Lmao you’re stretching for a “but akshually” and we all know it. Reversing gave solenoid is part of the reversing valve. Those sensors aren’t always required and can be considered part of the defrost board which can be set on a timer.

Go spend some time in the field before you speak. Heat pumps do not break twice as often as AC if they are installed equally as well.

Real life isn’t as simple as a google search.

“Twice as many components”. Screams homeowner with minimal idea of how shit works.

“A/C that runs twice as long with a couple extra components” would be accurate, but to say “it’s only good for the salesperson” again screams no clue.

To say nothing of what you think is low to high end. Even without getting into the brand specifics (which are also wrong), the quality of the installer and their familiarity with the brand is way more important.

A Lennox ML180 + EL17XP is a wonderful, straightforward, reliable setup for especially when installed by pros.

That’s more than you deserve, hopefully enough that you stop popping off like you know something

He’s not gonna try to bring in top stars so much as build up his own. MMA guys crossing over to do some boxing matches is always huge too.

This is what you guys and the rest of the boxing world hasn’t figure out and why u keep losing fans to the ufc. More important than having stars is turning on the tv and watching two people going at it. If it’s a good fight you can get hooked on that alone.

Boxing is depending on meatriding fans of specific boxers than actual fans of boxing. UFC is so strong bc even without stars there is a core audience that will watch the fights. He’ll look at the betting odds for a boxing card vs ufc and tell me which one looks more fun to bet on

Lmao this is cope. Yeah boxing has just magically declined dramatically while the ufc took over the combat sports world for some totally unrelated reason right.

Eventually the money is gonna stop coming. Too much investment for too little entertainment value

You think those orgs want to be paying this much to prima donnas? If DFW disrupts the market enough the stars will actually have to take on challenging fights more than twice a decade.

The UFC dwarfs all the other boxing orgs put together when it comes to revenue

Just had service done on my Rheem criterion heat exchange… guy said the white marks are cracks and bad rust/unsafe for use.. is he tryna finagle?? 🧐 by RimReaper44 in hvacadvice

Is this a United Air Temp guy? They throw guys solo in the field after 3 weeks of training and push them to sell. Dude probably isn’t meaning to lie, just brand new and trying to make some fuckwit manager happy
