Jack is correct, ever since I've been out of school and nobody has taught me or shown me that air flow and duct design is critical. I would love to learn more about this
what a great talker... when I called him several years ago in search of actual training and after MANY calls throughout the US, I only had about $10.000 in my young one-man band company. We agreed on everything; and the discussion was pretty much what was said here. I was in state of disarray and frustration as I couldn't find anyone in the whole country that would teach that stuff properly, no fast course that are essentially a waste of money. I was very happy to talk to him and thought I had found THE guy. Boy was I wrong. When I came to wanting to pay his full day fee by myself (10% of what I had) just because there weren't any in-depth classes teaching Manual D and create a long term relationship with him (I am also involved in a local vo-tech school), his response was: "OH, I ONLY TEACH GROUPS, I DON'T TEACH RICH PEOPLE." It was like being kicked in the face by Bruce Lee when asking him for an autograph. While he clearly has the knowledge, his time is so precious that we simple mere mortals are not worthy of his word if not aggregated in a place of worship. A lot of good talk here, but from where I'm standing, I can only see BS and more reasons why our industry is in such a bad shape. If no one is taught properly and willing to pick up the fight, who will rise as the next Jack Rise ??
One of the best pod cast on here so far. This was great. Bring him back on for sure. Thanks to both of you! Jack is able to translate it in to the potato-head version- Cool. Be buying on of his books for sure!
Ha..I understand what Jack referred to about a 'read' presentation. I just attended a Bryant Ductless diagnostic procedures with slides and no hands on equipment except a hollowed high wall cover.. nothing mentioned 'how' to dismantle up to components diagnosed as defective, and read from the book..
Loves the info on this. Totally agree with the flex duct down here in fl. All the flex i see is bunched up eating air flow Little confused on the static he was saying but looks like i have to hit the books again
Amazing info! Wish I could afford to learn more and read Author Jack Rise book!!
