16, trying to go in to hvac and your videos inspire me,I hope all those airflow tests pay off, I wanna see how well it keeps up 100+ heat, neat! thank you sir,

[@richardbartlett6932]

Chris is one of the very best for educational 'onsite real world' training, Watch and rewatch his back catalogue . HVAC is a hard career choice it ruins more marriages than most jobs but you'll be in work for the rest of your life. Make sure you get trained properly and continue to train throughout your career. Maybe Chris is hiring?? My first boss gave us all a great bit of advice. he would always tell us " Never assume" He also said "don't try to fix the fault in the van on the way over" (see 'never assume') Good luck!!

[@nathang.1744]

⁠​⁠@@richardbartlett6932gonna check it out rn, he does make it look a lot easier than what it is but I know I can do it. My grandpa used to engineer giant industrial units for Martin Marietta arrowspace down here in fl and Disney hes the one who got me into it, I’d like to work my way up to that some day but the newer industrial systems prolly got a whole bunch of that variable speed dc stuff going on, like this one here in the video, I like the rtu units with the staging and scrolls, anyway just gonna have to keep learning

[@Kangenpower7]

I went to HVAC school in 1984, just out of high school. Now 40 years later, best decision ever! Look for a good HVAC trade school.. I went to UTI, and they only teach automotive now. (I guess drafting too). I spent $4,500 then, but today that would be about $15,000 in 2023 dollars. It took 9 or 10 months. Good luck!

[@Richard-zz2cb]

I am 16 and work for an HVAC company after school. It is great and they like me a lot just make sure you do what they say, be careful in attics not to fall through the ceiling and drink a lot of water.

Very impressive, sir!! The carrier service app, you need to send a request to carrier to be given rights to access the equipment and app.

[@thewatchersofthewood3530]

This is such an interesting system. I LOVE how quiet it is! The air to air I have at my rental property is so loud. I have never used the press fittings. in areas where I could not use fire always do flare but looks really fast to install.

[@chris66b55]

I made it to the end. I was apprehensive about ZoomLock the first time I saw the display in a local supply house, until I saw the signage said Parker. I trust Parker implicitly. Some of the deepest vacuums you could imagine (150 microns) happen in 30 minutes because there was only brazing at the units. Great looking install. I own and operate a company in Northwest Montana, I tell the guys installs need to look like a work of art. There is no excuse for sloppy work. Shop class used to be called Industrial Arts for a reason!

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I've had so many parker service valves to leak and parker accumulators to leak. I'm not too fond of Parker anymore

[@zjeepgozweeln]

Flex is fine when it's pulled tight like you did. Nobody can argue with your static measurements. IMO, best practice is using flex for runs that are straight/sweeping turns and inserting rigid elbows to turn tighter corners. Like the one in your attic that goes up and back down over the saddle hanger would be a great place for a rigid elbow. Then you can pull the flex about as tight as you want (without compressing the insulation).

[@Duracellmumus]

When i was teen i want to go thru things /to start to compleet/ in one pass without any stopping. I always do the same kind of mess around me. Later i learnt have to do a breaks and let the things wait until i came back at optimal mental shape with a clean brain and envionment around me, to do the best. The instal is get so realistic by the unknown factors. The airflow diffrence is can made by the air line resistance because the walls are uneven and gets some turbular air oposit direction to the flow. Case like when add stuffing in a air line wall, the flow energie is partly turn to heat inside the stuffing material.

[@nightone9720]

I love the zoomlock max fittings. I ended up working on a large warehouse freezer refrigeration system last week. This system holds 100 lbs of R404a. It's a rather old system and the compressor and receiver are inside the warehouse and the condenser is on the roof. The zoomlock max fittings saved my butt because when I front seated the receiver king valve in order to pump down the system so I could replace the solenoid valve, the receiver king valve would not hold. It leaked refrigerant by and so I couldn't make the repair because I would not have been able to pull a proper vacuum on the system. I would have been evacuating refrigerant and that would not work. So luckily I was able to purchase a refrigeration ball valve and press it into the system after the king valve. Then I was able to close the ball valve and make my repair and pull a deep vacuum. The zoomlock max tool and fittings are a wonderful tool to have. If you follow the proper procedure given by zoomlock then you will have a strong fitting and it will not leak.

[@nightone9720]

@@Damn-Son I hear you 100%. I definitely tried that. That has actually worked for me in the past but it wasn't this time. 😭 thank God for the zoomlock max though. Without it I would have had to recover the entire charge in order to replace the solenoid and it would have been a long day.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I'm a little worried they'll end up like the nordyne quick connects. In 10 to 15 years they start leaking..

[@rockercover]

The amount of work to change out a system to this level; is beyond words. (Wow).

This is the first time that I recall that you've brazed the way that I was taught, way back in high school. Specifically, applying the silver solder on the side of the pipe that's *away* from the flame. It's supposed to draw the solder from the 'cold' side to the hot side, forming a better seal (using less solder?).

[@natepeterson7145]

Great job on the install Chris and family! Probably the best designed system in the world.

[@richardbartlett6932]

[@richardbartlett6932]

@@David_Poole Brand hater? hmm I was a senior Carrier commissioning engineer in UK during my time so tell me an inverter with a TEV not an EEV and that's a top brand or a cost cutting cheapskate? But yes the 'best' design would spec the best brand. Nor would over extended flexiduct be used either. That's designing in losses.

[@David_Poole]

@@richardbartlett6932 your first comment said nothing about use of a TEV VS EEV. You stated that the best designed system wouldn't have used Carrier. A bit of a goal post shift there wouldn't you say? Now you're adding in complaints about how the flex duct was used. Adding more context to your original post may have cleared up some things. What doesn't make sense to me is your simultaneously bragging you were a senior engineer, and claiming that they aren't the best product. Were you unable to design the best product? I would imagine all companies make cost cutting measures. To be fair, Carrier is not my first choice either. That doesn't take away how much I appreciate this install. You seem busy trying to find everything you don't like about it, instead of focusing on the plethora of things you could love about it. Sad way to think if you ask me. I have a strong feeling it's a much better install than you have in your own home? Do you do the same thing with your own work?

[@EverythingisFire]

Very impressive, Chris!

[@mattwoodbridge7924]

This was an excellent video, an amazing install. You did a great install.

[@julesc.9449]

Chris, I'd argue that flex duct is better than rigid for branch ducts in homes. Rigid duct allow the fan sound to echo all the way yhrough the ductwork causing more noise at the diffuser. The flexibility of the flex's inner liner dampens those sounds. For main ducts, than yes, rigid is the way to go to drop static pressure. In your situation, the supply plenum acts as your main trunk. The static pressure and low noise speaks for itself! Amazing work!

[@maxpower8225]

Super professional installation 👌

[@thesilentonevictor]

Top notch installation Chris your old system like clean lol

[@burningdust]

She’s a beaut Chris.. seriously, what an awesome install and what great content the whole series has been. I’ve been watching your stuff for years and this IMO is by far the best yet! You’re earning your installation stripes, residential is always a challenge with all the minor finishing involved. The ONLY thing I’m having a little trouble looking past is that AC panel of yours. Good grief man, a congested outdoor setup? Being a Canadian electrician I’m not familiar with cali rules but I’d 100% move that sucker to the other side of the wall, inside the garage; Install a 225A SquareD NQ42 with whole home surge suppressor. A nice hefty panel with all the space you need to do things right. Main S/O & meter combo where the old one was. Just sayin’

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

I plan on upgrading it in the future and putting a bigger panel in for sure, maybe even solar with whole house battery backup…….

[@tschuuuls486]

@@HVACRVIDEOS I mean in Cali you probably can cool and heat your house on solar panels for basically free. Especially with an inverter system that usually hovers at a low power draw, rather than kicking in and out with high draws. And solar panel prices are falling drastically. A 435W panel is about 100€/$105 in Europe currently. And in America you can sometimes still get net metering. Not happening in Germany lol.

If you want an HVAC system at your house that's the best possible cooling system period, look into plasmoids/sacred geometry. There's a 90% chance it's a turbo-encabulator, but word on the street is it works and can give you near-cryogenic air coming out a Honda generator using basic parts.

[@digitalcircuit]

I greatly appreciate the amount of detail you're sharing, conveying just how much goes into doing this right, by the book when you have the time. Even though I'm not an HVAC technician and I stay in my lane (e.g. I can swap a contactor and wash a condenser, but no touching refrigerant, etc), I'm still fascinated with the process. Learning is awesome, and this is like getting to watch over your shoulder, but without feeling awkward about asking if it's okay and possibly accidentally getting in the way. I look forward to the next parts in this series!

[@novaorbitdragon]

At work we have two sterling heaters in the shop. They were installed 2 years ago, only use once a year of course. Going on the 3rd cold season, the heaters fired up but soon shut off. Error code on the overtemp limits/fans not working. No voltage going to the contactor when the control relay on the board clicks. Fans work by depressing the contactor. No signal for the contactor. The gas ignites and flows through the heat exchanger just fine. No blow back. It makes me believe the control board went bad from a storm we had two months ago. Storm knocked out the starting components on 3 refrigerators and blower motors in the office ac. Lost a leg of 120 making the 120v circuits wacky. More like 70v or less enough to energize but not enough to rotate. Just sitting there getting hot. Messed up the waterjet we had too. Thinking its been a issue since but just now coming across it. Same symptoms on two units at the exact same time. One thing i haven't checked was the draft sensor, think that would have any part in turning the fans on? I know I'm not a HVAC technician but i do enjoy the trouble shooting and hands on part. Funny enough, I'm the shop supervisor, welder fabricator, and maintenance at the same time.

I'm very interested to know that the job you did at your home what it would have cost a customer for your business. I understand you normally don't do home systems but me as a new home buyer I'm curious what it would cost if you came out and did everything perfect.

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

If I sold this to a customer it would easily be 50k but I went over the top on my install and obsessed about silly details

[@richardbartlett6932]

Return air vents in the doors or above if preferred into the hallway seems the best way to return air but you're more than aware of that I'm sure. . C/W a heat recovery unit directly into the indoor unit cupboard or again into the hallway to provide semi conditioned fresh air. Strange that the Carrier system seems a mix of old and new tech. inverter + a TEV is a stupid way to control refrigerant and duty. Have they not learnt anything from the Japanese. Jeepers Carrier were badge engineering Toshiba splits with EEVs back in the 80's ! Personally I would have pumped the outdoor unit down and removed it. Then I could have carried on fitting the new saving down dime and reclaimed either whilst that was happening or another day before disposal. Either way a high quality install as usual. I'm sure your electricity bill will come down quite a large % enough for payback as a result

[@acohn]

I'm curious about your first thoughts on the homeowner-facing side of the thermostat and the mobile app. I have a Bryant Evolution system (same system, different logo on the front), and was somewhat disappointed by some of Carrier's design decisions. The thermostat only supports four different setpoint "activities": wake, home, sleep, and away, which I found limiting. The builtin energy usage tracking is extremely rudimentary - I wish it gave me a day-by-day graph! (Maybe I should install an energy monitoring system like yours.)

[@DelticEngine]

I love what you've done with this project, Chris. I really like the commercial input to a domestic project, it looks awesome! I always watch to the end of your videos because the 'epilogue' you put at the end is also very informative and helpful. If I have one criticism, it's that I wish you were more 'nerdy' with the videos. Something I really like to know is part and model numbers of equipment and tools, etc. I can then go and look up the rest of the details myself and learn more about stuff. Then being able to bring the information gleaned from this research back to something real in a video really brings the whole experience to life and makes it real. It would be so much more inspirational. One way to achieve this would be a shot of a specification plate long enough to be able to pause the video, make a note and then resume. I have paused quite a few videos to read the information and even use my phone to read a QR code on something in the video to find out more about it.

Two comments, why silver solder the connection at the condenser and then press the connections a few feet way. Why not solder all connections? Second, I stopped using internal insulation on the ducts as the fibers continue to come off with the air pressure and flow. I now use only external insulation. Otherwise, great installation. Thanks for the video.

[@nessnesu6202]

Recommend to install a tall vent pipe higher than drain pan on Ptrap. Don’t want water pouring onto platform if clog happens. Also for carrier you can flip top left plastic drain port horizontal appliplaction cap around to prevent it from falling into air handler.

[@AARONJL92]

Another great video. Keeps me motivated to do better on my installs. QUESTION. What are your thoughts on using a plenum box like you have vs using a square to round then round to supply duct with the flex tapping into that. Like Joey Henderson suggests. THANKS! 28:14

[@Kangenpower7]

Great looking install! But no back up heater? I guess if you live in Texas, it is not required. At 23 minutes into the video, I would have put plumbers tape on the air duct, and secured it in the attic, to hold up the ductwork. Strong wife! Great job there. I live in Portland Oregon, and it gets to 20F on rare winter nights here, and I also do not have a back up heater connected. (I used my 1994 20 KW electric furnace as a air handler, and installed a 5 ton indoor coil on top of it (would not fit inside). So I get cold air during each defrost. With my 14 SEER single speed Goodman heat pump, it goes into defrost every 60 minutes for about 3-5 minutes. It is 4 tons capacity, and I sized it that large because I wanted to have 30,000 BTU's at 20F outside (that is what a 48,000 BTU unit puts out at 20F). I have 1,800 square feet, well insulated 1994 home with dual pane glass. No I never did a heat load calculation. You mention 1,000 CFM, and that is the correct airflow for 30,000 BTU unit. If you only have 24,000 BTU unit, then slowing it to 800 CFM is the right thing to do. But if you have 36,000 BTU's then you should be speeding up the fan speed a bit, or the high pressure can get really high when it is about 55F or a little warmer outside, and the unit is making a lot of heat. (wait you have variable speed, so that will not happen). The indoor coil looks like about 36,000 BTU's - that is massive aluminum tubing. Mine is old fashion all copper indoor coil and outdoor coil. Back when I installed HVAC units, I never put in couplings in the attic, we would always buy a 50 foot long lineset, and only solder two joints outside, two inside coil. Liquid line dryer next to the outdoor coil. Before 1993, we never recovered refrigerant. It was not a requirement yet! I was trained in 1984 at UTI. 40 years later, best decision ever! I graduated at 18, and was making decent money by 19. Was able to buy my house at 21. So what size is your unit? Seems like a very high SEER unit too.

Regarding marked tape: EVERYTHING that has UL Approval, has to have it. Everything that has to have it, the inspector is gonna look for those marks.* (i.e., not everyone is using mastic). Nobody--but nobody--is going to trust that the tape is the same as the one on the spool--even if the spool is marked. This is why electrical tape is discouraged in commercial / industrial, because there's no marking on the tape itself. *This is also why electrical wire is marked.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

It definitely won't pass code if the tape isn't marked. But he probably doesn't have to get an inspection. Home owner.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I think it's more efficient to have an air conditioner insulated attic, when the ductworth is in the attic..

[@achannelwithnopurpose1977]

Not sure how I feel about all the intelligent control boards/systems. Gives things more ways to break, and that’s not good for something that you really wouldn’t want to have break on you. Still a cool install though. It’s nice to be able to do things your own way and experiment with stuff that customers just wouldn’t get.
