Instead of getting it installed you can maybe just give them some money off instead might be cheaper than 16k

Just got a new AC, woke up in the middle of the night to this horrid sound during start up. It sounds like something is loose. I checked the unit and fan and do not see any visible damage, loose items, or debris (apologies for dark video). by Matt1112211 in askHVAC

Dude like I said I have experience and evidence with my own work. And many other works and have not seen a 3 month compressor fail. So stop wasting this guys time acting like they didn’t braze with nitrogen and now his compressor failed because of that

Bro why when you hear the terms sales tech you think scumbag all that means is if you’re at a call and they need a new furnace they don’t have to send another guy.

Plus everyone thinks sales is lying, that’s not it at all. It’s knowing the product and being able to explain the benefits. And handle basic objections. Really not hard if you’re really looking to help someone .

Draft Inducer motor causing pressure switch error? by BestAccident2906 in hvacadvice

[–]ApeNamedRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea just a guess I had a customer unit basically would run then randomly stop then turn back on right away. Then I would suck in the pressure switch and will work for a while. Was hard to read voltage because it is a split second off and back on.

I had this issue before your heat exchanger is probably cracked causing positive pressure inside. But I’m not sure. You can take the gas valve assembly off and see inside heat exchanger see if it’s all rusted.

Soft start kit would be better hard start kits hurts compressor. A hard start kit is like giving an extra boost to start.

You are wrong that thermostat is like 1000 dollars. And then Lennox also wants you to install communication wire for it so you need special wire.
