I decided to do a leak search before I even turned this one on. And I wasn’t disappointed.

Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe speaker discusses the frequent failure of Goodman evaporator coils in a large apartment complex. He highlights a recurring pattern of leaks in aluminum coils, noting that these units often fail within just two years. The speaker emphasizes his refusal to install this brand due to poor reliability and the long-term costs associated with choosing cheaper equipment.
That's what it is, coils are junk.
I can tell this one's been replaced before.
We're going to need to replace it again.
There's probably
70 apartments
out here,
and they're all Goodman's except one
that we've replaced.
I get called out here almost every day,
and 99% of the time it's
because of low freon.
And 99% of those coils
are a leaking evaporator coil,
and all of these are aluminum coils.
you just think with
an aluminum coil
with an aluminum
coil it's not gonna
leak as bad as
copper would would it but it does
it's not worse these goodmans
were bad about leaks before they
started adopting aluminum coils
now it seems like they're even
worse i had one customer i tried to
sell him a Ruud and then he kept insisting
that i give him a goodman to put in because it costs less
and I ended up losing the customer over it
because I refused I refused to do it
I just I don't want
my company name associated
with installing Goodman's
this one was
leaking pretty
good I'm gonna try
to get back in
the next couple
days and replace that coil
one last comment about
these particular Goodman
systems I'll leave it
26 degrees 27 degrees C
superheat my comment is about
these the newer
ones have like a little 45 on it
so it's not so close to this lip right here
those things are just a pain in the butt to get on and off
I got to looking at my records on that
particular apartment
and that evaporator coil is the ripe old age of two years old
to be replaced I know sometimes it happens to everybody
but it seems like
with that particular name brand all
the time this complex they built it they
tried to go cheap on the air conditioners
and now they're having to pay for it.
