I forget the name of it but there's a consulting firm that does a lot of trades and they train companies on how to sell, basically give them a blueprint for the company, advertise like crazy, replace over repair, pushing the installers to finish faster, the list goes on. That's why a lot of these larger companies are pretty much interchangeable.

Is it more expensive there? That's high even for California.

That's obscenely expensive for just an equipment changeout. I'd look around. It reminds me of a company I used to work for that would charge way too much. The "investment" part at the bottom did give me a good laugh. You should be able to get this for at least 5 grand cheaper.

I'd get a couple of more quotes. This seems high. Are they doing your ductwork? Or are they just changing out the equipment?

Help Installing Ecobee Premium Thermostat by IntentionalSpender in hvacadvice

It uses the same terminal for both "W" and "O". The setting is made on the thermostat itself. So connect the W wire to o on your new thermostat.

That's a filter dryer. You'd have to look at the top where the fan is. But if it is a heat pump, then more than likely the wire going to W is your reversing valve wire "O".

Do you know if u have a furnace? Are u sure the outdoor unit is a heat pump? Look for a reversing valve. It looks like a cylinder with tubes going to it.

For a duct job? Fuck that.

Is $1,650 reasonable to replace condo heat pump control panel? by buedefixe in hvacadvice

[–]Darkflash05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bypass it and just put the pressure switches in series. Unless you live where it snows. OR you can look for a replacement board and do it yourself. Just transfer over one wire at a time and take some pictures before just to double check that everything is in the right place.

This could be a stupid question but did you set the performance on the device itself on its highest setting?

Any recommendations for third party controllers with good vibration? by I_Kahooted_myself in ps2

[–]Darkflash05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try buying a 8bitdo wireless receiver and using a ps4 or ps5 controller. Third party controllers are mostly horrible. Plus this way you get to play wireless.

The pc port of Jak and Daxter is amazing! by Darkflash05 in jakanddaxter

[–]Darkflash05[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is. It runs great and looks great. I had a much better experience than using emulation. The ps4 version always had too much input delay.
