You are certainly one of the good guys. I know some people that say "I am not payed for that, so I don't touch that". Let's use that three phase switch for example: These people would never have touched it, because it worked when you got there. You are a service technician who knows his business and the eventual pits customers can fall in. Every customer of yours can be lucky to have you as a technician.

So true. It's ridiculous how fobbed off a business will get (especially the place I work). They pay so much money in callout fees and repairs, and they'll be called out maybe every 3 or so months it seems! I know that the repair budget (which goes to this type of thing for my workplace) is however much a month, but they've already spent £7000 just from the start of the year to mid-Feb. Crazy.

On the coldest day in the winter, that unit fails and I am up in the snow and cold fixing the thing. I took no pity on those customers.

My friends new house has 6 zones and 3 different systems with dampers and sensors n stuff. at one time the phone line went to the hvac system. If you dont enter in dtmf pass it went to the alarm. Which could also control the hvac. Concrete and cinder 3 story home, they started to cut and pull the old alarm system and phone and took down hvac. If it was "telephone looking wire" they cut and pulled it. I got everything open and some cheap thermostats that's working the fans and furnace right now on the bottom floor. Heat rises :) I'm hoping some ESP32 chips with a raspberry pi3 I can DIY a modern setup. I've only watched about 4 of your videos, but this was the first I seen the economizer explained.

Good job in diagnosing a bad 3-phase switch. I'm sure a lot of techs would of just replaced the motor first, then replace parts back from there back to the starter or contactor all at the customer's expense! I deal with a lot of 3-phase motors but typically 50-100 HP ones and there is a procedure for testing and it's not really that hard to properly diagnose whether it's the motor, the wiring, the starter or what triggers the starter coil, but far too often people just don't understand how it all works and just start replacing parts. Anyways props to you for doing a good job diagnosing the issues!

Matt,my comment is LONG and it may have you scratching your head but here is my comment. Matt......you are one smart guy. I am 58 ,started this trade when I was 26. I had no schooling and started as a "Duct Cleaner" . Back then I dont think we had portable vac systems like they have today. I had the Pringle Vac truck with a power take off. It pulled 13,000 Cfm's. ANYWAY.....I worked as a HVAC helper,/ apprentice in the Spring and Summer. I slowly worked my way up,gaining knowledge to the point I was installing on my own. The service came a little later. I worked for my boss for approximately 11 years and then he became terminally ill. I had absolutely NO experience in running this company. But I did it because his family did not know who else they could of relied on to keep the company going. While he was sick,he tried to go over as much as he could so I could keep his business going. Well,he died. I had 2 choices. Keep running the company that was overwhelming for me cuz of the lack of knowledge, or Walk away,and work for someone else. Because I loved my boss and his family I felt I had to do this. So I did. I ran his business for his family the best I could. I made mistakes ,but over the following 2 years I learned alot because I had no choice. This family was counting on me. My bosses wife had a good paying career and really did not need the revenue from.her husbands hvac co. After 2.5 years, I was tired of running this company like I was the owner and either wanted to move on,or offer her money to buy the business. It took awhile for things to materialize but she finally excepted my offer for the business and I bought it. That was well over 30 years ago. After having the company for 8 years,I DID NOT want to work for myself anymore. My father came down with terminal brain cancer. Well before he got real sick,I would have to not work days so I could take him to his Dr's Appointments, which were in Center City Philadelphia. This wore me out and by the time he died, I DID NOT want to own my business anymore. I let the company devolve, and started working for other contractors. The guy I work for now ,I have been working for him for over 8 years. No refrigeration but commercial HVAC. Anyway, I am making my comments because .I have alot of years under my belt but my knowledge is laughable compared to what you know. Matt,you are ANAL,but you are DAMN great at our field. I wish I was 1/4 as knowledge as you. I have only been following you for a few months but DAMN........you inspire me to work smarter,more efficiently ,and like you always says. Look at the big picture. Do not assume ! Anyway,thank you for the time you put into your video's. One more thing. You need to have artist draw a cartoonist Charactiture of you and make T-shirts with your caption saying " Thats interesting ". I notice you say that alot when things don't either add up on a call, or a piece of equipment is doing something thats not normal. Anyway,take care,Howard

Mr. Sunshines, in the industry, we say a 3 phase motor is "single phasing" when its only getting 2 of the 3 phases. Clearly this is a 3 phase motor trying to start on only 2 phases which is why the pulley is alternating direction and trying to start when power is applied. Once he takes out the faulty switch, we have 3 phase again and motor works fine.

Unfortunately that is how Accounting 101 works. Maint comes out of one budget, replacement parts and units come out of a different budget. Top (mis)Management sends down an edict to save maint costs this quarter. They end up spending 5 times that much on replacement equipment next quarter. But the year-end bottom line looks wonderful and makes the Annalists happy, and the Maint Manager gets a year-end bonus of $50K for saving the company 7% on the quarter's budget.

On install of jade’s controllers I found the setting for aggressiveness waits one hour before calling for mechanical cooling. So crazy!

Filters date 7/14/2109 !!! You really went to the rescue of those compressors. As technology goes on internet based wet bulb set point integration will be the best solution on those economizers.

your 100% right on that motor situation, they no longer make the short motor due to they were not efficient enough. ran into this once at a hospital, ended up replacing the whole exhaust fan.

The motor could be sent out for a rebuild at a motor shop. The cost would be less than a new motor (if it was still available) and would be just as reliable. I have had motors rebuilt and they look and run like new, because they are.

Chris appears to be honest enough to take that chance considering that is one of his long-standing accounts. Considering Covid, some businesses are bleeding money trying to avoid Chapter 11 and keeping their staff working to support their families.

You can lower the set point on the mix to get ac to come on in a pinch or if the part is not in stock.

On the west coast we have to recommend dehumidifier options! Try to convince a customer that a.c. is not their problem! I have convinced one customer so far and they are the most successful in the area and refuses to tell others. What we did!

Dual enthalpy economizer controls are a must have here in New England. Restaurants are the worst when it comes to maintenance contracts and paying bills. Lots of shady restaurant owners. Typical sign of single phasing is when the motor rocks back and forth. I like to brush the crud off the exhaust fan motors too. They need to breath to stay cool. My favorite saying when customers don’t renew a maintenance contract: Pay me now or pay me later.

You have the most understanding customers.. it I had a no cool on xyz equipment but then started messing with other none related items like exhaust fans and reefer rack they’d be questioning me hard. Even if I was doing the right thing. Customer trust is hard to find anymore thanks to guys screwing them over.
