- Multiple Goodman Package Units today with problems. First time in a while my boss drove me around, but it's always good to see the more experienced technicians diagnose Units and see how they think. Definitely tired of Goodman Package Units though.

Love watching these kinds of videos. Love seeing all the ins and outs and technical aspects of HVAC. I know it's everyday stuff for you guys but it's very informative.
Thanks for tuning in! Check out some of the other videos if you're interested, or subscribe and hit the bell icon to let you know when I post again
Every one loves to jump on Good . I was carrier commercial dealer, until I sold the business in 2009. My son in law wanted to start something when he left the service so I helped him get his feet wet, Goodman was available from our local supply house. If installed correctly I will put them up against any of them . The problem is less experienced individuals including diy are attempting to put them in. We have gone behind a few Diy installs and quickie firms and had to flush systems, pull new copper, replace trxv and basically reinstall it because they had no clue. And yes we have replaced compressors after less than year due to leaks, air and dirt left in the lines
I don't doubt that. They're one of my favorite units to work on, only gripe I have is replacing the evap coils on their package units. Every unit I feel if installed correctly, holds up really well.
DIY should stick to mini split in my opinion. Too much that can be messed up in central and will cost the money you saved to fix. Mini splits are at least priced to be disposable nowadays.
Minisplits aren't practical for every application. Especially since the houses I work on can't keep up in cold climates. We consistently get called out to the rentals that are using JUST heat pump minisplits to heat/cool the home during the winter time
Your boss is wise beyond his age. I’m an Engineer for the County who’s been there for many years. People need to be fair and understand time = knowledge. The last job you were on could def be a dirty blower wheel , dirty evap , or even wrong motor speed / duct size. When in heat mode ( if it overheats ) static pressure and gas valve pressure would have been a good confirmation. Great Job!!
Appreciate the compliment for him. I eliminated those as problems because the first time we were there was as a PM to try and see if the investor could keep it running. It was running a 0.3-0.4 static. That Goodman model has a range (first time I ever seen it) and it said from 0.2-0.5. We still cleaned the evap coil and the condenser coil. The duct is all hard piped underneath the home.
On top of that, when I looked in the house before they did the flooring, they had a old return for a whole house in floor heater that was like 25x30, but whenever the home got central heating and air in they decided to not use that space anymore and use the return in the wall. My boss stressed to the investor the unit needed the return back there because like I stated, it's got like a "somethin by"x20 return grille on the wall but then reduces down to like a 9x24 which definitely is too small for a 2.5 ton system.
Great job, Austin!
Thank you sir for instilling in me all the knowledge that got me this job...and telling me to shut up when I was asking too many questions 🤣
Those units have problems with the circuit boards cracking on the saftey switch plug. Same with the rheem, armana, and carrier.
That's why he's the boss, And you're the helper.
I have 6 of those Goodman/ Amanna gas packs
I have never had a problem with them, they range from 3 to 12 yrs old. Never had a new part on them just service them spri g and fall.
I was his "helper" today lol.
That's so funny you're with another "long hair" lol
Goodluck to the owner of good aire solutions you two techs are some bums.
Thanks for tuning into the video 😁!!! Don't forget to watch other videos and tell me how much of bums we are, I'd love the criticism.
@@AB_HVAC im ok I don’t need to see anymore videos. I saw enough guessing and part’s changing in this video. A service tech doesn’t just change parts or fuck up a part that was just replaced 😂 there’s a reason we trouble shoot to determine the issue and find why it happened, not everything is a bad motor or bad part. Fucking bum
What's important is you're actually learning instead of thinking you already know everything. A lot of guys would just say, my stupid boss just got lucky this time.
🤣 nah I pick my battles with him. My mentor always told me, when you're the least experienced tech on site, give suggestions but pay attention. Makes me feel better when I'm by myself or with Jacob and I didn't need to call him for any advice.
This thing still ain’t working right!
You know who to call to get it on the schedule 😅. We will do our best to get it together. Chad also says double check that the gas is on over there, he said when he went Friday it was off
where are you guys from ??
North Augusta, South Carolina.
Bossman is one with a few words but much experience.
He really isn't a talker and you're right, years of experience
I've met rattlesnake's with a better personality than that one guy.
Idk who that one guy is but damn🤣
Hi sir I am AC technician I need job hvac your you are have job AC technician I have experience 15 years Saudi Arab
🤔
Oh boy if it's not yank and twist mechanical... Finger on the ortifce..for gas pressure.then pouring water on and inducer motor and energizing 😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣 there's a method to his madness I promise. I was confused as hell too but we got it back running and that inducer draft motor was replaced.
I am a field tech not HVAC but I could often show up on site on a motorcycle and a leatherman and get things running. I use the proper equipment if it is necessary but seat of pants engineering is often a quicker way to get where you need to be especially if there will be a return trip to fix it right.
Whatever works, my boss used to not have a legit tool bag before I got with him. Introduced him to Veto bags and he don't leave the house without it now
