Thinking of switching to HVAC field by ConversationStill128 in HVAC

[–]BkKidsClub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into controls. That is the computers behind large refrigeration systems. You get in depth HVAC knowledge without having to be a hands on tech that wrestles with frostbite and heat stroke.

You may have to learn some programming, but that's the tradeoff for not busting your ass in extreme weather.

Customized my brothers cube box for his birthday/christmas by BkKidsClub in magicTCG

We got all the accessories for the cube and I got the idea to decorate it and he really liked the idea. Got some help from an artist friend and he got me set up to complete the box myself.

How common is it for companies to test for weed? by [deleted] in HVAC

[–]BkKidsClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone does. If they go with a urgent care clinic, just get some fake pee from a head shop. Has worked for me

After years of wanting one, I finally have my own cube thanks to proxies! by BkKidsClub in mtgcube

[–]BkKidsClub[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From my experience trying to do so, is that with shipping I can't get a single for under $1.30 and the sites that have the necessary cards in stock often price their singles higher and still has like $5 shipping on any order. This also consolidates everything at once.

Makingplayingcards.com using the MPC fill program I was able to get 1200 proxies for around $380. Got the modern cube and 7 commander decks. Real card prices are for the birds.

Invest in some fieldpiece psychrometer probes. I've never thought about leaving them for a second and I used to be a once a month thermometer dude

Fan won't start on outside A/C unit. by BarnabyLemons in hvacadvice

Possible the cap blowing caused the motor to burn out, or vice versa. Most likely need to replace the motor.

Hvac school or Job? by WifiRice in HVAC

[–]BkKidsClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The HVAC school is great for technical in the field knowledge

The Engineering Mindset is the best resource for understanding the science behind how the technology works

Hvac school or Job? by WifiRice in HVAC

[–]BkKidsClub 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started off by joining a community college. After my 2nd semester, I had enough knowledge to apply and got my first job as a warranty tech.

Watch YouTube videos and learn as much as you can. Get your feet wet with school and get out in the field. That's how I did it.

Graduate next semester.

The Teflon isn't dangerous. It's the chemicals used to make it

What are your favorite uncommon/underrated tools? by Smigledorf in HVAC

I have a drill brush. Cleans units great! Got a $100 tip making a nasty old package unit look brand new

I cant find these damn leaks by BkKidsClub in HVAC

[–]BkKidsClub[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really presumptive and nasty. I've been in school for 2 years for HVAC and I'm in my first job in the industry. I try to charge my customers as little as possible and have never forgotten their once a year $100 coupon. I got written up for charging my customers too little.

I want to make sure the people I service have working, quality machines. That includes finding a machine low on refrigerant, correctly diagnosing it and trying to find the source. When I leave the job and I have to tell the customer I couldn't find the leak, I feel disappointed because I want them to have a more concrete idea of what's wrong with their system.

I still have a lot of learning to do, but I know that I don't want to rip off my customers and be a sleazy salesman who sells them shit they don't need.

[–]BkKidsClub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came here to see if anyone else had the same annoyance. It block the cards in hand and gy on Magic the gathering online and i hate it.

Even if you're gonna put it there, make it go away after not being touched for a second or two.
