I love that you switched back to the old intro

My old install lead used to tell me “ I don’t want to ever see you going down or going up the stairs with an empty hands” And that stuck with me from then on. It’s true!!!!! It’s important to be efficient with your time.

[@Bryan-Hensley]

Every time I have to go to the van, I try to carry something with me that I am done using. I don't like making empty handed trips in either direction.

About to hit my one year as an HVAC tech mainly doing commercial install. Your videos have helped me on the service side immensely and made me more valuable. I’m finally starting to do more service now and am finding a passion for the trade. Thank you Chris

[@BM-zl7cj]

So dope man. In trade school right now learning the trade and its such a cool industry

[@demonknight7965]

I saw how funky n old looking that time clock was and said "yup he's replacing the clock.

[@FrNMGuy]

Even after the brightener, that condenser still had a hard time letting water through.....dang.

[@alext424]

Awesome video Chris! I’m learning more and more from you with each new video I watch. I start trade school for HVACR on Aug. 29th, so every new video you post helps me build on my knowledge. Thanks again Chris! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@HVACRVIDEOS]

That's awesome, good luck in trade school

[@tekjunkie28]

One thing I will point out is that defrost clock is coated in dust. Electronics will act weird and die from dust because it is electricallly conductive. It maybe a little risky brushing or blowing off the clocks with a lot of force but try to keep them clean. Great videos!

[@jfrancis98]

I love hearing how these videos are helping the new techs to the industry!! You’re always a good example of how we should be as techs. Thanks Chris!

[@halverde6373]

Tip a nitrogen tank can replace blowing a condenser out with air. Just be careful or you'll lay fins over worse than a pressure sprayer!

Greetings from southern Germany, I’ve started my apprenticeship in the HVACR field last September, Voit Videos are helping me to better understand it and just seeing a „field expert“ working is helping me out as well (sorry if my English might not be the best😅😅)

[@rafaelandreano]

I lived in Germany for 6 month’s it was an awesome experience. Greetings from Richmond VA

[@Craigcul]

Another great video yes the sacrifices that you make when you run you own company. Those time clocks always look funny to me the way they mount everything on an open PWB I would have thought that they would put them in a case to stop dust getting into them.

[@user-hj5le6lo9w]

Your mantra of looking at the big picture proved to be key in handling the situation once again. I share it with the guys I work with and tell them to watch your videos. Keep them coming! 👍🏼

[@jakepeoples9238]

I would have loved to see the back of that defrost clock... I see lots of broken/cold solder joints on the outputs of relays. Obviously I wouldn't solder it back if i had a replacement but I have done it in the past to get by.. 😉 Good job as always! You do an awesome job!

[@halverde6373]

Service tip* An air compressor just with air to blow condenser out should be first choice. Then air with stoddard solvent pickup tube, then water then chemicals when grease is involved. Triage.

[@lard379]

great vibes

[@volactic8495]

11:25 It's always funny when you turn something on and you hear a lound clang somewhere.

[@JerodRSN]

Rack systems are the BANE of my existence… there’s usually always an exhaust fan right next to the coil, the customer won’t let us install a stack on the exhaust so the coil is so impacted with grease it’s insane. Last week I had an emergency call for a WIF on a rack where I chemically cleaned the coil 5 times and it just wouldn’t get all that grease out. Head pressure was exceeding 400psi, so I had to recover like 2LBS of refrigerant just to get the box down to 10°F. Was there till 2am…. We had to go back the next day with the strongest cleaner we could find, that shit will burn your skin off man…

[@randyhamburger-jg5gr]

my old company had an account like this. brand new construction at a restaurant that i referred to as the grease box. the main exhaust is right next to their kitchen RTU and its literally 10 inches off the condenser coil. it cant even run in the summer, the microchannel gets plugged within a week. of course nothing was ever done to remedy the issue.

Nice video chris! Love ur videos! I learn alot from you from watching these videos, i want to be an HVAC Technician when I grow up! For now I draw these units that you work on!After some videos I went & researched some of the units in your videos! I even learned how to use measurequick from your videos! I also make videos on HVAC, just filming them! Sometimes I make model acs and I play like the unit is real & input info in the measurequick! That was compressor sounds like dirt, iam actually just 12

[@markseneca7510]

You had the patience to video on call you got more patience than me.good video

[@jamnben278]

The fans were off because it was stuck in defrost. Good find, I had issues with a Paragon not going into defrost the other day and the coil was icing over.....

[@MariosACandRefrigeration]

the fans were off because the evap is warm,defrost terminator,keeps them off.the problem was the high pressure switch,triping,due to dirty condenser coil.but the timer was wonky.

[@swampasssapper3643]

Can you plug the holes next to that time clock? Seems like a bunch of airflow going through them with dust bunny muck junk building up on the components there.

[@vicgewondjan647]

Great Video Chris! Overtime service calls are a challege but you had a great attitude looking for opportunities to help the customer. Sense of awareness!!

Somebody explain how a frozen evaporator coil will cause the sight glass to flash?

[@bwcnation]

Question I have is there a reason the cooler evaporators shut down the fans during defrost? Is it because of the style evaporators? My fans typically stay on but are fan forward evaps not downward like some of my old stores. Also was that clock as dirty when you replaced all the contactors? That one looked rough.
