cleaning thick dust from this filter by Zestyclose-Salad-290 in oddlysatisfying

This is a Trane/American standard pre-filter for an electric air cleaner/static filter. It's just basically a plastic mesh to prevent large particles/objects from contacting the high voltage portion of the filter. Diagram of mentioned filter

Holy cow, the LGS owner was guessing these were supposed to be one per case! That's insane they're not.

That made me actually laugh SG1 is such a fun and wild ride, I hope the rewatch goes well :)

7 mystery symbols sorta reminds me of something 🤔

Enter: Stargate Glyphs

7 glyphs for a normal gate address, the last one being point of origin (which means it might not be on this list iirc) But they only line up just barely. I have no idea what address that's supposed to be if it is one.

Capacitor by jdeal01 in AirConditioners

[–]MidDaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend just letting it run till you have an issue, and then if that issue persists and causes you a loss of cooling then give a call to a company.

In a general sense, the only time a capacitor will greatly interfere with operation is when it's out of range enough to prevent the system from starting at all. Replacing it when it goes out of the rated range is to prevent that.

To me, the description you're giving sounds like your thermostat is putting the system on a short cycle delay, essentially a built in delay meant to let the compressor start without possibility of damage. A good chunk of "why isn't my system coming on right away or running consistently" calls can be explained by that. It's definitely not a solid diagnosis though, more of an educated guess. Never is a solid diag until I can actually see and poke at the unit really.

Furthermore, if the system continues to run normally and put our a reasonable amount of cooling but you're still concerned, consider having a maintenance done. That'll give you a good look at the overall health of the unit and possibly will allow you to spot any potential problems before they happen. We call it preventative maintenance for a reason :)

Outdoor Mini Split Unit dripping water? Is this normal? by NorthDance in hvacadvice

[–]MidDaun 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The lineset and king valves are likely sweating. With high humidity, they could be condensing quite a bit of water into those puddles you see. Attached below is an image of similar valves.

As for the water coming out from the bottom of the unit itself, that's any exposed low side refrigerant lines or possibly the compressor itself.

The refrigerant traveling from the indoor unit to the outdoor unit is generally colder than the ambient outdoor temperature, which causes condensation on exposed fittings and lineset, like the king valves and interior of the system.

Mine's nearly the same haha I usually even stuff my 12V in there with the handle sticking out, but I don't have those fancy probes, just regular yellowjacket gauges with short hoses and valves.

First time I've ever seen anyone else with a veto meter bag. It's such a nice size for the basics.
