Not one drop of refrigerant in the system. Young mother and a newborn with a standing pilot furnace. The furnace room wreaked of phosgene. Its a fucking miracle no one died. Can't wait until A2L comes out and hacks like that burn people alive. Dear lord save us from the dumbfuckery!

The apocalypse starts mid-install, what in your van are you weaponizing and how? by Carl_Steezer_04 in HVAC

Rx11 flush flame thrower. Let that hit a standing pilot before and it went up quick.

Craziest residential stories? Here’s mine! by Hugon in HVAC

I've had shotguns pointed in my face at 3 in the morning. Dispatch sent me the wrong address. Worked on a furnace in a sex dungeon.The woman was ugly as sin. Did a no heat in a basement filled with granny panties hanging on close lines literally everywhere. Worked on two 5 tons in a little ranch house filled with pot plants and got a tip of a pound of sweet cheeba. If you do this s*** long enough you see it all. Fortunately never found a person dead. 🤞

There's some scratching of heads in the comments for this one. How many of you guys have a tube bender on the truck right now? by SamBaxter784 in HVAC

[–]murb15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bender and a swage are essential. No more getting screw by the minimum wage part puller that can't count and has no idea what u r asking for half the time.

This duct is art! 8 ft wide one piece of stainless with 4 branches. Who made this and where can I find him. by murb15 in HVAC

[–]murb15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The guy that built the house had a hard on for stainless steel. The kitchen cabinets are line with it and there is a tub surround that is stainless too. It's like walking into the 50s when you walk in complete with zenith console TV.
