That customers voice is amazing! Sounds just like an old 50's TV commercial narrator. Or some of the old school films.

[@danwittels5542]

"The motor doesn't sound that great" 😂😂😂 That's a good idea putting those fan direction wires in some pvc pipe. Multiple offender mamma! You can't stop a Goodman!

[@scotttiminey]

Steve, next time you need a 45+5 cap there's one in the front right side of your cap bin. See 5:06 mark in the video.

[@Phone-sh7jg]

Just write on each one with a sharpie so it sticks out better

Good job Steve.

[@land7776]

Well, my Goodman Heat Pump is still cooling and heating after 18 yrs, never a problem. I ordered it from an online co, and picked it up in York, Pa. I did install a hard start capacitor, added to the regular cap. That's what they recommended.

[@gods959]

Great video, thanks for sharing your knowledge 😄

[@prettycureforever7102]

[@chuckquinn8026]

Unfortunately the main reason seniors can’t hear is because Medicare doesn’t pay anything towards hearing aids, and if you need 2, you’re talking $6k out of pocket…most can’t afford that 😢😢😢

[@Samlol23_drrich]

I understand they make over-the-counter hearing aids now that are a small fraction of that price. A good way to ruin an industry is to have Medicare start to pay. Then they'll pay for only some brands and some providers. The government ruins everything they touch

[@rich-mp6dm]

They probably pay for Viagra.but not hearing aids

[@aland680]

I had no idea. Bet our politicians have hearing aid coverage that we the people cover for them

[@chuckquinn8026]

@@rich-mp6dm that’s absolutely true 🤷‍♂️

[@markadams5429]

That all depends on your Medicare plan. You can purchase a Medicare plan that covers hearing aids.

[@Jeff_Pendleton]

I see that oval capacitor in your collection you took off the other day when you replaced a fan. Would you use that somewhere?

[@rcald-gz5jd]

@@stevenlavimoniere Cool. Thanks for the swift response. I appreciate you sharing your day-to-day workflow with us.

[@picklerix6162]

Ruud/Rheem HVAC is good equipment. I have a Rheem water heater that has worked without issues for over 10 years but some late model Rheem water heaters have a defective thermostat. Steve has replaced a few of those.

[@agostinodibella9939]

I like how the four side covers on the Rheem / Ruud condensers come off with one screw a piece. It makes the fins so easy to clean. I use a shop vac first, then rinse off with the hose.

[@AllTattedUp13]

Anything but a carrier product, unless u like replacing super expensive parts 😂

Yeah Steve that motor was cooked. Sounded like a loose belt. I think my older brother has them all beat on marriages and divorces 5 times! Now his 3rd wife lives with him again? IDK WTH is the matter with him...

Steve how about some fireside stories about your experience with food and babes. Bet you got some good stories about crazy babe's on the east coast. You been single for 28 yrs, you must have met some really crazy ones.

Tech claims you can only run an old unit so long. My Rheem is 30 years old and ebay has new computers for it.

[@AllTattedUp13]

It's not the parts, it's the refrigerant/ freon that will do you in. Unless u wanna spend a $1000 filling a 30yr old unit😂

[@blackericdenice]

@@AllTattedUp13 I bought R134 from Walmart and used it last year.

[@OnusBones]

The stock Goodman fan in our system is 845RPM; when it dies, any harm in using a 1075 RPM motor (similar amp draw) ?

[@jimw7550]

The horsepower change ratio (HP1/HP2) is equal to the cube of the speed change ratio (n1/n2)3 so horsepower changes a lot relative to just a little speed change. (1075/845)**3 = 2.06. Double the power. Also, the increase in speed could cause the fan blade to fail and damage the coil. My neighbor had a fan blade shred his condenser coil.

[@user-su5ft8lc9q]

Never seen a goodman with a 875 rpm motor in it, unless someone messed up.

[@gregdemars2751]

That fan motor is ready to 💩 the bed. Gutter pipe should be moved, trip hazard waiting to happen

[@bearg4019]

Really why would you leave it on. It doesn't work turn it off..I would think everyone knows that..

[@Berzerk29]

Unfortunately, everyone doesn't know that. In my experience, people lower the temperature on the thermostat as if that will remedy the issue.

[@erlpen2016]

When I hear “filler” talk I get nervous…what does a conversation about old people have anything to do with anything…most likely there was not that much to do …in this case the one thing that went bad was the capacitor it shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes to change it…so charge one hour labor plus parts….
