Beautiful job Chuck. I watched all three parts, really enjoyed!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Jon M. HVAC Thanks Jon!

[@WaterBanana17]

I just subscribed to your channel thanks to the recommendation from John Israel and I must say for you to get that coil and then the heater up into the attic all by yourself was pretty DAMN IMPRESSIVE!!! I was honestly doubting you at first but I was proven wrong! Love your videos and work as well as John's - y'all are very professional - keep em comin'!!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

Thanks Matt. About one minute in on lifting that furnace I was beginning to doubt me too lol

[@aircooledtx]

Need one of those hoist from Harbor frieght

[@jhhvacplumbing1944]

simply beautiful Chuck and amazing getting that job done all by yourself.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

Thanks Justin!

[@ggleisberg]

Ah, the challenges of being a one-man show. Patience is certainly a virtue. I never rush or put time restrictions on a job so I share the "how many days does it take to install a small furnace" with you! Lol Great job, looks great keep it up!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Gary Gleisberg Thanks. I like not having to stress about it. I usually get the equipment prices correct. The labor is my major unknown but because I work for myself it doesn't matter much. Just work until its done lol.

[@richardfossani6421]

nice job chuck, I could tell you take allot of pride in your work.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Richard Fossani Thanks Richard!

[@BBoyGi0]

Super clean install. Awesome insight chuck.

[@davidharmon8745]

Great job Chuck .

[@sergioherrera5598]

very clean work and a lot of work.awesome

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

Thank you!

[@countryfriedhvac]

Bubba, you put in some good work. If I had to pay a guy to install my system it’d be you.

[@johnisraelhvac2019]

Beautiful Installation as always Chuck!!! Great video!!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Israelhvac Thanks John. I love this stuff lol.

[@HVACUncensored]

Hell of a job Chuck! It's looks awesome all finished. That was a lot of work for one man. I think you earned yourself a whole pizza for that job. Lol

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Gil Cavey Jr Thanks. And I always eat the whole pizza lol.

[@jamescecil4629]

No smart ellic comments coming from me ...im afraid of this guy...actually i have a question ...how would I install a water to air heat exchanger powered by my outdoor wood boiler on this unit ....come in from the side of the plentum on the side with entry tubes horizontal or come in from the top with the tubes vertical

[@joeshearer1247]

Final product looks great. I love the pump up installation device I will be using that one for sure. You should start checking the flue draft on your systems too. I know like we need one other thing to do.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Joe Shearer Yes, If it were going into a chimney or some place I couldn't see I would have drilled the B-Vent. Because it was four pieces and I had it completely apart and inspected it I felt okay with it. LOL it had no choice but to draft! Thanks for watching man!

[@joeshearer1247]

+ComfortPlus Heating and Cooling it looked like it ran horizontal without much vertical, But with such a small furnace it probably was still negative but I bet it was barely negative. I'm not trying to sound like I know it all about combustion and venting because there is a lot left for me to learn.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Joe Shearer First time I go for service I'll check it and post. The lateral slope is greater than 1/4" per foot. The vertical did need to be 1' taller to meet the 5' min height but the old furnace had performed great for more than 20 years lol.

[@aircooledtx]

Very nice install, ComfortPlus.

[@mfreisem7]

Foam tape is a great tip thanks. Great work

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+mark freisem I love that stuff. Except when it sticks to something you didn't mean for it to lol. Thanks for watching!

[@harrydickson4575]

fantastic Job Chuck And Video !!!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Harry Dickson Thanks Harry!

[@SteveSam66]

Nice work Chuck

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+S Sam Thank you!

[@abcdmfp2]

I've been installing HVAC for 30 years in Arizona. I really enjoyed watching your videos today. I learned how to wire a disconnect the other day. I'm going to be a great Service Tech one day.. :D

[@mcroley591]

Nice job! I'm a one man shop over in eastern nc. Take care.

[@Zacksshoptalk]

awesome work Chuck!

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+talyn875 Thanks Zack!

[@MindyPYo]

This is very helpful! I mean... I am trying to purchase a property that has a furnace located in an attic. However, it only has heating and it's been used for more than 20 years. I was wondering how it can be replaced and things like that. It's really hard work by looking at the videos. Hopefully, I will be able to find a good contractor to deal with the furnace and central system!

[@WilliamJoseph2015]

Nicely documented video a and install. Why did you take out the blower motor. To lighten the load lifting it?

[@carlosraxon8559]

awesome job chuck another of my favorite hvac tech talk about it is mister Zack from talyn875 he says you are the man chuck thanks for sharing your videos

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Carlos Raxon Thanks for watching! +talyn875 is a great guy!

[@carlosraxon8559]

It's pleasure to watching your videos chuck

[@bklynwam]

Great install with all the details. I must say you proved yourself a one man show in other videos as well but this was impressive. I am going to have my ac changed during the next quarter and our contractor is recommending plastic secondary drain instead galvanized. Any from your end. We are in New York. Will it handle the temperatures fluctuations during summer and winter?

[@MrTrailerman2]

another job well done.

[@integrity5264]

Even though the video is 6yrs old I like the way you tested all systems before you walked away. Question: what appt did you use to clock the gas meter? Thanks

[@eddiehvac]

Nic job. Just got finish watching all 3 vids. Your jobs are very clean. I see that it is a lot of wrk for one guy but worth it. I do plan to go on my own soon. Would like to talk to someone like u if I need advice. Thanks.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+eddiehvac Anytime brother. Thanks for watching!

[@StephenRardon]

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+ricky kellam thanks for watching!

[@mrlevelle]

Great work bud trust me you don't want to keep lifting those into the attics bye yourself I was doing the same thing and blew out 2 disc's in my back and now I am always in pain

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+c levelle Thanks. I will have to start getting some help on those. I'm an old man now lol.

[@howardharmon3451]

Did you have to make a special drip pan for that A coil?

[@baylifehvac991]

good job. who makes air ease never seen that brand.

[@jonhvac]

+Pierre Ruff The Lennox company

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Pierre Ruff Thanks Pierre! Like Jon said its a Lennox Brand. Lennox sells direct to larger dealers, smaller guys like myself buy AirEase or Armstrong through a distributor.

[@eugenekaiser2617]

where did you get the app for gas meter. l think thats cool. I order the parts I talk to you about (metering vavle) when I got it I couldn't screw them together ,here one side was right hand threads, and one was left hand threads, had to reorder the part. many thanks for the help I hope to get it back together soon. it took 8 supply houses be for someone would order parts. everyone said put a new one in.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+EUGENE KAISER Hope you find both parts soon! The gas meter clock I was using is in the iManifold app. The app is very useful even if you don't own an iConnect or iManifold.

[@eugenekaiser2617]

Thanks

[@lennykey]

Very nice looking job Chuck. Was the emergency drain pan fitting capped or did you run a drain out?

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

I glue a cap in all mine. I want the homeowner to know that there's water in it when the pan switch kills the ac. Hopefully the line switch would catch it first and not get the insulation in the unit wet. I installed the capped fitting from inside the pan.

[@jamielewis6167]

Great job, Chuck. It has to tough being a one man show. I guess I will find out soon enough.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Jamie Lewis But it's great being your own boss! Thanks for watching!

[@WellsLarry]

Excellent!

[@awsom70]

nice work keep it up

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+awsom70 Thanks!

[@deloct]

Thanks for sharing! great job. What app you use to clock the gas meter. Thanks again.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+Octavio Delgado it's included in the iManifold app. Free in the app stores. Thanks for watching!

[@jamesholder5725]

Those air ease furnaces are just Armstrong right? Different label.

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

+james holder Yes They get their label before they ship lol.

[@medranofamilytx]

What does something like this cost, more or less, if you dont mind me asking? Including opening the access wider. Thanks!

[@acostilla78]

Sr you need a helper As soon as possible good Job by the way!!

[@my93vr4]

why not use drop cloth so as not to get customers hardwood floor scratch up with that furnace? I always use a drop cloth

[@jamesholder5725]

Do you have good luck with them?

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

Yes. I usually use the 93 percent ones. This was subject to freezing temps so I went with the 80.

[@67tr876]

no drop cloth dude ?

[@ComfortPlusHeatingandCooling]

Nope. Put down cardboard for the demo. Rest of job I just sweep a lot. Thanks for watching.

[@maxeyac]

Man I sure hope you made alot of money on this job. lmao!

[@robvelas2280]

No plenum on the return? No ptrap on the condensate light? Main condensate line doesn’t terminate properly?

[@utubepro7742]

Better off doing yourself sometimes helper are just extra aggression
