SHOCKING DANGERS HVAC TECHS FIND DOING INSTALLS

[@AB_HVAC]

Nah 😂 that disconnect is WILD

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@AB_HVAC horrible

[@brianporter4352]

As Mikey Pipes says "hacks bring me stack"! That install is insane, but probably not the worst you've seen either. Sad what the trade has become. Thanks for doing it right.

[@Paul-IE-Repairs]

having a trades license doesn't mean what it use to mean. its the near equivalent of a driver license.

[@tjhanlonjr]

Wow that's scary that man's building could have burned down.

[@KevinfinityDrums]

Those Daikin installers should be sued and stripped of any licenses they probably don't hold anyway.

[@Legitheatingandair]

Crazy

[@jkmarshall3553]

Yeah, can't strip what they ain't got. SMH!

[@tdobson888]

They do make outdoor flex gas line but that's not it but for that unit there is no reason to use it

[@Kirt_Mondragon]

WOW, That shit is crazy! Looks like the lowest bid won kind of job before. How the hell does the manager or owner not do anything about these units! He paid all that money, the least he can do is take care of them. Hopefully they hire you to maintenance them from now on.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@Kirt_Mondragon They are some wild boys who did this one.

[@LuisB9214]

Helper was dumbfounded when he saw the disconnect 😂😂

[@jmead6121]

O my Goodness thaT COIL mounted disconnect & hi voltage lines all exposed just when I thought i'd seen it all

[@motorcopT2]

Man im proud of these dudes. They are solid cats. Usually people say we Jerry rig stuff. I'd like to see who did that crap. 😂😂

[@Legitheatingandair]

😆

[@dus10dnd]

That is INSANE. Now, your response about mounting it on the unit... I think it is technically fine, I would practice never doing that because of other bad practices that may end up happening. But that has got to be the wildest garbage I have seen in HVAC.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@dus10dnd Yea, I wouldn't want to mount it on the unit unless I had no choice but it will not be on the fins of the condenser.😆

[@mictreful]

You do good work and know your stuff I`m up here in PA and retired and I have seen my share of nightmare fuel here

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@mictreful Thanks, I have my ups and downs but I'm always striving to do better. I appreciate your support.

[@jkmarshall3553]

Those old units were just wrong! Nice installs by Legit!!

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@jkmarshall3553 I appreciate that JK.

[@MrTotos2012]

Obviously the roofers!!

[@amirharris473]

Where's the Municipal Code Enforcement? Don't you have get a permit? 😂

[@Legitheatingandair]

Everyone dont play by the rules as you can see. They didn't get a permit pulled for that.

[@c21meister]

Those installs was some nasty work up there 🤧 that was crazy

[@timsimpson4579]

43 years and now retired from the HVAC industry. 15 years ago you never saw this but in the last 15 it’s on every penny pinching owners roof. These hacks just don’t care and when she lights up the night they care even less.

[@ironcross420]

Keeping fasteners from removed/trashed equipment? I would. Take a compressor power connector to test port/terminals for meter and supply power for diag. Use power probe work?

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@ironcross420 thanks

[@Paul-IE-Repairs]

Ive seen 208 3phase disconnected laying flat on their back, cover missing and full of water, and they had been that way for years! even the gfci curtesy plug was full of water

[@Legitheatingandair]

How do they get away with this?

[@edwardthomson7285]

It'll be alright

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@edwardthomson7285 yeah right

[@jes6885]

At times you sound like Steve Harvey 😂

[@scottspeir5561]

Seen stuff like that in Abilene breaker box laying in water on the roof. Everything on unit exposed.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@scottspeir5561 No Bueno!

[@ZAPATTUBE]

They Trashed that unit.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@ZAPATTUBE I just don't understand.

[@JoeKyser]

Mickey Mouse struck again

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@JoeKyser job security thats all😊

[@JoeKyser]

@Legitheatingandair very true

[@Z-Ack]

Looks like you need to get you a couple ladder winches and take off the cost of the crane delivery in your pockets..

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@Z-AckI don't want the added risk.

[@chris76-01]

Small cranes don't cost that much. It's usually reasonable for the amount of work they do.

[@raysulenski7687]

Nice unit installed by hacks

[@spaceboy7192]

I wouldn't be bragging about your new install....

[@Legitheatingandair]

@spaceboy7192 @spaceboy7192 😁 I'm comparing and sharing. Any reasonable person would choose our install over the other but if you want I'll send those guys your way if I find them. I don't think they will brag so they should meet your standard.

[@spaceboy7192]

I'm thinking you should delete your scrap yard clip. Clearly recovering the refrigerant is an option in Texas. BTW tie your boots, ur gonna trip

[@marcosgraells1820]

Paso un huracán??? No encuentro la manera

[@frankdiaz7571]

That was cheap cheap labor

[@Legitheatingandair]

@frankdiaz7571 I wonder how dangerous the high voltage will be when it rains.

[@mictreful]

Meatball Mechanics sloppy work ethic

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@mictreful 😁 hey least that got it running.

[@phoenixhvac-r828]

Why didn't you just push the unit of your trailer and you should aways remove the refrigerant before dumping it.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@phoenixhvac-r828 They were supposed to take care of it for us.

[@phoenixhvac-r828]

I did notice at the end of the video where " they " blew the refrigerant charge after dropping it, we are not a third world country, we all need to do a better job.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@phoenixhvac-r828 I just think the guy didn't know how to use the equipment properly to avoid the damage and you are right we can all strive to do better. The best we can do is to pay more attention to our flaws and correct them.

[@kevinharris8926]

Wht,the f

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@kevinharris8926 I know, tried to tell you. 😆

[@fred-qy4lo]

Is it ok to mount those disconnects on the fins?

[@Caribbeansurfbro]

Wheres the straps on your liquid tight? And the base that it sets on? Lol that would not pass code here.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@Caribbeansurfbro 😆 Why are you judging it based on codes there? We passed here.

[@phoenixhvac-r828]

You hardly ever see Permits being pulled on simple change outs, guess you don't have to worry about workmanship til property go up for sale.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@phoenixhvac-r828 Even if you install a used condenser you need a permit in Abilene, TX. That doesn't mean that everyone will pull one though.

[@moemoes5989]

Why didn't he simply grabbed the unit on 2 sides and left the whole unit up, was it too heavy for the machine to actually pick up?

[@Legitheatingandair]

@@moemoes5989 not sure if I'm following your question correctly.

[@KevinfinityDrums]

@@Legitheatingandair I think he meant the scrap guy on the excavator at the end. About f'd up your trailer and transmission!

[@Legitheatingandair]

@KevinfinityDrums Oh, yes he did damage the trailer.

[@Legitheatingandair]

@moemoes5989 I don't think he know what he was doing. He damaged the trailer aswell.
