Great job on the install. I like the removal of the 90s and you put a couple of sweeps on the lines I'm definitely going to use that in the future. Only thing I seen that kind of erked me is no nitrogen used while brazing. Other than that I can tell you take pride in your work. You got a sub from me, brother.
Definitely allows for better flow! I get it, I didn’t flow at condenser but flowed at evap, also flushed, I have another changeout coming up to show a better process ! Thanks for the feedback David 🫡
Just hulk that new fully assembled air handler up on to that platform….no need to pull the coil and blower out…..you got muscles so use them…..honestly……do you think you’re too good for chronic back pain?!…..just eat pain pills for lunch….you’ll be fine.
Jam it Shaky your right!! I’m slacking, appreciate the motivation, just got some perks 💊 from the homie, that way when I throw it out, I’ll be good 💪 😂
does the air handler not need a ptrap and vent to drain properly? you capped both vents? i was always taught to cap then vent on electric units. good video brother
In Florida, the drain lines generally go down, into the foundation and then up and outside creating a trap! For sure should always have a trap on negative pressure!! Appreciate it 🫡
Hi I am considering to be a HVAC tech in Canada - Ontario, can you please tell me how much money do you make roughly on an install or in general what is the income for a small business owner after getting license
Oh your mileage may vary drastically, depends on if you work for a company, whether you get paid hourly,commission or piece rate etc. If being an owner is your goal it’ll depend on margins and what you pay yourself and reinvest back to the business.
@@KoolinwithKrauss thanks for the reply! I am actually in healthcare management now but the pay is not good and considering to switch to HVAC, its very hard to connect to licensed techs in Toronto and not much info online.. just wanted to understand how much income difference would I be looking at after spending 5 years in apprenticeship; thank you!
Dang man 35 years?! Hats off brother!! But I flushed it, didn’t film, or previous install I show it, in a lot of my previous videos I preach flushing, just didn’t record that amongst others steps!
I'm enjoying comments as much as video. The man is showing what can be done and his style of installation. I'm guessing 4-6 hours or more of work, maybe 2 hours getting equipment and supplies if things go accordingly. Being diligent and working solo is satisfying. No helicopter is a plus. Thank you for sharing this video, just another day in paradise.
Mannnn!!! Much appreciated 🫡 I just wanted to document a video to a minimum extent, not a full on how to do!! I’d assume if ppl watch the video it would be those that enjoy doing the work and have some what of an understanding of what goes on into an install. Again appreciate you Breeze thanks for watching!!

Great work bro 💪🏼💪🏼. I have a question. If you have a horizontal hanging air handler, would you do it solo too? Only asking because I recently did one and I was stupid and left everything inside of it before taking it down (coil and fan motor) you inspired me that I can do a change out all by my self. 💪🏼💪🏼
I’d rock most of them solo! But would DEFINITELY unload that thing and make it easier 😂 I learned I use to want to be a bill but learned, now if someone’s with me, I’ll hump it with everything!! I’m just not equipped to do installs, if I outfitted my truck to do both would definitely help as well!! You got this ish homie 💪🏻 💪🏻 🔥 🔥
As time goes by and back pains and the knee pains sit-in we've learnt to get help. Sure there is more profit when you're by yourself, but at what price does your body pay for it.
Definitely agree!! Won’t be many of these going forward! I like the smart a safe route for sure 👍🏻 given the circumstances for the job, it was the way it played out!
Woooo that’s tough dude!! We definitely have the fair share of attics but a lot more garages!! And Orlando based. But Ruuds been really good and reliable. They have their flaws but who doesn’t, but our distributor is really good!
Next time please record and share the entire process so we can all be right when judging your professionalism . I want to watch the entire 80hour video . Hahahaha Nice job
Dude I enjoyed your tool load out video’s. As far as this install issues all over the place. If your going to show “banger” videos you need to do the job correctly. - When you pulled the outdoor unit, you needed to cap off/tape the lineset off, I like that you sand before you cut - Would not have taken much to rinse down the pad area before placing pad - Stand offs needed to keep lineset out of the dirt, regardless of the other unit - You did not flush the lineset of R22 residual, so your going to have issues with the 410a oil in the lines - You did not use a nitrogen purge while brazing, so TXV will have issues later Trying to look cool while doing to job is not as important as doing it right. Do better man…
🤣 love the “critique” dude! Especially since the entire process didn’t get filmed, and phone was overheating. Watch the previous videos I talk about flush, I flush every job. And on this one as well txv-11 at 6:13 you can see lineset was taped off Sure could have sprayed pad but I didn’t 🤷🏼♂️ This is Florida, linesets are buried, in the ground, sitting on the ground that’s just how it. Stand offs aren’t “needed” or code Used nitrogen when I brazed inside, didn’t film that either. Stated at the end I didn’t film everything just was getting the job done. Didn’t show me pressure test, evacuation, micron, decay, releasing charge, wiring up the unit, drain line, mastic etc but it got done. But appreciate the feed back 👍🏻
@@KoolinwithKraussseems like some people don’t watch the whole video or pay attention bro! I could understand not being able to film the whole process! Fire content my dude, keep it up 💪🏻🇺🇸🤘🏻💯👏🏻
My Ruud is 4 yrs old and the coil is leaking. My last one was Ruud and lasted 18 yrs. The new ones are junk just ask anyone who has one. Sad part other brands are not any better.
All manufacturers have their flaws and it’s a darn shame!! The days of long sustainability are far and few in my opinion. Or at least you’ll have one or 2 “major” repairs in the lifespan
Why do I do this shit all day and then watch somebody else do the same shit? Haha HVAC is fun. Keep up making the videos man, we're all out here with you fighting the good fight.
Was just a bit of sarcasm, being a vacuum pump and it “sucked” 😂 but honestly that’s a warranty one my first one burned up in about a 15 months. I change my oil religiously! Hell Yeah BIG CAR!! Get Some 💪🏻 🔥 🫡
When i run into airhandlers or furnaces that wedged in like that, with the flages bent into the supply or return can. I pull the blower and use my millwaukee nibblers to cut the top half of the cabinet off.
Working alone who wouldn’t want to do that . I do it a lot doing this profession. I do use a ratchet strap to strap the new or old condenser to the dolly so I can rock it back and not have to fight the weight trying to hold dolly and unit with each hand . Can rock back and roll and it keeps on dolly not sliding off in a un level yard or something .
It’s great I usually do!! Maybe one out of every 500 calls I’ll have some one with me, I don’t typically do installs and my van isn’t outfitted to well for it, but I’m definitely going to throw some straps on there, thanks 🫡
nice install,pretty smart idea on taking out the coil and blower before putting the air handler up there I usually have someone to give me a hand ,muscle it up there in one piece but i might try this if i ever need to go solo on an upflow install.
Hello, this is mike from amsterdam holland I heard to say that the old system was r twenty two I didn't see you brace with nitrogenium You didn't change old line set r twenty two is not compatible with other gases
Hey Mike 🫡 there’s a few other comments with same question. Basically I didn’t film the entirety of the processes taken to do the install. I did flow nitro, . I also flushed the lineset with Rx-11. My previous install video I show flushing and using nitro, just was getting hot and didn’t have time to film every little thing. But in a bunch of my previous videos I speak to be sure to flush and use nitro 👍🏻
I can feel that sentiment 😂 love it tho!! And honestly, 50/50 right now, I like the 2 stage on it and all that but for whatever reason the assembly feels very “cheap” not very stable
It’s florida 🤦🏼♂️ 😂 basically the copper (in most cases) and drain line run under a 4” chase through pvc in the foundation, and it’s brought up out the ground as an access point almost like a trap! Now why it’s done that way 🤷♂️ its a pain
The filter should be installed as close to the evaporated as possible. But since some of them are so hard to get to in closets, crawl spaces or attic. They are allowed to be installed outside next to the condenser.
@@KoolinwithKrauss that’s cool man.. at Kalos? Wouldn’t work anywhere else I don’t think. I have and this place is just different. Great people. My next step would be going out on my own but nooot just yet.

I worked with a 64 year old man that still does solo residential installs he is the sole employee and has made a damn good name for himself over 30years. He truly has a million dollar phone
So I’m a Ruud dealer in Michigan… Obviously in FL you have different requirements. That Pad looked way overkill for up here and we don’t strap the condenser to the pad.
That was not a full install... you retrofitted equipment... that was it. Reused the old equipment ( lineset,disconnect, whip... ect)... did not use nitro while brazing,,, the inside of the lineset is full of carbon now. you did not flush out lineset prior to brazing..You put tape on the inside of the supply plenum. What a tragedy! Poor professional ism... there is no excuse!
🤣 solid bro 👍🏻 as stated, watch the full video, you can clearly see not every step was filmed, would you believe I wired the unit, evactualed, put the tie downs, programmed stat, installed heat strip, released the charge, etc? line set was flushed with rx -11, not full of carbon used nitro brazing the inside! Yup, sure did tape, fab and mastic the the inside when you can reach the back what do you do bub?! Thanks for the feedback 🙏🏻 🤣 🤦🏼♂️
What’s wrong with the lineset? It’s free of leaks and properly sized, just re use it. Nothing is wrong with the disconnect, doesn’t really NEED to be replaced. Not every customer wants to spend all the extra money
@@mathewbrown8206 wow! When brazing without nitro,large amounts of carbon will build up internally in the lineset,with the possibility of creating a restriction with in the filter dryer and the capillary lines with in the evaporator and condenser coils. Not flushing the line set, will leave the old burnt oils in the line(acidic contaminates) from compressor burn out , not good for the new compressor. Flushing also prevents the mixing of contamination of different oils and refrigerants that are not compatible. As for the disconnect the whip is U.V dry rotted... the disconnect is most likely ok.. but for a few dollar difference. Change it! Customers expect PROFFESIONALISM, its not about the lowest price its about the biggest bang for the buck. If someone wants the cheapest price " call a plumber" or your nearest hvac hacker
Great job on the install. I like the removal of the 90s and you put a couple of sweeps on the lines I'm definitely going to use that in the future.
