I give you props for doing the installs by yourself especially when you have 2 broken ribs. Shows how dedicated you are and loyal to these customers and give them heat. It's nice to have another guy around to make it go a bit easier but in this field you deal what your dealt with and make it work. Work smarter not harder. Great video
I too aprishead mr paul sir
Dedicated to that money 💰 🤑💰🤑🤑🤑 BOOOOOOIIIIIIII
There is no other other trade like being an HAVC/R tech. We do everything. We are Electricians, Plumbers, Carpenters, we do it all...
‘tis true
Curtis you are a tough rascal. I say again your customers are blessed to have you. You are a throwback to a time when people took pride in their work and perfected customer service.
Thanks
My buddy just passed his state licensing exam today in Ca. He enrolled in one of those "pass or don't pay schools." He wanted to be totally prepared when took the test. A total waste of money according to him. He studied long hours to prepare for the test. I quizzed him and he did exceptionally well. He said that after ALL the work he put in, at the most were maybe 5 questions on the test that pertained to what he had studied. I would say he was more upset about that, than he was happy that he had passed the test.
I studied for two years as I was getting my application together. I had flash cards. I mean that all that was in my mind. I was well prepared. Can’t prepare too much.
The first time I seen you I thought , well he’s mechanically inclined and he’s not lazy! How’d I know you wonder? The ford hat! You’re either working on it or walking to the parts store ! Good video as always.
😂
I drive a 95 f350 4x4 with the 7.3. Man my calves are ripped and I have a mean grip.
They are loud, but handy !!!👍😁
Watching these make me want to start my own business. Good days work and a good days pay
I started mine last year and let me tell you, better be prepared to work more than you do now.
@@blakeperson9189 yep
Good job Curtis.
Never have I used the service wrench for high voltage. Going to implement this on my calls.
Well there answers my question about that duct flange.its totally rotted. But you're doing great friend.
You buy a bunch of coil cleaner to get that hat @10:53 I asked for one but they told me they were for the promo lol. I admire your attention to detail and your thoroughness. I thank you for your regular content your one of my favorite youtubers keep up the good work and I hope your ribs heal soon
No, they gave it to me.
@@HVACGUYnice they have good quality hats
The joys of the new install / remodel. Looks like ya got it out but I bet it was a little tougher than the video. Hopefully the reinstall goes better.
Yes, it was. That was four hours condensed into 11 minutes.
Omg that is going to be a hard one, but makes formidable challenge once you do those once in a while. We used to replace those with package units instead, when I used to work for a company.the gas furnaces where a nightmare to remove and then cover the hole, customer would have a new closet.but then we had run flex duct underneath the home and add a new return.omg.i was in my 28s.
Not sure what type of saw blades you use for your circular saw and sawzall but I love the Diablo blades. They cut through stuff like butter and last awhile for me.
The blade in the sawzall was a Diablo. It ate right through screws as well
Awesome Job
I heard that you have a rooster supervisor on site as well 😀
Good job i enjoy your work
I really hope there was added cost to the flooring you done? Usually when I install in trailers I would tell the owner that there could be hidden floor damage and I won't know til after the unit is out and either I'll repair at an additional cost or they can pay a flooring guy.
Nice work
HOPE you estimated and gave the right price, that is a lot of work and when installing a lot of unknowns.
I estimated 8 hours of work. I may run over on that, but I’m doing it myself, so no big deal.
I'd still rather do a mobile home job than a standard built residential replacement.
👍
When you say electric, do you mean you installed a heat pump system? What brand and model is the heat pump and air handler? I need to upgrade my loud single stage furnace soon.
This is exactly why I wouldn’t do residential.
And just when you thought you cut through and there's a freaking 2by4 Wall..
Have a question. I bought an older 3 bed 2 bath 16x80 manufactured home made in 1992 anyhow I went with a gas package unit instead of a split system. I have 9 registers but want to upgrade all the duct work as it’s falling apart and would like to know what size duct work to go with on supply side . I went with a 16 inch on return with a 20x30 filter grille
Great videos 😜
Hello , hav enough put a Mr Cool unit into a mobile home ?

Those micro channel coils are junk… work on a lot of mobile home systems in and around the Austin tx area and boy they are only 7&9 yrs old…
7 to 9 years? Doing better than a lot of other coils
@@josh1976dove most still last 10 yrs or so residential. But yes, cheap aluminum and cheap copper with high pressures is not a good mixture.
