Furnace HVAC Plumbers can Kill People from Carbon Monoxide

Your Furnace, Plumber or HVAC man may not be properly cleaning or tuning up your system. They may not be performing the needed draft or combustion testing. You may have high CarbonMonoxide in your exhaust fumes.

I never planned on a second reply, but what you wrote simply adds fuel to my fire.

Pointing out how many subscribers and views I have seems most important to you, I guess I should have known that. Making videos is not part of my business.

Kindly continue going to that class, pay attention, and maybe even bring the teacher an apple.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

@megaburp777 For all others who read these comments. I will reiterate, you must perform combustion analysis on all fossil / gas fuel furnaces and water heaters as part of maintenance/cleaning. If your furnace man is not combustion certified and does not have a calibrated combustion analyzer, send him home. ITS THAT SIMPLE.

Carbon Monoxide = BAD. Making a video where you act like a professional yet making incorrect statements = More BAD.

Safety should be the primary concern of any company, do your homework, and check references. But, just like having an annual health exam does not mean you can't get very ill, the same is true with anything burning gas. Don't ignore it, don't take it for granted, and by all means, make sure you have at least one carbon monoxide detector in your home.

@megaburp777 Mr. megaburp777 with no subsrcibers and only 1500 views on your channel, tell me what is wrong ? The only people that do not like this vidoe are HVAC guys who are not CO cumbustion certified. I take a class every year. The teacher of my class loves this video because it makes HVAC guys go back to school and stop killing people.

best line on my 3 day course lol enough said

@04xcmustang Thank you.

You are an absolute moron. Being a liscensed refrigeration mechanic and liscenced gas fitter I can say that there are some who perform work like you say but they are few and far between. Just trying to scare people with this video to serve your own needs. Fyi I laughed out loud when you talk about proper testing tools only to see you holding that outdated pos meter. You are an idiot once again

As an hvac technician, I find some of your information useful. I aiso found your comments about the hvac industry unjustified. It is my opinion that you have to discredit people to make you feel better about your shortcomings. I have heard more about lame home inspectiors than hvac techs.. I'd like to know where you get your facts about the hvac industry. You are so full of shit that your eyes are brown.

And yes, I do know how to use a combustion analyzer.

[megaburp777]

I had to read some of the old posts about your video, and it appears you are a home inspector and not a person in the heating industry?

Had I known, I never would have responded as I did.

But since we are both on the dance floor.. let's dance a little.

I don't need to trash my auto mechanic to teach my kids about when they need new brakes in their car. Carbon Monoxide is scary enough, knowing about how to detect it, is life saving information. That would be a nice focus. megaburp@aol.com

Oh I am sorry I didn't read your whole comment. Now I see that your goal was nothing more than a ploy to gain viewers of your stupid video. The number of views is based on you trashing an admirable profession. We don't knock the squeegee out of your hand when your pumpin our gas. So ....

[hvacmoose]

That is what I said dufus.

[hvacmoose]

Carbon Monoxide is only present in incomplete combustion you idiot. Can you say aldehyde or do you actually only get your info from a 3 day seminar taught by someone who makes money on seminars not actually performing service on hvac equipment. You are moron.

[jpdaddygid]

A little bit of knowlege is dangerous. he took a 3 day seminar and now is more of an expert than a trained technician lol. WTF ever dumbass.

wow, where to start...

well at :25, :38, and 1:02, your draft hole is in a bad location. Needs to be at least 1 ft from draft hood and any elbow, typ 1 ft past the 1st elbow is the rule.

At 1:11 you drill into PVC. this is a sealed comb. system, you NEVER drill PVC!

At 1:02 you are trying to get an undiluted CO reading from your DHW, tough angle to get a probe into the throat and into each turbulator.

At 1:20 "don't patch hole" ?! yeah, you do.

For that matter CO is lighter than air. stain?
