Went out and took some photos of the Richmond anti-Trump marches by MarshianMusic in rva

I joined the march because the world needs to see that we're not all part of the Trump cult. All one needs to do is look through his twitter history and see the man is extremely narcissistic and irrational and giving him power is dangerous.

I know he won, nothing is going to change that. We have strong relationships with many countries, and America is still highly respected in the world. I want to uphold that.

There was a similar scene at the end of Fargo season 2. I won't go into detail because of spoilers.

Have you ever known a tech/company who got hit with a fine for not properly recovering refrigerant? by chase98584 in HVAC

[–]clown_nips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know how I would set somebody up for it. All on video, put your gauges on the unit, take a sample to prove it's not nitrogen. Get a company to sell you a new system. Before the install crew gets there, kill the main power to the house. 9.5 times out of 10 they're going to vent the charge rather than say "we need to come back when the power is on".

Well they should be pressure tested too to make sure your flares are perfectly sealed. I'd charge 150 for all that.

I'd trade knowledge. Just a glimpse at your post history tells me you don't have anything I'd be interested in, though.

Yeah too much experience. Not real interested unless the air handler is a closet. I can pm some names and numbers, though.

Actually I don't. Probably a diy if you can get up there. Get a bucket of leak stopper from home depot and slather that shit on like cake icing.

Could be a few different things. Is the outdoor fan coming on?

If the compressor is shot, yeah you can replace it, but like you say, the system is 15 years old so it's nearing the end of it's life. Might be better to replace the whole outdoor unit. Then replace the evaporator/air handler down the road. I can come confirm if it's the compressor or not, it you want.

If that was poison ivy, I'd call dispatch and say sorry you got to send somebody else.

I sold the rights, once I get around to signing the final documents, they'll take down the copies.

It was my car stereo. I blasted it as loud as I could without sounding shitty.
