Hey Fritz, Love your videos, nice work..... I'm curious and was wondering why some Heat Pumps I've seen are on legs or supports and some just sit flat on the pad? What are these legs made of and how are they attached to the heat pump? Are they bolted to the unit and the pad?

@bobrub Hey Bob !!!

Whats up my Friend !!!

All Heat Pumps have a Defrost Cycle (Timed , or On Demand) , when the Heat Pump

Defrosts there are a series of Holes in the Bottom of the units where the Defrost Water Can Escape !!!

People who Own Heat Pumps should make sure these Holes are Clear of Debris !!!

It really depends on your Area as to Having the Legs , it is Code Here that we need to be off the ground 4" to 6" because of Snow !!!

We call them Snow Legs here !!!

Thank You very much !

@fritzhvac Hey Fritz,

What are the snow legs made of and how are they attached to the heat pump? Are they bolted to the unit and the pad? Can they be added to a heat pump that's already installed and in use?

@bobrub Sorry Bob !!!

I didn't answer your whole question !!!

Got Busy !!!

A strong Resin Plastic , the ones I get have a Grove in them and fit right into the bottom of my American Standard Units , they also have a double side adhesive strip with them if the grooves will not fit unit !! They are not Bolted to either Unit or Pad !!!

They can be added afterward but thats tricky , you risk crimping Lineset !!!

I just did a maintenance, and cleaned all the junk out of the bottom of a rheem unit last week. It had bearings going out of the blower motor. I was back today to replace the blower, and the landscapers had filled up the outdoor unit with mulch!!! Grrrrr!!!
