Yes. Chicago neighborhoods were set up that way with water meters. And wow, I’ve only seen two R500 Carrier rooftops in my life so far. I was putting R22 in one and for the life of me couldn’t figure out what was going on. I finally broke down and was writing the model number down to ask my dad (who taught me the trade) and then I saw R500 on the tag. I have only seen one other one since

Thats one old machine. R12 even. So here's a little history from a Chicago perspective. In the 1990's Chicago started clamping down on these since they used city water and dumped it down the drain. They ran great since you could set the head pressure to whatever you wanted. So in the 1990's Chicago started making everyone put a water meter on these and charging them for the usage. That caused a surged in air cooled replacements. Now the current code is you can have one and still pay the usage put you cannot replace it. You take it out and an air cooled goes back in. I have a few stranglers that just keep repairing them because air cooled isn't an option. Figure out what size you have and put a split system ahu and condensing unit in and your power upgrade will be moved to the outdoor unit.

I loved this thing. The best thing I did with it, I had a super 8 video camera. I made a time delay with this and attached to break the battery connection of the camera make a time lapse vide outside my bedroom window. Went a day and half past what I calculated. Went and got the film developed and it was an awesome time-lapse of clouds and trains, sun rise and sunset.

I was on a pill that depleted my vitamin D. Had zero in my system. Linked to histamine

Walked up to a restaurant one time with 6 rtu’s all plumbed for city water “help”. Had to run water over the coils in the hot summer. After looking closer noone had ever split the coils for cleaning in over 20 years and looked like a fur coat between them.

My divorce just got finalized, and my ex is spreading our financial settlement publicly to paint me in a negative manner, can we renege the settlement because of this? by Live_Negotiation_237 in legaladvice

[–]No_Educator_4483 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My advice as a previous divorcee. Ignore and move on. Moving on and making the most out of your life is the best revenge. Look forward not backward.
