There's plenty of places on this planet, that could use more women like her. Carefree, warm, enjoy's sharing and laughing etc. We need less nasty and hate.
That drives me nuts. I get distracted when the customer hovers around and talks nonstop. I try to listen to them but then I find myself forgetting to do something or missing a step. You're a good man Curtis. I used my coil gun yesterday and sure do like it. I'd better for what that thing cost!
Some of my favorite videos from Curtis have nature sounds - mostly bird calls, in his morning calls. The constantly barking dogs and beeping smoke detectors? Eh, not so much.
Awe...you made a new friend Curtis. Your customer relations and calm demeanor are probably appreciated. Properly removing and cleaning that evap coil should be a breeze. Good job as always!
be sure and service the blower motor and check the blower wheel. scroll compressors can handle liquid slugging, or it would already be dead. it does reduce cooling capacity.
Curtis, I can see raising the unit off the ground, but why do they attach a strap to the side of the house. The frame in a mobile home is not very structurally sound. If you are going to use the wire brush to clean coils, why not cut off the handle. It would be easier to get up into the coil.
This was one of the best videos. Your thought process was clear and very articulate. The best part was there is no dogs and no beeping smoke alarms but even better was the lady she was very entertaining I didn't understand a word she said but oh boy he needs some milk 🥛
I no HVAC guy but have learned a lot from you one thing I don’t understand is what are normal readings when you hook up the Bluetooth devices to the system ? What is the correct range ? Does it depend on the Different brands ?
I have a 24000 BTU inverter Split unit in Greece. Super quiet and efficient. My guy comes once a year and washes every thing, both inside and out. I can't believe how dirty they let them get.
That little lady is lonely bless her heart. There is a better style of brush for cleaning the A-Coil. It’s called a chipping hammer brush. It has only enough handle to hold the bristles. They can be purchased at a welding supply store in carbon steel and stainless. 4-7 bucks each. With that long handle in the way it’s hard to reach the center section of the coil.
A friends house has a similar problem. Or a compund of problems. Under sized return overall. Lack of returns, lack of size of the return. 20"x20" for a 3 ton. I think it needs a good bit of work. The previous owners blocked off one of the 4 returns even. Trying to get it to push up to the upstairs vaulted ceiling open office space.
Spray the evaporator with water use a bottle brush it rolls off in sheets, should have checked the evap after cleaning the condenser static pressure would have told you., Feildpeoce digital instruments looks like tech school equipped. 1/2 ton bigger coil is not a big deal your condenser fan might be slowing down your service information is incomplete like you know? , but what do I know! keep learning always more info.
I'm thinking the metering device may be too big. I found a 10 ton Trane commercial split system once with no metering device. Liquid line fed straight into TXV distributor. Killed the compressor, too.
Wow, I can't get a word in, lol. That thing was some dirty. You fixed that. I bet it cools like a new one now. Cleaning the evaporator will do it for sure. Nice job. My old unit is still limping along, try to get through another summer. The stop leak, knock on wood, worked. I was putting 3 to 4 lbs a year in it, and it has been over a year and I haven't had to add any. I know it's just a band - aid, but for now I'm still rocking. 19 year old Goodman 4 ton unit. I know I will have to embrace the inevitable.
Well, at least your visit gave one of her friends relief from a phone call they might not have answered. 😆 Forty-four? Girl, I hope you got quite a few more years to go before you gotta worry about hot flashes.
Curtis, Always a Great video! That lady... way too much talking! she gave me a headache! That evap. coil... I gave me a stomach ache! People must leave the windows open when the A/C is on. Never change the filter too. Thats going to cost them!
Curtis; Who did the ac maintenance in this house? Client: that would be my nephew thomas! Curtis; what year did his ac stop working? Client; about 2 yea..howd you know that?
Recover gas, clean evap, new drier, charge back up with virgin R410A. Those pressures were all over the place. Kinda looks like non-condensibles in the system.
Did you charge her extra for the therapy session? That may be the reason the unit was in such disrepair. The last guy couldn't put up with the chattering so did a half ass job..
That poor lady didn't have a word to say.😂❤👍😁
All I can say is “bless her little heart” 😂
let the lady guys, sometimes people dont have anyone to talk, shes a good heart
Kind of what I was thinking too wanted somebody to talk to
There's plenty of places on this planet, that could use more women like her. Carefree, warm, enjoy's sharing and laughing etc. We need less nasty and hate.
That lady needs to breath in between all her words lol she never stops 😅
The woman reminds me of my dearly departed momma. She never knew a stranger and could carry on a conversation with anyone.
That drives me nuts. I get distracted when the customer hovers around and talks nonstop. I try to listen to them but then I find myself forgetting to do something or missing a step. You're a good man Curtis. I used my coil gun yesterday and sure do like it. I'd better for what that thing cost!
Curtis you get dogs barking, snakes hissing and old ladies yacking. LOL
Some of my favorite videos from Curtis have nature sounds - mostly bird calls, in his morning calls. The constantly barking dogs and beeping smoke detectors? Eh, not so much.
February 17, 2088…she’s still at the fence talking 🤣🤣🤣
At least she didn't have 4 or 5 curtain climbers out there hoopin' and a hollerin' at the same time! 😅
That evaporator coil definitely needs a cleaning. Great job Curtis! 👍
Thanks 👍
420 That is high! Cracked me up.
Awe...you made a new friend Curtis. Your customer relations and calm demeanor are probably appreciated. Properly removing and cleaning that evap coil should be a breeze. Good job as always!
Great handling of the tenant, Curtis! You come across as friendly, efficient, and effective in your work while she shares all her stories.
That lady Is Tripping me out 😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Lady herself is Tripping. 😬👍
Better than a annoying barking dog
she's old school deep south...good people.
I live in the Carolinas and alot of my customers are the same.
be sure and service the blower motor and check the blower wheel. scroll compressors can handle liquid slugging, or it would already be dead. it does reduce cooling capacity.
@@catwrangler1613 I'm in Mississippi, I can relate 😅
Very nice lady. She's definitely a talker.
I've had customers like this that just talk and talk and talk, but they're funny so it kept me entertained.
And the best part is when they distract you for a bit and you make sparks with high voltage
Great job as always curtis chatty Kathy and all thanks for the video
Glad you enjoyed it
Curtis, I can see raising the unit off the ground, but why do they attach a strap to the side of the house. The frame in a mobile home is not very structurally sound. If you are going to use the wire brush to clean coils, why not cut off the handle. It would be easier to get up into the coil.
Nice cleaning job Curtis, you sure had a Chatter Box there to keep you company 😉 😊 Au
Curtis, I admire your positive attitude and persistent to do the right thing.
This was one of the best videos. Your thought process was clear and very articulate. The best part was there is no dogs and no beeping smoke alarms but even better was the lady she was very entertaining I didn't understand a word she said but oh boy he needs some milk 🥛
I do like that they raise those units up out of the dirt. Thx.
And out of dogs pee! LOL
I’d say the evaporator coil was more than a little dirty
You have a lot of patience Curtis. regards from UK.
Uk is blessed with mini splits
Dirty coils creats a restriction and high/ weird pressures on the liquid guage.
Thank you for an extra special video, she sure can talk up a storm, well done on all your work (from UK)
That's a real Helicopter right there lol 😊
She lonely 😂
Lordy Lordy. She sho is friendly. Loved the video Curtis.
Thanks
The top part of the evaporator coil didn't have any condensation on it where it attached to the suction line.
I no HVAC guy but have learned a lot from you one thing I don’t understand is what are normal readings when you hook up the Bluetooth devices to the system ? What is the correct range ? Does it depend on the Different brands ?
Depends on the type of refrigerant
I have a 24000 BTU inverter Split unit in Greece. Super quiet and efficient. My guy comes once a year and washes every thing, both inside and out. I can't believe how dirty they let them get.
A very good video with all the details - thank you sir.
Glad it was helpful!
Clean the evap to bring up SH, (assuming its piston), Overcharged with non condensables. Thanks for the video curtis
I aint telling you nothing you dont already know lol
You talk about the compressor surging, what might cause that. Excellent video. Thank You...
Being overcharged
I think that lady is overcharged
That little lady is lonely bless her heart.

Great video like always, my friend. Stay safe out there and keep up the great work appreciate all your content.🫡
Thanks
I use the same wire brush to clean evap coils sometimes… Cut the handle off though. So much easier to use. 🤙🏻
Good tip!
She just chatting away 😂
Had one like that recently, ended up being an oversized piston.
That’s what I’m thinking too. It’s got ok to high suction pressure so can’t be airflow. I’m aiming for oversized office.
Spray the evaporator with water use a bottle brush it rolls off in sheets, should have checked the evap after cleaning the condenser static pressure would have told you., Feildpeoce digital instruments looks like tech school equipped. 1/2 ton bigger coil is not a big deal your condenser fan might be slowing down your service information is incomplete like you know? , but what do I know! keep learning always more info.
You might have considered increasing the blower speed, at least temporarily to increase superheat.
Great job !
Thanks
You was good company for the lady and helped with her A/C great for a Saturday
This lady is cracking me up
With evaporator coils, I just brush and vacuum the dirty side, and blow it out using nitrogen or compressed air from the other.
I spray them down with that foam cleaner, usually works, but then again that's a bad one there.
I'm thinking the metering device may be too big. I found a 10 ton Trane commercial split system once with no metering device. Liquid line fed straight into TXV distributor. Killed the compressor, too.
Very vocal client 😅. Another good job.
Nice work Curtis. That evap coil was nasty.
Barbecue brush with handle would be great
That was Disgusting so Thanks for doing what you did Carefully to Clean it the Best you could. Hope they have you back out to Clean it properly. 👍
It was cleaned properly; needs to be done yearly! Save electricity too.
Wow, I can't get a word in, lol. That thing was some dirty. You fixed that. I bet it cools like a new one now. Cleaning the evaporator will do it for sure. Nice job. My old unit is still limping along, try to get through another summer. The stop leak, knock on wood, worked. I was putting 3 to 4 lbs a year in it, and it has been over a year and I haven't had to add any. I know it's just a band - aid, but for now I'm still rocking. 19 year old Goodman 4 ton unit. I know I will have to embrace the inevitable.
That's impressive for a Goodman.
Oh man, that lady is a trip! 🤣
If i heard you correct, you said 2.5 ton condensor and a 3 ton evap coil. Even dirty you should get some super heat.
how do you recover refrigerant?
Well, at least your visit gave one of her friends relief from a phone call they might not have answered. 😆 Forty-four? Girl, I hope you got quite a few more years to go before you gotta worry about hot flashes.
yup indoor cool clogged. spray green cleaner on it and let self rinse
I miss them southern lady talkers now that I'm in California 😂
Could the piston be to big? Great video
Good Ol southern vibe customers haha
I wonder if that 3 ton evaporator coil had a piston/orifice/metering device for 2.5 tons.
Your helicopter seems very friendly. And hardly anything to say.
😂😂
lack of filter maintenance with that dirty coil or it doesn't making a good enough seal.
It looks like non condesibles for the head pressure fluctuating. Probably best to recover and start fresh.
maybe it has a oversized piston.
Hi..could you teach us how to use the digital gauges...please
Thanks again
i wonder if several of the supply registers are closed off
Hey, was wondering what model gopro you have and is that clip thing on your bag handle for the camera? If so what brand is it?
GoPro, and yes that’s a clamp mount
I love her accent. She seems like a sweet lady.
It’s like Jerry Springer up in there! CURTIS!!! CURTIS!!! CURTIS!!! 😂😂 😂
malfunctioning txv or piston?
May need to drop you’re temp clamps in some ice water and test them for accuracy
"She's a yapper, mama" --Steve Lav
A talkative lady!
she's a helicopter mamma
That lady was funny. 😂🤣
clean it and throw a TXV on it. swap out drier.
someone is getting lucky tonight.. she has an offer you can't refuse..
😂😂😂
She’s a talker mama!
Curtis, Always a Great video! That lady... way too much talking! she gave me a headache! That evap. coil... I gave me a stomach ache! People must leave the windows open when the A/C is on. Never change the filter too. Thats going to cost them!
Love a friendly customer but man can she talk
She was alright though. She was fun to talk to I bet 😂
Lady is high as a kite
You should saw the handle off your wire brush. More convenient.
Expansion valve is surging.
She's right it is double dipp'n. She do like to talk lol
Bye Felicia!
She doesn't stop talking wttffff!!! :D
You had a talker
Looks like somebody overcharged with wrong gas
Curtis; Who did the ac maintenance in this house?
Client: that would be my nephew thomas!
Curtis; what year did his ac stop working?
Client; about 2 yea..howd you know that?
The numbers are not visible we cannot see
Did you check Evap coil if coil is blocked causing low reading on low side
Keep watching
“I can’t hear you”…is that to tell her I don’t want to hear you, am making a video?😎
Woah Vicky
Lady Let the people work.. omg😅
She needs to lay off the caffeine 😂
I was thinking there might be some espresso involved.
Maybe a horse grooming comb might work on that evaporator?
Recover gas, clean evap, new drier, charge back up with virgin R410A. Those pressures were all over the place. Kinda looks like non-condensibles in the system.
Wow that lady just don't know when to quit. Stuff like that you gotta tell her to go check the tstat if it's on or somthing
Did you charge her extra for the therapy session? That may be the reason the unit was in such disrepair. The last guy couldn't put up with the chattering so did a half ass job..
