I thought someone stole my gauges out of my truck awhile ago, didn’t notice for 2 days either. Went back to my last install and sure enough there they were still hooked up with clamps and everything. Customer said he thought they were just part of the newer units so he didn’t think to call.
LOL that's funny. Imagine systems having their own gauges built into them. Same though. I had asked my apprentice as always if he got everything. He's like 'I think so.' And then I didn't need to use my gauges for a couple days.
I just want to distance myself from this HVAC_Sam. My tik tok handle is sam_the_hvac_man, but I don't sign my units on the outside...I do it inside the panel like a normal person
I did it this way cuz there was already a good two feet between the wall and the AC. I have another install tomorrow that'll be panel facing out cuz it's in a flower bed.
That's usually something the customer decides if they want to pay for it or not. It's not something the installer has an option to leave out or include.
Yeah. It was the last call that day and as always I asked him if he got everything and he's like 'i think so.' And then the rest of my calls for a day or two were plumbing calls or ones i didn't need my gauges on.
If I hired a carpenter to replace my front door and he signed it, he'd loose teeth over that. A tile guy signing his tile, same shit. You are an asshole with an ego. Stop signing other peoples property.
THE sam spicer!? Your work is great and you can sign your name on whatever the fuck you want, fuck the haters. Most homeowners don't have a clue about their filter let alone your signature on an access panel.
I left a set of gauges on a unit with a nitrogen holding charge after a rough in, returned for a service call after installers had completed a few months prior. Gauges still hooked up, definition of not my job I guess. 🤷🏻
Strap the lineset to the building with pvc conduit 2 hole straps either 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 depending on lineset size and insulation thickness. Make sure the liquid line is not touching the brick.

OH MY GOD
He gets bonus points for consistency. He also signed his pump.
Why no tape on the lineset?
Thanks. 6 ft electrical whip barely reached. Anyone know if they make longer ones?
He didn’t leave it behind. He was being proactive!
Apparently. Now I have two gauge sets lol

Like a considerate person
You can buy liquid tight in a roll, cut to length, and run wire through it
That's what I'd been doing to make my romex electrical whips
Liquid tight rolls are the best. Usually I'll use one roll per install since I almost always run the stat wire in liquid tight.
Shouldn’t you be double checking you have all your tools before leaving the site, instead if blaming your apprentice? You forgot them too.
THE SPICE STRIKES AGAIN!!!!
Every day bro
OH NO not the label man again
Yepper
Sign the inside of the panel
Yeah how narcissistic do you have to be to sign your name openly like this on something someone spent thousands of dollars for
Dude why would ever sign the outside of the cover instead of the inside?
Inconsiderate
Ho-lee shit. Connections on the house side instead of an extra 3 feet of of line set. You keep posting this shit. We’ll get you sorted eventually.
I did it this way cuz there was already a good two feet between the wall and the AC. I have another install tomorrow that'll be panel facing out cuz it's in a flower bed.
Where’s the line set cover mate?
That's usually something the customer decides if they want to pay for it or not. It's not something the installer has an option to leave out or include.
and thats why I walk around the jobsite 1 more time before I leave LOL
This OP is making me leave this sub. STOP SIGNING OTHER PEOPLES PROPERTY!
My apprenti have their own tools.
My helpers only have screwdrivers. No gauges or power tools.
Dude probably left em on purpose, to stop dealing with those long ass hoses.
Do you install your new filter driers near the air handler on change-outs like a good boy?
Amana has them factory installed in the condenser
Any thought on installing an Amana unit (reliability?)
Decent units easy to get parts for and easy to work on. They have better warranty than Goodman.
Sam get a customize decals will ya. Like the AMG hand build engine with their signature on it.
Where can I order that at?
The apprentice left Your tools?? Lol
Yeah. It was the last call that day and as always I asked him if he got everything and he's like 'i think so.' And then the rest of my calls for a day or two were plumbing calls or ones i didn't need my gauges on.
I thought YOU were the apprentice lol. You seek approval like one
Not sure why you’re downvoted…you’re not wrong
I've been doing this for 3 years bro. I'm the top technician at my company.
If I hired a carpenter to replace my front door and he signed it, he'd loose teeth over that. A tile guy signing his tile, same shit. You are an asshole with an ego. Stop signing other peoples property.
Stop writing your damn names on the outside of the unit, who the fuck raised yall?
THE sam spicer!? Your work is great and you can sign your name on whatever the fuck you want, fuck the haters. Most homeowners don't have a clue about their filter let alone your signature on an access panel.
So fuck the home owners? Wtf?
Autograph looking good!
Do those Amana's come with the filter dryer inside the condenser? I don't see one on the liquid line.
It is inside the condenser cabinet
Could be inside
I assume the apprentice bought you a new gauge set?
I left a set of gauges on a unit with a nitrogen holding charge after a rough in, returned for a service call after installers had completed a few months prior. Gauges still hooked up, definition of not my job I guess. 🤷🏻
I thought you were going to say he left some of your tools inside the case of the unit.
Now checking my condenser to see if the installer signed it.
Did he?
Strap the lineset to the building with pvc conduit 2 hole straps either 1-1/4 or 1-1/2 depending on lineset size and insulation thickness. Make sure the liquid line is not touching the brick.
If I hired you and you signed my unit without covering my lineset with gutter or line hide I'd kick your ass
Friends don’t let friends install Amana/Goodman
Why is it only condensers?
On AC installs I just do the outdoor unit. Apprentice does the evaporator coil.
It is summer, no?
Imagine posting exposed lineset completely unwrapped and being proud of it lmao. Ever heard of speedichannel? Holy shit
Is that like the half top of a rain gutter cover to hide the lineset?
Got a question, my old capicitor has a ground wire and the new one doesn't. does this matter? Do I need to ground the new capicator?
Beat his ass.
Yeah...clean install but stop signing your name. You have a small dick or something?
