A water leak call, that turned into something more complex. A leaking schrader core, revealing a leak detector that is trash. And pictures of our latest changeout.

Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe narrator manages a busy day of HVAC service calls and the finalization of a five-ton three-phase system installation. The video follows the technician as he diagnoses high head pressure issues, performs leak detection on a residential unit, and provides updates on a large-scale suspended system project.
Today we got a lot to do.
We're finishing up that five-ton three-phase system. I hope to get
at least some pictures of that for you
and I got about four of the calls this morning
but I'm gonna try to dedicate most of my afternoon
to helping those guys finish up on that
installation.
So come along with me
we'll catch a few calls.
Oh that's wet.
I drained up somewhere
else but one big trap right
there i'm gonna vacuum that out
and see if we get anything
just
knew
they
had a
water
problem
they
didn't
realize
that
they had
extremely
high
head
pressure
they didn't realize there was some kind of restriction
so i gave them an estimate to
brush the coil replace some of the armor plates
and put a piston inside instead of a TXV i didn't get
approval right away but i think i will if i get
the job i'll bring you along and we can compare
with the previous
pressures
that line set
in there i
was not sure it was
running oh my word
i'll see this they got
a hole in the side
of their house you can
tell what used to be here
that's
an
old
train
panel
before
i
hook
any
gauges
to
that
I
think
we're
gonna
do a
quick
leak
search
Explain
to
me
why
my
leak
detector
didn't
pick
that
up
Because
that
is
clearly
bubbling
That
one is possible we could have
fixed it by tightening it up
but um it's so so easy to
replace
these
We
might
as
well
replace
it
let's
see
if we
got it
nope
got it
Little
setup
with
my probes don't work
so good for charging charges extremely
slow charging it with this one goes a
whole lot faster
still i'm keeping
an eye on it super
heat 11 degrees
high efficiency
units have a
higher stuff too and this one's stuck around one
so i'm gonna try to add just a little bit more
and we'll go from there all right what i got out
of that call is that particular leak detector
is worthless that is trash i do have another one
but it is the same name brand i've used it for
years and it has worked but right now after what just happened
with that one i don't have a whole
lot of confidence
to the next one all right guys
this is the suspended five ton system
three-phase condenser outside that we've
been working on for the last couple of days
