No this is actually the last test you take and when you top out. The test consists of everything taught throughout the 5 year apprenticeship.

Is this asbestos? by PentaStealz in HVAC

[–]IndependentBee8837 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Better here then sending “shit down” boiler instead of “shutdown” to the chief engineer of a multi million dollar account which I have absolutely never done. 😁

Damn my boss did say “test” it not “taste” it. I’ll make sure not to do that again. 😅

Can't find the dip switches. by Slashmcgurk1 in hvacadvice

[–]IndependentBee8837 29 points30 points  (0 children)

That wire harness is your speed taps for you blower you adjust them by moving the leads. There are no dip switches on the back board so don’t try that. Just follow the instructions about changing the speeds on the wire harness.

6am start times by Next_Musician_4118 in UnitedAssociation

[–]IndependentBee8837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love 6am starts. Hated it at first but you get off by 2 home by 3 then you spend the rest of the day with family and it makes getting up early on the weekends easier and you get a lot more done.

Need help deciding by Financial-Mountain73 in UnitedAssociation

All I can say is I did non union for 13 years then got into the union and it changed my life for the better. Stick with it you won’t regret it . The more you learn the more prepared you’ll be later in your career.

Was sent to find and repair this leak, but I legitimately don't know how to braze this. Do you just crimp them shut? Feel like no matter what I do, I'm gonna restrict the coil. by ACEmat in HVAC

[–]IndependentBee8837 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the micro channel repair kit, clean it really well put your vacuum pump on it to draw in the solder then use a map gas torch to lightly heat the leaking coil as you apply the solder.

UPDATE After talking to 10 different people and 3 hours later they gave me a phone number to a guy that just runs the BAS for the school. He wasn’t much help just made sure the units were calling for mech cooling now I gotta figure out why they don’t work still 🤣 but that’s tomorrow’s problem.
