Rheem Unit Failed 410a leak

[@sknight0391]

And by the way Ted... Heating & Air men have a rough life, they just sit outside and rust away. 😁👌

[@TedCookHVAC]

I know ....... crusty too.

[@bobgallo3775]

You're a good man, Ted. Nothing wrong with how you handled that.

[@sknight0391]

I like Ted's intros... JUST GET TO WORK! 😎👍😎👍😎👍

[@8vd523]

Or in an attic baking away, day by bloody day....

[@TedCookHVAC]

What is an intro ?

[@hgbugalou]

Good man for fixing the control wire. Most techs would just ignore it.

[@sanantoniotonight5569]

I love this channel, just found it. So enjoy watching a real pro work. Wish I had some Carolina bbq sir!

[@Ted_E_Bear]

Thanks Ted for looking at the big Picture !

[@toneale]

Doesn't matter the size of the house or wealth of the customer, you make sure they are cared for. Wish I didn't live 100 miles from your service area.

[@HVACGUY]

Gotta love that power chord right in front of the service panel.

[@JFranzen3]

Serviceability? Never heard of it.

[@vinceb90]

Had a Trane package unit. Rusted away in 8 years, and that’s in north MS. You won’t catch me buying a Trane unit. I like your videos though, hard to find someone who is thorough in their work now

[@mikegilpin8527]

Ted...I've been an avid watcher and subscriber. Thanks again for all the vids you have been putting out for years. I got out of the trade 4 yrs ago and it's great to see that there are still some seasoned techs out there that take the time and the effort to make things right. You and Steve Lav rock!!!

[@sziltner]

Long time since I have seen a driveway like that. 2 cement tracks. That must go back to the 20's or earlier.

[@Garth2011]

Good eye Ted. Nice repair and gas. I have to agree, those packaged units sure do put up with the elements. By design, I never liked the idea of them, on the ground or on the roof. Split systems make so much more sense if the structure will allow for them. Thanks to the landlord for getting a backup tech vs. tell the tenant "they can't come until the next day". That was sweet of him.

[@johnthreefifteen]

Thanks for going the extra mile and replacing the wire.

[@totallybonkers]

That poor line has fought a few weed eaters in it's day... 😂

[@rangepro]

DO THE RIGHT THING (FOR) THE RIGHT REASON!! .. WELL DONE!

[@myHVAClife]

Would have done it the same way in that situation, Just hope your buddy pulls that blower out real quick and checks the heat exchanger, 10 years is about time for a crack in one of those Rheem/Ruud package units, about the same as the Carriers. All that rust that happens at the bottom of those collector boxes is a shame. Rheem sux! Also give your buddy a class on installing a proper hood between the unit and the house, butting the unit right up against the side of the house is just plain sorry!

[@Suncast45]

Glad the wasps in the bottom of the unit didn't get angry! Good job sir!

[@davidharrison3173]

Recognize your wisdom as my OCD objects. Well communicated.

[@venvnco6259]

Rheem 4 yr old has a leaking coil. Last one went 22yrs. New ones are a rip off. Nothing buy junk.

[@chuckquinn8026]

Did I see Romex inside the flex conduit?

[@russellhancock9765]

I think they need to require thermostat wires to be put in some kind of pipe.

[@JFranzen3]

Good stuff as always Ted!

[@deanmartin1966]

Nice job. Bet they were happy to have air once again

[@Patmcc937]

Nice work Ted !

[@letslockit]

She had the thermostat on 96 degrees

[@stevecarpentieri2068]

Happy 60th birthday Ted. I hope you didn't celebrate on the roof of a church like last year.

[@tedsmith5058]

Hello from the great state of Michigan

[@fishyfool]

Funny that I can buy a bbq grill made of stainless for 200 bucks but a multi thousand dollar unit like that sits and rusts. Planned obsolescence.

[@williamserver4332]

Great job.

[@johnwalker890]

Good job Ted.

[@Eddy63]

Nice job ... Thx for sharing ...

[@dysfunctionalgamingveteran7753]

Ted's good deed for the day.

[@TheFoxygrandpa69]

Top it off and get onto the next one. Sometimes you gotta do just exactly that.

[@stephenbullock1443]

That thermostat wire seen better day's

[@tphvac87]

Why not dump the rest of the liquid from your gauges into the system?

[@Laguna28083]

Its a shame you're so far away, about 100 miles, would love for you to take a look at mine

[@TedCookHVAC]

What city ??

[@ItsTheCostanza]

🥶

[@ivancook1247]

Get them cool and get out , I watch all your videos, everything isn't in a perfect world

[@jbairinc.147]

Did you weigh in how many pounds you put in? For a proper price per pound?

[@ArmchairZsa]

I bet you couldn’t wait to post this one ! 😂

[@joshuaseaton4526]

Flat charging fee since you didn't weigh it out? Things are just starting to hop over here, pushing 100 the last 2 days. Back to around 80 the rest of the week, cheers!!!

[@Spiloli]

Do you weigh in every time you add?

[@SeanBaker]

I always wonder why those combo units look so terrible on the inside and not necessarily the outside.

[@111000100101001]

What they getting over your way for 25# of 410a?

[@stephwaylonwells3218]

👍

[@shupe1907]

barely a decade old and already signifigant leaking. nothing but quality there Rheem.

[@Demy26]

👍🏼

[@alannewsome1729]

She’s a leaker oh man she’s a leaker!

[@larrychristopher9147]

If it says Rheem, ya got a problem

[@PMC662]

That’s how you do it.

[@stephenhunter70]

Whilst your at it, where is the outside electrical isolator whilst your at too

[@Bighoss1886]

I’m not a a very smart guy but I would say that rodent may have gotten a spark so it moved up the line to see if the grass was greener lol 😂

[@professorhvac]

Gas and go)

[@shawnd567]

I get what you're saying but that's WAY over charged 160/360!? 150/350 would have been over and within the realm of reality.

[@goorioles1976]

Package units are so ugly. Dead after 11 years, lol. Don’t buy package units unless you are a business and can put them on the roof.

[@geicomatt]
