LEAKING coil on a Trane package unit.

[@tc7922]

I can honestly say… I have been scared I would trash my vacuum pump if I cleaned any outdoor while under vacuum…👍🏻😎. You are a brave man…thanks for showing me it is possible.

[@vincentgelles3805]

I’m really impressed with the attention to detail you take when cleaning those units. It’s very obvious that you take a lot of pride in your work and it shows! Watching how you do things makes me realize I need to step my game up on my maintenances. I don’t really enjoy doing them, would rather run calls or swap out equipment, but I still do a good job. But I’m definitely not using a brush and scrubbing down the units and with that particular Trane package unit, I don’t think I’ve ever cleaned all the leaves out of the top under the condenser fan. I do clean the coil but you’re going above and beyond and that’s exactly how I want to work as well. You have inspired me to start going the extra mile on my maintenances! Even though it’s not my favorite thing, I owe it to my customers to go above and beyond what other companies are doing and always give 110 percent!

[@vincentgelles3805]

👍. Great work as always!

[@chadbittle8489]

👍🏼Love the videos. I am a young tech that just graduated college. I spend all of my free time finding ways to better my skills and I enjoy watching your videos, makes me want to start my own company someday.

If you ask the home owner for some hot water and fill a 5 gallon bucket half way then put your tank in it while your doing pressure and vacuum you'll have no trouble putting in the full amount of refrigerant the unit needs. 👍

[@Toni-ght]

Or you just buy an electric heatbelt ;) Cheaper and no water everywhere. Very efficient when you do recovery and when you’re charging ;)

[@lucianoandsonshvac]

​@@Toni-ght Not sure about cheaper 😅 But sounds nice for recovery. 👍

[@jhatfield2755]

I just add fresh refrigerant weighed in

[@T_cole_g]

Or you don’t need to buy anything and just use your recovery machine to push it in

[@lucianoandsonshvac]

@@T_cole_g never heard of that. Guess the condenser coil becomes the tank and the refrigerant tank becomes the condenser needing to be recovered. 🧐

👍. That infi-con scale has a Very nice Display ! 😉😉 Very easy to read. i'm going to have to look into the price of that scale. a Tip For You -- to make un-sweating a Joint easier when replacing a component with extra tubing hanging out. 1) Just Snip out the Part with Side cutters a few inches from your un-sweat joint. that way You can remove the Part & Get it out of your way to just pull on a just a Few inches of copper rather than pulling on an entire component. 2) spread a little white brazing flux on the joint BEFORE un-sweating the joint. it thins the silfoss and makes it run easier & also cleans the Joint for re-assembly. Worth its weight in gold trick. Well worth the time. 43 years of sweating joints here.

[@OcRefrig]

Great video !

[@kalebmedina135]

👍🏽when I first started doing HVAC 3 years ago I started watching your channel and have learned a lot from you and for that I thank you!

[@tomraines7398]

unfortunate that manufacturers can't seem to solve the leak problems in coils, but you handled it well 😀

[@divineproblems3864]

I am almost done with school, finish this month. Ive watched your videos the whole time and it feels good getting a better understanding of what you're doing. 👍

[@felipegarcia9614]

👍 Hey man I'm 22 and love your videos. They have definitely helped me become a better tech, I am looking forward to owning my own business in the future but I still have a lot to learn. Thanks for these videos!

[@edwardadkinson2965]

👍!!! My name is Edward Adkinson. I really enjoy the informative videos that you show. There is a great deal of professionalism and your quality of work. That goes a long way. Keep up the good work!

[@gregmiller1844]

I like the old Trane spine fin condenser coils. They seem to hold up good. Micro channel is a different story>👍Good job on the repair.

[@lucianoandsonshvac]

Love the content. Very professional, organized and clean work.

[@DustinWright-r9l]

Every time I watch your videos I want to buy more tools😂 love the channel brother, keep up the great work!🤘🏻

[@lggsimpleguy]

👍🏽 just got into HVAC not to long ago in school and tell my instructors all the time about your videos

[@blahblahdaniblahblah]

👍 started doing residential HVAC about 10 months ago. I work in Arizona and the heat and humidity this summer has been brutal, but I'm powering through it and learning every day

[@richlikeg3722]

Thanks for the tip about unbraiding a joint. You make it so easy. 👍

[@jerrodbradick6851]

Thanks for all the hard work you do for your clientele and your KZbin viewers. We appreciate you and what you contribute to the trade!

[@joelvistorres4496]

👍🏼 Another clean and professional quality job... keep them coming 👍🏼

[@cdubs1723]

Saw you at Buc-ee’s today in Athens!!! I was star struck! Didn’t want to interrupt you and your family.

[@tonyalvarengagarcia3801]

👍👍 To be honest, I don’t know how you manage to do such a good job every single time. Very well done

[@cristianGarcia-dp6ud]

Grate video man, I've been a technician ever since I got out of the military and I've learned a lot from your videos. Keep up the good work 👍

[@michaelmcewan5074]

👍 Nice work! I agree these micro channel coils are a problem. I find a bunch of them leaking as well.

[@akeemjones2429]

Thinking about getting into the trades myself been following my father in law around on jobs to learn the ropes 👍🏿

[@jaredscrews5974]

Just got into residential HVAC back in January and not only have I learned a TON about the business and troubleshooting but also staying organized. Will continue to support you for a long time to come. Take care and stay cool!

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I got into residential HVAC in 1988, get out now and get into industrial. You'll never make great money in this field without working extremely hard 24/7. You'll be like this guy, making KZbin videos in hope you'll make some more money. I own rentals too or there's no way I could live relatively comfortably.

[@timothyabolaji7998]

That was an excellent job sir. I do love your smooth welding work. We often look for an alternative since the tools are extremely expensive or not available.👍

[@johnwrich2876]

You have the skills to pay the bills. Love watching your videos. Keep up the awesome work.

[@timothylamont601]

I watch you all the time to help become a better tech myself! Love the videos and how you explain what you’re doing!

[@HicksOutdoor]

Started HVACR a few months ago, and it changed my life. These videos have been my savior. I've learned so much from you. Keep doing what you're doing, man! 👍 💯

[@TheAngelAF]

Great job as always, you make HVAC look easy and enjoyable at the same time. I’ve been watching for about a year and you always have quality content and quality work!

[@devongauthier828]

Hey Zack I’m in the hvac industry as well, up in Manitoba Canada want too say your doing some good things very thorough procedures I like your style keep up the good work buddy!

[@HVACRMICHAEL]

Hey man, a tip I learned in union HVAC school: Use a heat gun or tank heater after vaccum and you’ll never have to dump liquid in the suction line after evacuation ever again.

[@AaronPowellvox]

👍 The way you do every detail reminds me of me. Great way to represent our industry!

[@jakehampton5346]

Currently going through a trade school in TX for HVACR, and watching your videos keeps me motivated and encouraged to get through. Keep up the good work man!👍

[@DavidHernandez-gt9bo]

👍 no apprentice anymore ? One man show ! As always great videos .

[@USAmerican1357]

Good video did the same repair yesterday 👍🏻

[@royreynolds108]

I have a question. How long has Trane, Inc been making and selling the package units? I retired from the Tyler, TX condenser unit plant in 2013 and we were not making package units then at that plant and I had not heard of them either. I started at compressor lay-in in 1995. I brazed for about 14 years. I was a line repair on all 5 lines at one time or another. I was coil-to-unit brazer on lines A, B, and 5. I was an Auditor on all lines and Central Braze but Line 1. That scroll compressor was made at the Natchitoches, LA plant. A black scroll compressor is a L/G. The reciprocating compressors are made in Monterrey, Mexico after 1998. A suggestion on brazing joints: try to get the larger tube hot and feed the alloy on the side away from the flame, as the alloy melts it will travel to the heat. We used 2-tip torches in the plant. I have only worked on the condenser coils at Trane. I worked for a few months in 1998 at AAON in Longview, TX on the traditional fin and tube flat coils.

[@lanefagan2714]
