Dual Draft Inducer Installation Day

  • Our day begins with the installation of a draft inducer on an Energy Kinetics boiler. Little did we anticipate the twist that awaited us-an issue arose as threads broke off in the nut. However, in a stroke of resourcefulness, we managed to overcome this setback by repurposing a nut from a mounting plate not currently supporting any components.
    The narrative takes an intriguing turn as we progress to picking up a brand-new Lochinvar motor assembly, only to discover that the blower wheel is out of orientation. Witness the meticulous process of realigning the blower wheel, ensuring that the motor functions seamlessly. Experience the highs and lows of troubleshooting, a common theme in the dynamic world of HVAC.
    However, the saga continues as we face additional challenges-the pump motor and flow switch are identified as faulty during testing. While installing a new bearing assembly seems like a logical step, it becomes apparent that without a replacement pump in our shop, the journey is put on hold.
    Through this storytelling, my aim is to provide viewers with a glimpse into the day-to-day intricacies of HVAC work, where problem-solving skills, adaptability, and resourcefulness are crucial. Whether you're a seasoned professional seeking relatable experiences or an enthusiast eager to understand the dynamic nature of the field, this narrative promises an engaging and educational journey through the complexities

    When i saw you start taking the blower off i was like damn bro save some time and take it off from the heat exchanger but we all learn, next time will be easier anyways you seem young and very smart, you will do very well in this trade especially when theres less and less kids trying to get into the trades.

    Good Job! Happy new year! How many years do you have in the trade? Will you be learning general plumbing like faucets and drains in the future?

      I’d imagine - like most of us who came up in service & repair, that’s more where ya start. Takes a few years before most guys can get comfortable being uncomfortable

    I love these videos! How in the world are you supposed to get the set screw out at around the 9 minute mark? Very creative with the channel locks, but like you said - if that was not brand new there's no way you could get that to turn. I wonder if there's something like a 90 degree attachment that can take a bit?

    When replacing anything with bearings ( motors, pumps, other ), do you ever come across brands / models that allow you to EASILY grease / oil the bearings ?
    Almost never see that these days. If you accomplished finding a source and then advertised to your customers that you use serviceable / maintainable parts ( and are therefor better then your competition ). This could maybe be a unique beneficial talking point for your business ? :o ?
