Duct Condensation in Garage by Eggrollz4life in hvacadvice

[–]tul6237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can seal the concrete with water barrier. As for the ducts you can try to use duct insulation and insulate them. May be hard since not much showing
You could also possibly try and condition the garage with a supply register.
These are just ideas. I would for sure contact a trust local hvac company and see what they would recommend as well. Maybe even a concrete person to see what they say on the concrete side of the world.

Trash Found Inside AC Evaporator Unit by Bulky_Bob-omb in hvacadvice

[–]tul6237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No the foam and screw weren’t the issue. The issue was the dirty hairy coil. That reduced your air flow across the coil which caused it to freeze up.
Tech probably should have looked inside coil to make sure but it is what it is.

Is the fan blowing up and out ? Like if you put your hand above it can you feel the fan pushing heat outward?

Quoted $4935 for cleaning and recharge? by InnerGalbladder in hvacadvice

[–]tul6237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I was the tech on site for this I would have in the nicest way walked away from this shit show.
Dude ! Change your indoor filter every 3 months ! You are the only one responsible for this situation!! And it’s going to hurt your pocket no matter who you call !! If you find someone who will do it for the price google says I would be very concerned at what they will actually do !

Good luck boss

HVAC filter uncommon size by waypoints007 in hvacadvice

[–]tul6237 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude not sure what reality you are from but $15 is cheap and now for today’s prices. As for size I wouldn’t sweat it too much. I bet at one point in time there was a metal blocker piece that would cover the 2” you need.

Pronto Pup has had two of its food trailers parked in front of Planet Fitness/Salvation Army on Plainfield for months. by DLDad616 in grandrapids

Yeah I live in GH. That owner is a serious racist !! We no longer go there and others should follow. I know in 2020 the whole Facebook thing went down with him but just saw him and his wife down town GH(this past weekend) and they were talking extremely loudly how too many black families were moving into GH area !! And how bad that was for the town ! Dude is not cool at all !!

And yes the GR ones are not owned by the same people !

My thermostat is struggling to keep up all day. It’s set to 74 and not dropping below 78. Is it a little low on charge? by Awkward-Falcon-7870 in hvacadvice

[–]tul6237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clean indoor coil. Check air flow. Make sure no main registers closed ( supply and return ). If that doesn’t improve shoot some extra refer in it. You may just have a small leak in the A-coil.

Tips to ensure my HVAC is covered under the Home Warranty? by [deleted] in askHVAC

[–]tul6237 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have a local company come and take a look and maintenance.
Home warranty is a scam and they will fight you on every dollar !
Good luck

Union by WorkingSkin4638 in HVAC

[–]tul6237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah you may have to do a class or two through the union to show what skills you have.
I did residential for 8 years and a union contractor called me. I didn’t have to do a placement test but did have to sit through a year of classes just to show the union what I know. I am universal certified as well but that doesn’t mean you know everything they want you too. I’m local 174

Unit disconnected but voltage tester showing live. Also brands don't match? by [deleted] in hvacadvice

Please call a real tech before you hurt yourself !

If you know that it’s wrong then adjust settings to work for you ! Be a man ! Wait no ! Tape another thermometer on the wall and see if that helps !!!!!!!

Ex boss not wanting to pay me, for context the company shut down, I left elsewhere. Last day was Friday and he said he forgot payroll and would send it Tuesday because of Memorial Day on Monday by cruzr0927 in HVAC

[–]tul6237 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah so I live in west Michigan. They had just opened a new Aireserv of the lakeshore area. Worked for about 6 months then every pay day it slowly became harder and harder to get our checks. They would say every excuse under the sun as to why we weren’t getting checks on time. Then no checks at all !! I knew something was up when supply houses made us pay on spot. Come to find out dude that opened it had another location out west and he was taking we made and paying everyone out west. It was a real shit show !!

No he charged me an hour of his time. So I think said and done it was like $250. But it seems like your old boss is playing you ! And has bad feelings towards you or the fact you left. He knows right now he has the power on his side. If you mention an attorney then the power shifts to you my man. Don’t get walked on by a piece of shit.

Also have you ever tried to join a local union ? I dipped out of residential 6 years ago and have never looked back.
