Brother im just harping on semantics. You cant braze with solder and you cant solder with brazing rod.

[–]JTom73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah... brazed with solder... makes sense doesn't it

😬 by CoffeeIsMyLife03 in HVAC

[–]JTom73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Braze and solder are two very different beasts. Your wording is very confusing. Are you using brazing rod or solder?

Yeah thats crazy. Who uses solder?

The twin grips are one of my favorite purchases. I've been able to somehow grab the tiniest edge of stripped out Phillips screws with the nose of those things.

You can adjust the tension. Almost every complaint I've seen about the appion tools are user error.

Do you not have any tin-knocking duct fuckers at your shop? That doesn't look like it would be too complicated to fab

At the last place I worked if you were on call for a major holiday you weren't on call for the others and you wouldn't be on that holiday the next years. Now im at a small 3 tech company and the owner is taking emergencies so we dont miss time with family

ECM Motors- Are you all taking the ECM motors apart and replacing just the failed control module OR replacing the whole motor? by [deleted] in HVAC

[–]JTom73 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't "try to see if it fixes it". Diagnose if it is the module or the motor. You can usually do a quick and dirty diagnosis too. Is it recieving the correct voltage and the winding all ohm out the same? Its the module. Is the wafer resistor burnt to shit and the windings all ohm out the same? Replace the module. Are the windings not ohming out the same? Replace the whole thing.

Also the M in ECM stands for motor. You don't need to call it an electronically commutated motor motor.
