It is refreshing to see a neat, clean, organized and quality install!!
Finally getting ac in your shop. The trade term is “A shoemaker with holes in his shoes”. An electrician probably needs a receptacle in his house. You just never find the time to get your own work done
1000% I have 5 min jobs all over my house and for 2 years been telling the wife tomorrow
refrigerartion guy here with a leaky r22 system at home. guilty as charged lmao
That’s cause we do the job all day for money. Soon as we have to do it for ourselves there’s no money coming in for it lol
@@grahamworksconstructionmy wife once asked how much I charged, she figured that I would get something done if she paid me lol. Also, I once got one of those “5 minute jobs” done while she was watching…she looked at me and said “that’s it! I waited all this time for that?!?!” 😂😂😂. Getting our own work done is a challenge.
Camera quality, ur work quality, everything amazing man, good Job, you will motivate more and more people to get into this trade the way you do your work. May god bless your family and yourself, keep up the great vids Zac
It's too bad nearly every customer is a thankless asshole.
My brother had a sign shop with no sign on his business
👍 another well planned / executed project !!! Keep the videos coming .
Like all the other installs you always make it look good brother looks damn good
Consider putting a high volume, low static fan to move the air around
clean , clean work clean mindset clean land clean shop clean houses everything is clean i would like to live my rest life there , god bless you
I just installed (certified HVAC installer) 3 zone Mitsubishi mini split unit in my home. I only wanted to cool/heat the bedrooms separately at night. We tend to have very warm nights out here in Southern AZ. It will allow me to turn off my 5 ton American Standard unit at night and only cool the bedrooms. I'm looking forward to lowering my electric consumption with this decision. According to my calculations it will take me about 3 years for this system to pay for itself (savings in electrical consumption during the Summer months.
That's a crazy payback period for a new HVAC install, but I guess if you're not running a larger 5-ton system and only using smaller splits (which are pretty damn efficient these days) I can see it making sense.
@@erikgutierrez3613 My American Standard central system is a 16 SEER where the Mitsubishi 3 zone system is SEER 18. The difference for me is that I am only cooling one master bedroom during our hot Summer nights. I also have other contributing factors like R48 in the attic and in the walls. All of my windows are triple paned with PVC/fiberglass reinforcement. All of these upgrades were done over a period of time since they can be very costly. My goal was to make my home a Yeti cooler in the Summer and winter.
@@jamram9924re-cooling the rest of the house may mess that up for you
If you would install the solar mini splits, they’d run solar during the day and off 120 or 240 at night.
@@user-ln7of9gs4s I considered factoring the costs of solar panels, installation and permits. Through a program from our local utility company, an energy audit was conducted. I chose to invest in upgrading my windows and insulation when I remodeled my home. That was a much better investment since my electric bill is 2/3 less than my neighbors. However, solar panels are on my list but I need to budget that on my list. As a homeowner, there are other priorities that take place before solar panels. I do not want to lease them either.
Love your videos man you’re a true professional.
A nice neat job Zac, plus a neat tidy workshop, well done... Your young son will make a top A/C tradesman when he gets older 👍 Au
Highly recommend installing a surge protector. Really nice install.
i hook up my refer tank to the vacum setup. Pull a vacuum through all of it. isolate the vacuum side from the Refer side with another vacuum service port tool, as soon as my decay test passes. weigh in the charge while breaking down the vacuum setup, and you never have to worry about letting your deep vacuum rise while you completely redo your setup from vac to wiegh-in, and you eliminate trips and steps.
The outdoor runs look really clean. I'm doing Speedichannel myself on my next install. Nice work.
I'm a Haier Warranty agent in Australia and it's still crazy to me how they make the same units differently for different countries of the world. Nonetheless, nice install bro
I just put a Haier multi head system in my own house, bit loud on defrost but quite economical
Each Country has different Equipment. I know that only 10 years ago, China was still on R22 Systems ! They dont care over there. Having stopped work 18 months ago (after 51 years in the caper) Australia has much higher standards eg: energyrating.gov website. So Manufacters need to comply with many things.
Very Clean install. Nice Work!
Dude I was panicking when you were on that sloped roof. Thank you for your service.
That dog is definitely well fed, seems very happy!! 😂
Love the video as always. Very organized and professional.
I had one question; seen as how you recovered all the refrigerant from this unit before, pulled vacuum on the entire system, added back factory charge. Do you have to worry about compressor oil?
Those pads use to come with some round inset pads that gave them more surface area on the bottom. I haven't seen any like that in years. Great job!
Great video. Shop looks great
The place look's calm and peacefull ❤❤❤.
I really like HAIER. They hold up well with much thicker plastic than Fujitsu & Daiken. Only complaint is when they do fail, which is very rare, Ed’s doesn’t stock any parts and getting directly from GE outside of a warranty repair has been difficult. They do have great tech support, IMHO. Good video w/ helpful tips. Thanks!
Nice clean install. 💯
Great job Zac, You could use some more conduit and receptacles on the back wall and side in your shop, Everything Ifiacon makes is great........
Looking good, happy for you!
what is the dimensions are you shop?
Very clean install as usual, not much to nit pick. But to properly set a pad you should dig out vegetation, dump a few buckets of 3/4" minus (if needed) and tamp it down. Code in my area, you must affix the pad to ground. Taking two 2' rebars and drive them into the ground along the sides of the pad. Then strap the rebar to the pad. Also the equipment should be affixed to the pad. So the Hef-T block should be screwed to the pad with a 1.5" screw and washers. I think this is very important because if someone bumps or leans on the heat pump it could kink or tear the flares on the copper lines causing a leak. Overall a very nice install.
the equipment definitely needs to be strapped down on the exterior, but i've done countless installations in los angeles and never heard of anyone putting rebar underneath the pad lol
@@uzzrnoel Code requirement for earthquake strapping. This is Washington State, we have exceeded the over regulation of California.
Why did you choose to install the condensing unit on a pad instead of hanging them on the side of your shop? Curious your preference on this
Have you ever thought of cutting off the flares on the wall units and press rls couplings instead of using the flares. I hate having to torque those fittings. Some of the larger diameter pipes can be tough especially in tight spaces.
That is a famous quote by every HVAC guy- I am gunna do that, but not today! Nice!
I really enjoyed the video thanks for posting. Hey the way you climbed on that shed roof would qualify you for a job with the Secret Service .
Love this trade, super tough though working for a small company it’s mainly me and my boss, summer kicking my ass rn doing lots of residential and remodel installs it’s rough
Shouldn't be better to put the unit wall mounted maybe only by a feet so its easier to clean the grass under and around, also i think ends up being neater, good job 💪💪💪
How did you decide to use Haier over other brands? Price, availability, reliability or something else? Thks
Beautiful work!!
You do some awesome work
Would have ran the vertical piece in between the ribs and used the speedichannel 230-fj4 flexible joint to do the side ways elbow and an offset to get the horizontal run on top of ribs. “More than one way to skin a cat”; looks good either way.
i was fascinated by the return duct
Dude.....just lemme come work for you!!! Im a 10+ year vet, Lol, we'd have a great time and slam out some jobs!!!!! Love ur vids!!!
Hello. Great video. What line sets did you use? They look like Mueller Streamline with Duraguard UV Tear and Solar Resistant Insulation.
Clean as always!!
Any advice for someone wanting to learn about hvac? Not wanting to go to school but learn online maybe. I live in Kentucky
Love Diversitech, all there stuff is great. Recently doing my own Ducted DIY 2 ton Mr. Cool @ my house & I'm just a DIY' er. What screws did you use to screw together your wall penetration cover, mine didn't come with any? Thanks. Love your channel
What SQFT is your garage? Mine is insulated except for the ceiling however I plan on changing that. Not sure if going the mini split route or split system with duct would be best
Nice,clean & neat.
Very Nice. 😊😊
your work is very clean 👍👍👍💯💯💯
nice install
What’s the point of the line set sizes if you are reducing them down at the unit?
Haier seems not to be a commonly used brand in my area. What made you choose it? Thanks
You got it too
How do you like that brand? MY supply house is offering it now. Tx
Zach where did you get the sliding rack for your truck ?
What is your opinion of using Staybrite 8 instead or regular brazing?
It's great, I've been using it for years and never had any problems with it.
What is your torque wrench brand?
If i may ask? Why dont u solder ur evap connection instead of a mechanical flare. No disrespect, just a question.
The ones on the evap come pre flared and you sometimes you lose the warranty if you cut them off and braze them
Is it a heat pump unit ?
What a nice you have done
Why put the condenser so far away? I'm in school now for HVAC and just curious.
Nevermind I see WHY now, you have 2 Evaporators. I thought why run that channel all the way down your nice garage.
Good job..quizzes question where can I find core valve removel tool of field piece to conect my micron like that ..!
If the equipment was free, great, a while back I made good money repairing them on a subdivision with all Haier equipment, eventually changed then out. That’s the only time I encountered that brand.
My house is 4 years old. All the appliances are top end GE. Monogram in the kitchen top of range laundry. Haier is a Chinese company that bought GE out. On my washer the control board shorted out (actually common on these units) and took the drain pump out. The machine ran until it was time to drain and would stop. The drain pump was out of spec (ohmed it out) so I ordered a new one. Still did the same thing that's what lead me to the control board as it couldn't be anything else. Huge burn mark on it. That board was almost $200 and had 17 connections on it. They actually came down in price since mine went. Now that these units have been out for a few years many others have had the exact same issue. I just replaced the fill valves on it. They were working fine but were squeaking really loud. Sounds like a lot of issues but they do a great job on the laundry. Had a minor issue with the DW. A welded bracket came loose on the roof on the inside tub. I bought some heat heat epoxy and fixed that. I'm not sure any other brands are much better. Stay away from LG fridges. Bad compressors. Everyone poops on Mr. Cool but I put one in on one of my two garages. It works great so you never know.
They bought out fisher and paykel too which is a huge brand in Australia and nz there appliances uses be bulletproof and extremely high tech. Haier essentially stole all there tech, closed all the factories in au and nz and started selling rebadged Chinese haier stuff under the f&p brand. It was all just extremely disappointing as everyone knows the f&p brand for being durable and long lasting which none of that is true now.
@@maxd4968 I remember their gimmicky dual drawer dishwashers. Those had issues in the states years ago. They also made CPAP machines.
@@scotts4125 “They do a great job on the laundry”. The best laundries ARE Chinese!!! (I guess not their washing machines, though)
@@bills6946 hahahaha No ticky no laundry.
Wet flare or dry?
Interesting..i would have opted for a couple of suspended cassettes
Did you ever finish that large commercial job
Very nice install brother, congrats on your new shop.
May I ask you what brand of surge protector did you use?
Other question that I have for you… what do you think about Mitsubishi ductless units?
@quality hvacr
What tool did you use to cut the line hide?
Great job!
Beautiful job 👍💪
Clean install, definitely need a professional to do it.. 😂😂
Is that open or closed cell?
1st class work
Great video.
what torque wrench setup is that?
Beauty full shop vare nice
Good afternoon sir iam wanting to put a soft start on my ac unit compresser out side iam wanting your advice iam in south Florida? 😎
Install surge protection on the disconnect switch. Soft start is way overpriced and unproven to save you energy or increase the life of the compressor. Clean your condenser coil once a year, replace your filters every 2 months and test your capacitor in the spring and the beginning of August. That will keep the tech away in most cases.
I'm in So. Fl I have 2 split units and a mini split in a garage. I put 3 surge protectors on the disconnects. On the split systems as soon as I moved in I put hard starts on them. House is 4 years old. Already replaced an ECM blower motor in one unit and a condenser fan motor in the other unit. They are builder grade Carriers. I have 2 A/C closets. After that ECM motor went I cut holes in the lower panels of the doors and had louvers custom made for more return air and to help with static pressure. I'm in NW Broward. My backyard over the lake is the Everglades. We have gators in the lake not joking. Had one on my patio a couple years ago. Tossed a water bottle at him and he hauled butt back into the lake. I actually enjoy seeing them.
Lol do a giveaway for the your old/new veto pro pac you have in the shop.
All wece I look your work vedio
How is your golfing lol?!? What is your handicap?
idk what you’re talking about man it’ll definitely snow in nashville
I understand you're reusing an old outdoor unit so its a needs must but I'd never put a multi when singles can do the job. .By using a twin you increase the amount of time energy and cost with zero benefits.
I get most of the kit was free issue but personally, I'd only recommend multis if outdoor space is an issue which it obviously isn't here... Now if you lose one you lose both. Two splits mean lose one lose 50% capacity.
I guess this is basically an tutorial/advertorial video but it's quality install and if it fails it won't be an installer issue.
You are from
Install doesn’t count since you didn’t say “Let’s do some work”!
you did no calculation before installing this hvac installation,
I would put an indoor head in one corner and another on the opposite corner so that you create a counterclockwise airflow circulation.
I would’ve put a 3 ton 20 seer split hp sys with a sheet metal supply plenum with three commercial supply registers and been done with it. High-efficiency air cleaner on the return. You’ll regret those things when it comes time to clean them or repair them.
I really whant to work whit you❤❤❤
I am from India and I work as an air conditioner and I want to go out of India
Your country name
Hi baby
wow really ? why use a torque wrench when you ignore it completely? you know that you overtorqued it by a lot? only one click not more.
Very nice install brother, congrats on your new shop.
May I ask you what brand of surge protector did you use?
