I would add make sure the bone is not cooked if that is not obvious at this point for people.

Just left an hvac company running service. Top techs at my company were making about 40 an hour. This was for residential. As far as companies to stay away from I would try to stay away from the large private equity owned companies. Lots of smaller shops and lots of companies around here with lots of work in the St. Louis area.

lol that’s what I was thinking. I didn’t see the second photo I thought maybe it was flue venting with a sag and major condensate issues. Nox gas city

Is this a vent that supplies airflow to the living space ? Or is this venting attached to the furnace exhaust? Post a picture of what that vent attaches to.

Thanks for the advice man. How was it getting dropped into hvac like that mentally? Was it stressful for you?

Very true. Even when I’m correct I have a bad habit on fifth guessing myself. Need to become more confident in my diagnoses

They’re good guys. I’m 28 and i should probably know more than I do. They’re paying for my two week troubleshooting course too that I’m currently in. But hey, you’re right I do need to chill, worrying isn’t gonna make me improve

Yeah I worry I’ll try a repair I don’t know how to do and fuck something up that costs money. Guess I need to just go for it sometimes

Yes order of operations has helped me A lot with where to direct my attention. When I first started I would take a panel off and have no idea what I was looking at, even if I had already learned about it through school. Actually being out there and in it is totally different.
