 Inco, F.A.O. We are go. Capcom. We're go fly. This is Houston. We are go for launch. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tonight's entertainment. Hey everybody, how's it going? Good Sunday evening everyone and thanks for joining us. We're hopefully on time. It looks like maybe two minutes off, but we started the music before 8.30, right? So that counts, right? Sure. So, how's everyone doing out there tonight? I just wanted to make sure we give props to all my awesome viewers out there. Pepsi, Cola, Randy Lazz, Huse Man, everything HVACR. Hey, we've got Ike in here. Samuel. Randy, Samuel, Wild West, HVAC, Pepsi's in here. Chris, Volt. Yeah, we got the crew in here tonight. Yeah, that's awesome. That's really awesome, guys. How are you guys all doing? Now, you said Samuel was going to start his own channel there. Yeah, Samuel. I saw that you put something in there that you have your own HVAC channel. I think that's really cool. So, yeah, if you could put that in the comments, what your HVAC channel name is again, Twisted Candle Company. Hello. How's it going? Hey, Twisted. What's going on, man? Welcome back. This is show number two for you, you said. So, awesome. I didn't disappoint. Hopefully too much there. That's awesome. So, is there any way we can put this up there so that I don't have to look down to see? No. I don't like that. Sorry. Yeah. So, now instead of people actually seeing me look at the camera. But you know, what you can do is we can go here and we can go to comments. Look at that. Actually, no, we can't. I lost. Sorry. Wow. I figured out the audio people. So I sent an invite. After how many hours? Hey, how do we fix things? We tear it apart and we figure it out. Can we consult YouTube videos? Well, that's what the news, HVAC, our contractor's news magazine has said right here, says YouTube gives rise to new DIY crowd marketing opportunities. So guess what? I am not a DIY. So I may give a lot of information out when I do it, but by no means am I trying to swindle away our work because I don't know about you guys, but we can't find anybody to hire. I mean, just getting people to show up is a challenge in itself, let alone getting somebody to take your job because they watch a couple of YouTube videos or even 120 of them, whatever. So I mean, I think it's useful that people are kind of getting things on it and you know, they can double check things against the video, which is what they were mentioning in the article here that basically, you know, they're telling their guys if you can't verify more than one location for things that you've heard, you may want to take extra searches somewhere else to make sure that information is correct. So that's also a lot of times the reason why I say whenever I'm doing electrical and things like that, that this will kill you and I'm not responsible if you decide to do it. So just one of them things, you know, that's his public service announcement for everybody. Mirrors, Rick. It's mirrors. Indeed. It's mirrors. We don't have time for mirrors. He's man. No smoking mirrors here, man. I am who I am and I am what I am. You look awfully thirsty, babe. I am thirsty. Thank you. Why don't you get yourself a nice cold drink of water? Absolutely. So she thought I shouldn't use my cup again. So I mean, it's kind of a staple at this point. I don't see anything wrong with it. It just means you're number one. So, you know, and you guys are all number one in our book. Absolutely. I mean, we wouldn't be doing this if we didn't love it. So I he asked about the snoring pugs. Well, they were upstairs in their bed. Yeah. The Frenchies over there on the chair just snoozing away and being good. Yeah. Well, I, I don't know. It's surprising. Thanks. Look, Arizona. Thank you. You're number one in our book. We're glad that we're number one in yours. I think that's just a backhanded finger. Like you're number one because I can't see that. I don't know. There could be fingers there. You need your bifocals, babe. Probably do. Or your readers or whatever. Readers, bifocals, whatever. So we got some new people here. Juan, I've not seen that name before. David, he's like, WTF is this? Well, this is our idea of just being on here, being silly. We got some folks from Riverside, California on. Let's see what else. Yeah. We got some variety tonight. Well, what, what, what the flip this is basically is an opportunity to go over any of the videos that I posted, which this week I only could squeeze out one got behind and got just that one detector. When that detector video killed me, I recorded it at one place for the background. I thought it looked kind of nice and I didn't like it. I felt like I was rushing through the descriptions. And so I ended up rerecording it on Saturday yesterday. And before you know it, you spend a whole day doing it all over and cutting little things out to try to make it jump to the point and things like that. So what is this channel? Basically, this channel for the most part, for the most of the time, the videos pretty much are where you're going to get, you know, the entertainment from because otherwise we sit here and pretty much give each other a hard time. And we'll answer any questions that we get. Guess what? Someone did notice my new spectacles. Thank you, Huisman. Yes, they are new. I got myself a brand new pair of Kate Spade spectacles. So yes, thank you for noticing. They're quite feisty. Indeed. So they other ones were similar. They were bluish, but they had that kind of pattern to it. I think it looks like the lollipop. So you already have your first question, babe. All right. So someone said that they have the Detect Select. Would it be worth it to upgrade to the Tech 3? Well, it's why I showed on one of the last clips there. And I'm not sure why that showed up. I thought I had that closed out. Let's see if I can get that up here again. Oh, we got someone from Kissimmee. The Select, I had that. I bought it about a month and a half before it came out. And I had the Select prior to before having the H10. And basically I had missed quite a few leaks. I actually really upset me. One of the service guys at one of our other branches pulled out his H10G. Me not knowing anything. There's a G. The G. That's the power it up. Everybody swears that that is truly the absolute best one of all of them. And I had a 410A leak on a carrier or Lennox. I think it was a Lennox. And he was there less than about a minute and a half to three, four minutes. And I had already scanned every square inch of the freaking coil for that Select. Now granted, this is a Select. And they've changed the Select multiple times. That's why they call it Detect 3 because they changed it total three times. You know, you had the original heated diode, then you had the current one, then they added some extra features, blah, blah, blah, blah. Well, anyhow, he made me look like an idiot. And I wasn't very happy about it. So we had H10 set near PM. Nobody was using it. And that's when I took it in my truck and I started comparing them back and forth, back and forth. And the 410A was where the Select had such an issue with. And basically we had a lot of those formicary corrosion type coils out there that we were having a hard time finding the 410A. You know, we at this particular branch weren't selling a lot of 410. We were kind of like stragglers doing R22 because it was cheaper. We decided to sell on price instead of selling on quality. And basically, you know, I was just starting to run into more and more 410 stuff. And this is probably 12 years ago, something like that. And I started finding more and more and finally I just traded for the H10. But that's when I got rid of the Select. Well, Select seems like they did a couple upgrades. But anyhow, far as the Detect 3, my biggest complaint, like I said before, was the battery life. So they did me a favor because, you know, probably because I was doing the video and stuff like that. And they do have a two-year over-the-counter warranty. So if you buy it from a local supply house and then you take it back, something's not right, they swap it out for you over the counter if they sold it to you. And so basically they did a swap out for me. So in reality, yeah, I did pay for the Detect 3 because I, like I said, I bought in the Select just prior. I wasn't happy with the Select. Now, here's the thing. All the other service guys in my company, all they use is the Select. And here I am with this big monster brick H10 and everybody, you know, nobody ever really said nothing. But I was always, you know, I found every leak I usually was looking for. But that dog on battery in the H10, even when I put a new one in it, it would always go dead. And the, you know, the big thing, and I cut it out of this video when I did it, but you know, another big thing is the reach. The wand's short, you know, and where that one has a 15 to 18 inch reach, you're going to get into tight spots. And that's another thing that makes it better. And yes, the sensitivity on the Detect 3 is 0.03 versus 0.1. That combined with the better battery life and the better sensitivity, I think so. Because like I said, 450 is what it used to sell for and 450 is what they're selling it for now. Now, granted, I got that Select for like 320, 340-ish through, what is it? They always have a 20% to 15% off type sale every now and again. Through tech tools? No, through tech don't do that. They're a division of Granger, but they're not, you know, they don't advertise as Granger. They're out of Illinois. They got a Fox on there. I'm trying to remember. My mind goes blank when I try too hard. Foxy. There's some questions coming in, babe. All right. Yeah, it's very difficult to see that one from way over there. And I really feel like I'm doing wrong by looking over here. Carlos, wanted to know what type of tools you have on your back shelf there and those, the books. The books? Well, the Fluke meter is the meter I used to use for my generators before I got my Fluke 87.5. That is the 112. The meter to the right is a triplet. You know, you can get it off yourself, babe. 630. Well, I wouldn't want to, you know, disturb your fine organizational skills here. And triplet is based here, was based here in Ohio before they sold it to the Chinese. Basically, Ant Probe, then Ant Probe sold to Fluke. And they used to be one of the top meters. They were neck and neck with Simpson. So, and it looks a lot like a Simpson. And my mom worked there prior to me being born. So I actually had a replacement back case for it. And that was in a basement of a customer's house. And it was all muddy and dirty and nasty. And I told him the story and I said, Hey, you know, I'd really like to have that. Is there any way you would sell that to me? And he's like, you can have it. I'm like, okay, cool, man. Thank you. So basically that's what that is. And then I have a smart valve over here to the left, which just like most smart valves don't work. Then up here is one of the Cooper thermo thermometer, dual thermometer deals. I have one on my truck. That's a three input. That's a two. I was getting those for like next to nothing on eBay for like 25, 30 bucks or like non-grants is an older one. Those sell for like $300 or $250. And they're accurate to 0.3 degrees. And I'm a weirdo when it comes to accurate tools. Other than that, a mag flashlight, a mascot from the previous place I worked at, and some old heads from the very first field piece meter they ever came out, the true original stick meter. The green book is the book that I had in school. The warm, warm air heating climate control is the mother book I had in school. I never read them at all. So probably wouldn't have learned something there. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. The rest of the survival books and things like that. So blah. So. Thanks for asking. Now you know. And someone said I have a good catfish voice. Thank you. Lisa, it's not the Saturday night of Skit again. There were some other questions. Okay, so Pepsi was asking, how many times you've come up to leaking refrigerant on an HVAC or a refrigeration system? How many times? I mean, that's kind of like all the time, right? Quite often. I mean, they're always a little bit low. And you always figure sometimes you run into ones where the other guys didn't want to add anything because they'd have to look for the leak. And for some reason, nobody wants to look for leaks. So. Oh my gosh. Rick. He wants me to say, hey, hey, Pappy. Hey, Pappy. I don't know if that's what you're going for or not. Um, oh, let's see what else we've got. Oh, he went. So someone asked the select a CO2. The stratus is awesome in that he has both. And I remember you saying in your video, it doesn't the CO2 detection. Isn't that kind of like an upgrade or something additional module you can get or not? Yeah, it's another sensor just like that one. That's why they made it so easy to pull out because, you know, the previous select didn't have that option. They literally sold the CO2 dedicated to CO2 and then they sold the dedicated refrigerant. So with this detector, either one of them, far as I know from the way it was explained to me, and obviously this hasn't been really released. So I'm kind of like letting cats out of the bag because they're still getting all the UL approvals and stuff. He's spilling the tea. You know, the combustion leak detector, I mean that in itself is I think 140, 160 bucks. So, you know, the price of a sensor and now you can have that in, I think the T and detect three is already ready for it. Whereas the select because it was released sooner will probably need to have a software upgrade to be able to do it, which, you know, that's kind of, you know, may have been quiet time type information. I'm not certain, but, you know, the guy I've been talking with, he's a really cool guy. And, you know, we just talked about everything. I told him what things that, you know, I had questions about like the buttons are a little hard to push on stuff like that. I didn't understand if it was maybe mine was defective because like I said, my detect or my, my stratus that was sent to me was refurb because they're running at like half capacity because they're in New York, the communist state of New York where they don't allow them to work unless they're, you know, full-time, like absolutely have to be type thing. So a lot of them are working at home. So they didn't have a new one to send me, but it looked like brand new. So, and they got me that, you know, they didn't have to, but it's kind of a trade, you know, I bring the information to you guys and trade for it. So, but yeah. Um, someone made the comments about, um, Luis. He said he's new in the trade, trying to get involved in everything age, faculty found us somehow. So welcome. Sorry, you're here. We crawled out from under a rock. Welcome aboard. Um, let's see what else. And Louise, you'll love it, man. I mean, it's, it's a great field. If you're willing to work and put a little time in, it's going to be a rewarding career. Um, oh, Shannon said Zorro. Yeah, Zorro tools. There we go. Shannon's the man after my own, uh, thought, you know. Um, let's see. Oh, so health, health thing sage, what do you think of the ultrasonic leak detectors? Well, you actually have done a video on that. So, um, yeah. I did it on both of them. I did it on the goose neck and I did it on the, um, the original, they're both, uh, version threes. Um, far as I know, I think they're probably a little bit better than the infocons whisper. I have never tried the whisper, but, uh, I've, I've heard a lot of complaints on it, but like I said in my other video for the, the ultrasonic is you got to take the time to learn it. It's just like the H 10. I mean, you got to run the H 10 in manual mode. If you want the best sensitivity out of it, the ultrasonic is the same way. You've got to learn all the weird noises that you're going to hear because you'll hear fluorescent lights. You'll hear, uh, people walking. If people are going to be around you, clanging dishes and stuff. It's a different sound, but man, every time you think you heard a, you know, you, you think you got it. And then here was some person making noise and that I usually don't use it in the building unless some people are away from me. A lot of times if I, you know, I had to leak, uh, that I didn't show. And it was, I referenced in the video that it was so contaminated that the, it can basically zeroed out the sensor because it's so contaminated because it's trying to, trying to, uh, compare the refrigerant coming in versus what's in the body because it has a little filter in there and stuff. And, uh, it got too overwhelming. So, and then I tried the ultrasonic. I could hear the leak, but it couldn't find the leak. It was so loud. It was bouncing all over the place that it went in bubble. So I ended up having to drop the pressure all the way down to about 10 pounds before I could get it to bubble because otherwise it was blowing it off. And, uh, the ultrasonic, it was confused because hard surfaces bounce sound. And so it had a problem. And the stratus had a little bit of issue because it was coming out so hard and I couldn't hear it. I couldn't feel it, but it threw me for a loop. It took me a while to find that, truly narrow it down before I condemned it. I wanted to make sure I could find, maybe fix it or whatever. And it ended up being on the distributor tube. So, you know, if it's too strong of a leak, you know, you just start lowering. And I think that's why a lot of times they'll say start off low and work your way higher instead of trying to go balls of the wall and go super high. So, um, there was someone, uh, David asked if farts affect the diode. Farts affect the diode? Yeah, like, you know, probably talking about the, Oh, the heated diode. Um, I mean, it's possible. Yeah. I mean, I know the combustion detector picks up farts, no problem, which is methane. So it picks up actually really well. But not too much. I mean, granted, you gotta remember that heated diode is the size of your finger. That's also why it's so expensive compared to the little e-biddy ones that sell for 45, 50 bucks and, you know, burn up so easily. So it's pretty resilient. But like I said, you lose a little bit of sensitivity as it starts getting more and more hits. You know, if you go into a cooler that's so saturated and you're trying to narrow it down and you can narrow it down with that thing, but I'm sitting there thinking, good grief, you know, how badly my damage my sensor now while trying to do this. So that was where I kind of wanted to go back to the infrared, as use both. But like I said in the video, I'm using the Inficon stuff primarily most of the time. You know, it gets ready to go to work fast. The H10, I mean, it's great detector, but it takes almost a full two minutes to warm up. So Pepsi asked, this is a good question. What's the most common problem with backup generators that you come across? Batteries. Number one thing I tell people, every four years, replace the battery. You spent $3,500 to $6,500, $7,500 on a generator. What's 150 bucks for a battery? How many times I've been called out in the middle of the night for a flippin' battery it's dead? Well, it's a brand new generator. What do you mean I have to change the oil? What do you mean I have to like do something to it and maintain it? So I, you know, I was big into the generator thing prior to coming here and I've kind of like, I don't really care anymore. I don't really care for it. So, yeah. Here's another good question. Will the pro make the ultrasonic not needed? Or is the ultrasonic still have its use? Which I think you kind of answered that. I mean, the ultrasonic is, once you learn what you're listening to, definitely I feel like it has like that you wouldn't have found otherwise even with the H10, so. Yeah, I think I showed it. Yeah, if you watch the ultrasonic, I'm pretty sure at the end of the one, I'm thinking it's the one with the Gooseneck because I did two. I did a Gooseneck one and I did one with a little short nozzle, which I ended up showing at the end of the Gooseneck one. But I was in a Linux rooftop unit, I had four leaks in there and I could hear it and I even said it, you can find a leak as fast as you can hear sound. And yet the H10 right on top of it, it, you know, it went from beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. I mean, it wasn't like solid tone or nothing. I mean, it was just, you got to be sitting there going slow and listening for it. So I don't, the ultrasonic won't do all leaks. I mean, it won't do all leaks, but, you know, like Chris did a tryout on it and he didn't like it. I mean, so, I mean, it just, I don't use it often. It just, yeah, like I said, they even say in their own manual, it's got its own special application and you use it, you know, as you need just special applications. Outside leaks are really good, bearings, things like that. Um, so AD Electronic Teardowns thinks I have a sexy, flutie voice, which I find hilarious because I don't think it sounds that good at all. Um, let's see what, and Pepsi likes the sound effects. So yeah, we're using, we have a Rode Procaster. Is that what it is? Yeah, like they have so many, like Procaster Pro and it has, um, Rodecaster Pro. Rodecaster. Because you have Rodecaster, you have Procaster. They really screwed up when they decided to go with that. Yeah, they all have like the same names. They just rearranged all the words. But, um, and it basically is like a mixer and it has a bank of eight buttons and you can have different screams. So we've got over 70 sound effects on here. So that's a lot of fun. Yeah. Um, let's see. And I bought it before doing really the live streams. I mean, so it's kind of crazy because I basically, it's kind of like how I got into DJing. I like the equipment. So I bought the equipment and then started DJing after that. I mean, I had a mixer before. I even had, you know, the amplifiers and all that. And next thing you know, I slowly worked my way up. Whoa. So detecting Arizona, this is cool. So remember last week, he asked about the Wild Leg York units? Mm-hmm. We were trying to figure out what that was. So he said the unit he had a question on ended up having an electrical short and a bad defrost board and that he appreciates all the help from everybody. So that's kind of interesting. Who we have someone watching from Guyana? I have somebody that watches eventually from Turkey, which is kind of interesting because he doesn't, he watches the translation or whatever because I've watched it translated to English and surprisingly with my hillbilly accent and things like that. It does a fairly decent job. Of course, you know, it's Google on my phone. So they probably got me down Pat, but he's watching me in Turkey. I mean, that's really cool. I mean, granted, I've got people in Germany and all over the place, France. So yeah, it's really cool and it's humbling to hear that kind of stuff. You know, he was asking about the hoses that I used. You know, it's like, we don't have those over here. And I'm like, yeah, not everybody uses them. You know, I didn't have them that long ago. So I mean, you know, maybe 80 years ago, six, seven years ago, something like that. And someone, oh, Ike made comments about getting on Chris's Discord server. And you know, Ike, when he first really came out with that, Rick was on it and you had spent quite a bit of time after overtime on Friday nights and even on the weekends on the Discord server. And then I think it changed, right? It was confusing. And then we wasn't getting used much. Chris shut that one down. And then it got shut down because I think there were a lot too many trolls or weird people on there. So we, neither one of us have made it on the new one yet. I don't even know if we have a link for it. So I only know if we're invited. Well, I mean, that's his own personal thing there. Ike was inviting us, I guess. Because, you know, he's the, the, what they call him. Ambassador? No, he's, you don't say. I know I'm having really bad word fighting problems. Adam accused him of being a bad tech support. Oh, I hate when that happens. He's a scammer. There we go. Oh, he's the computer guru. Yeah. So yeah, he and his son, I believe, do the, do that. How did we used to have him up there on the screen up top? Now they don't. Well, that's because we're not running it through there, remember? Oh, because we're not really connected. We're just using it as a capture card. Gotcha. Oh, we got someone from Georgia. Got Georgia on the line. Did you get the freaking thing, donation thing taken care of? Did you fix that? Yes. Yeah. So, let's see. What else? Oh, Shannon made comments that Chris is way too impatient to use the ultrasonically detector. Yeah. I don't know. I haven't worked with him. And then someone else said Chris has that detector control. That's funny. We got D harder one in here. Let's see. I'm seeing if there's any more, any more fun stuff. How do you like being a service manager? Ike is how many guys do you got? Adam is just like CNN fake news. Which Adam are we talking about? They talk about 18 or? Yeah, 18. That's hilarious. I love it. He's not even in here to defend him. I sent him a link. They didn't even reply. They didn't even give me the finger. I mean, we spent all that time making sure that it would work because I wanted to make sure that it would work. Because all that echo crap. I mean, that is so irritating when things don't work right. So, it should be taken care of. I know I literally logged out of my Wi-Fi and came in from the outside world. And it should work. Should work. It did work. So, if they do happen to come in here, it should work. Shoulda coulda woulda. Um, oh, so Shannon said he just ordered from True Tech Tools for the first time and they sent him the wrong merchandise. Not a good first impression. Huh. Yeah, that could be bad. I emailed them hoping to maybe get a code, but I'm not big enough. They didn't even email me back. Pepsi has to go. Okay. I'm not big enough. Say bye to your little lover boy. Bye, Pepsi. Hope you have a good night. Everybody say bye to him. Thanks for coming in though. Don't forget to smack the thumb button on your way out the door. Mix the, uh, there and don't... What are you doing there? I'm playing with it. Don't play with it. You might break it. No. Or poke your eye out. It's got a two-year warranty. Yeah, I'm sure it does. It does. It came with one and they upgraded it to two. Aw, how special. Sweetwater Sound over in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Oh, yeah, we love Sweetwater Sound. So where's your little, um, your little magazine thing that you were just playing with? This one here that I haven't read all of it yet? Yeah. So, yeah, there was, uh... We're talking about COVID, possibly like mandatory, uh, you know, what, what's in these companies going to do to protect themselves from maybe getting sued for killing people by sending a technician in. It gives the family COVID and stuff, whether they have mandatory vaccines and stuff. What do you guys think? You're going to do the mandatory vaccine that I'm sure they put a lot of time in testing it into that I'm sure is perfectly safe and won't cause a third leg or something to come out of your forehead? Leave a comment down below. I'm kind of curious. So, how many of you guys have gotten it? I guess that'd be the next question. I mean, I've got a few friends that caught it and they didn't lose their smell. They didn't lose their, their, uh, sniffered or their taste. They didn't lose anything. Even the one had heart conditions. The other one's, uh, same age as me. It's kind of interesting how selective. Now, Grana, we had one friend. They had a, uh, a family member that was, uh, mentally handicapped and it ended up taking him out, unfortunately. So, I mean, it was kind of a hit and miss. I mean, some people it doesn't do crap to and other ones it does some major issues. So, but, uh, what else we got going on in there? So, someone asked, which is the least expensive, but good enough resolution, clear phone attachment, FLIR. Is that a thing? I would ask Chris on that one. He bought three different ones and kept one of them. I think he went with the pocket one. The phone thing, I don't know. I don't like the way that it, I don't know. I just find it probably not going to be as good, but I mean, uh, a client has one right now, too. That's supposedly like only 200 bucks, but, you know, the resolution's kind of low. I had a snap on one that I got kind of cheap and, um, I use it some, but eventually the, the, uh, excitement wears off and you kind of like find out that it's like, okay, yeah, it's hot there. No kidding. You know, so I quit using it very much and then it kind of acted up and I sold it. So Arizona saying that he had COVID and now since he's had it, he gets sent into all of the sick homes. Oh, that's great. Even though we don't know for certain whether or not it's going to come back or different form. And they say that you, right now, research is indicating you only have antibodies from it. Like once you've had it for maybe a couple of months, I mean, it's definitely not as long as six months is what the research is suggesting as of right now. But you know how that changes quite often. Oh, thanks, Ike. Ike sent you the email, the link to the discord server to your email. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. What else we got going on in there guys? Anything in particular? We got 74 people. If you would smack the finger button there. That's how I'm going to be doing it from here on out. You guys know what to do. Smack that thumb button. Yeah. So Ike had it and he said for him, it wasn't that bad. So yeah, it's just really, it's really random how how people, some people get really sick and some people don't. I mean, we don't want to get too big into it because, you know, YouTube's little algorithms and stuff, you talk too much about it and then they'll be like, hey, you're doing bad things. We're going to knock you off the air. So Arizona is getting hazard pay now. He got a little bit of pay raise. So hey, I mean, yeah, you know, Ike said you could smack the middle finger button if YouTube had it. I know I wish there was that. So someone asked what flaring tool do you use and do you recommend it for a new tech in terms of ease of use? I have two of them. I have the original yellow jacket flaring and swaging tool. I bought 25 years, 22 years ago. I bought it like a year or two after being in the field. It's just the traditional flair where it kind of comes straight down and then visa it out at a 45. Then I bought a orbital flaring tool and it is a, it looks a lot like the Black Max. Try to remember what, it's like the Black Max and the CPS one. Basically it just wobbles and it does an awesome job. I found that on eBay for like 65 bucks because they thought it was broke because it had orbital. So I was like, yeah, I'll take that. No problem, man. I'll see if I can fix it. So you know, you just whore around on eBay and you just look for tools that are taken well care of and aren't all beat up and stuff like that. Chances are it's already fine. I mean, that fleet meter I use, I got it on eBay for like 130, 140 bucks with shipping. So however, now that all the tax crap, it's not as fun as what it used to be. So, yeah. Stupid taxes. Yeah, killing us. But yeah, you've not, you've not really talked to you. When did you get that new flair tool? That flaring tool I've had for probably three, four years. Something like that. I think something like it's been a while. I mean, I don't do a lot of flares. I mean, I do a few flair dryers here and there. And, you know, the install department usually does the Mitsubishi's and stuff. I have a digital Hillmore torque wrench and a Hillmore bending tool. I mean, I don't really do much installation or anything, but I, you know, I have the tools if I need to. What else we got there, bud? Alexander said, going to A-H-R-L-O-L? Yeah, they got canceled. Every time, you know, I actually could be ready to do it. And they cancel it. Oh, here's a new name I've not seen before. Ain't nobody got time. I like that name. I really like creative YouTube names. So he has a question. What are you using for R-12 units, 409A, like since it's not being sold anymore? Well, I mean, it depends on, are we talking a capillary tube or a TXV? If it's a TXV, you know, and it's easy to change oil, I'll change oil and convert it over to 134A. If it's a cap tube, we usually go with a drop-in, like Hot Shot 1 or 2, which now Hot Shot 2 is the way to go because one kind of had 22 in it, so it was expensive. I have used 409A. That worked really good, too. But you got to remember, I mean, 92, 93-ish areas when they outlawed all that crap. So, I mean, how old is it now? I mean, it's like 30 some years. So, you know, sometimes you got to be like, okay, it's time to call it quits here. But yeah, if you change oil on a cap tube system, you're going to break everything loose and chances are you're probably going to plug your cap tube up because all that crap's in the lines. So, we don't usually try to change it on cap tubes. TXV's no big deal. So, Arizona says he uses a brake lane flaring tool. Hey, not bad. That's a double, double flaring tool. You got to do, got to make use of what you've got. So, Richard wants to know what is the cause of a train package unit where the inducer motor turns off and on at times in cooling mode. So, it sounds like that might be a sporadic issue, maybe. That is something better for probably one of the train guys. Yeah, because we don't do it. We don't have a lot of trains up this way. We have train. We just don't sell train. It's hard to stop one. It's even harder to get one going. And, oh, John answered it. Grounded winding can cause that. And the older Voyager units, he said. Yep. That's the class I've been through as the Voyager one. I did a heat exchanger on that under my old channel name, which I pretty much, I've thought about dumping some of those videos in there, going through and editing out, you know, my old name and things like that. And I'll proof them. Yeah. Blur out anything that isn't supposed to be shown. But some of these videos, I've got so much names and things in it that it's too difficult to blur it out. So, they just, they're gone. We were asked, does your company put you with a new guy very often? Never. Hardly ever. I've offered to do it. Rick is a bad influence. It must be. The guy that don't want him with him has him with him. And I, but you're in it, you know, I offered to do it because I mean. Rick might turn him salty. Yeah, you might, I guess. You'd think that maybe where I was at before, but not so much here, I don't think. Arizona said he prefers a good man over a train. That's funny. Let's see. AD says I have a brand new DuPontkin R22. Anybody want it? They're, they're making some deals because Ham said he needed some. Is that one of those little, it's 12 ounce, 16 ounce ones? Hamilton said he needed a 20 ounce of R12. And so it looks like there's some bartering and trading maybe. Oh, and yeah, Arizona said they've had a couple of training that show up flat on charge. They all got issues. I don't care what it is. They all have issues. I mean, I've had it on carrier, I had it on Linux. I mean, they, they, it's made by, by a human. It can very easily be messed up or screwed up in shipping. So let's see what else we've got here. Jeff, the maintenance man. I like that name. Oh, let's see. Hamilton. Oh, Samuel is asking what our flare fitting filter dryers used for. You see more on the lower pressure stuff, you know, I mean, you can use them on anything, but I mean, you see it more, I like this. I use them sometimes if I know I've got to change the filter dryer out, say on like a walk-in cooler or something. It's running something a little bit lower pressure wise, like 404, 22, something like that. But I mean, obviously a good flare joint technically can handle, you know, a flare is a flare if it's done right. So Mitsubishi, you know, says test them out at 600 pounds of pressure. So I mean, if you don't do it right and you torque it right, because you know, generally don't have too many problems. So I don't know. And Helsing's sage had said he had a lot of train 824 thermostats arrive DOA. I don't know which one that is. Dead on arrival. No, 822 or whatever. I don't know trains numbers that well. And yeah, Arizona study totally agrees with you. He's just had more issues with train than even with the Reem and Lennox over there in Phoenix where he's at. You know, Reem and like Rude, I worked for a manufacturer that sold them and they really didn't have many problems with them. They're decent unit. I mean, they ain't like fancy, but I got looking around for an alternative one night when I was doing that one heat pump for my in-laws. I was like, man, I'm gonna rip this thing out. And I got looking and seeing what everyone else had for communications, things like that, something comparable to say like a infinity or something. And Reem actually has got some fancy stuff available. I just don't see it. I like what ain't nobody got time. He just made this comment. He said, remember, new guys, smoke and vape in the van and disregard your health. Next stop to the office, you out the van. That's funny. Yes, smoking is bad. There's my public service announcement for the night. Yeah, luckily never got into that. Seemed like a waste of money to me, but... Richard made a comment. He said also on the train package has issues on the condenser coil where the aluminum meets the copper that they always crack and leak on two stage. Interesting. I'll need to look for that. Yes, that's something to keeping your little memory file there. Yeah, because I mean, anything too awfully new. Like I did a train unit that basically her, I think it was her son or somebody that used to work for a company that sold it. They installed this fancy heat pump thing that basically could set its own refrigerant charge and hook your meter or your weight scale up to it. And it literally shuts the solenoid off and it charged itself on its own. So it's kind of interesting. I mean, they do have some fancy stuff, but it was low on something too. I forget where the leak was, but yeah. And speaking of Rheem, it's pretty sad that when I go somewhere, I'm checking out what type of units they have on the side of businesses and whatnot. Because when I was down in my Holmes County adventure, Boyd and Worthman, one of our favorite places to go eat, had three different Rheem units. I was really surprised to see that. Are they split systems or package systems? Are they on the ground? Package. Did it look like what we have outside or did it? Yes, they were package. Are they split? Because if they were smaller, that split package would be like... No, they were fairly bigger. But you know how big Boyd and Worthman is? Who's that? That's the place you were asking me. He's eating breakfast. Oh, I thought you were talking about that cool hardware store or an homage country. No, that's Lehmans. No, it wasn't Lehmans. It was another name. No. The one that was supposedly like a lozerman arch, but it was more... Oh, that's Kym or whatever. Yeah. Let's see what else is in there. Do y'all have guests? Yeah, we used to. I mean, it just depends. I mean, I had Chris and Bill and Adam and all them pop in. I mean, they get burned out stuff too, you know. And we can pull this off for an hour or so or whatever. I mean, it's really up to you guys what you can throw out there. I mean, we make time to do this just because I like keeping in contact with you guys and, you know, bribe just so that you'll come back and watch more videos. But now, you guys, we all know that you're just here to see me. And I have a funny feeling. It's probably true. Could be. Who knows? I mean, why else would we hang 70 some people and sometimes 100 people in here? It's my my Shetty Balls voice. That's gotta be it. Is that why? That's what it is. That way you sleep by yourself? Okay, I got you. Something like that. Oh, what else we got going on, guys? Why don't you give me... I want to look at that one magazine. This one? Yes. So AD wants to know your opinion on residential scroll single versus two speed versus variable life of the compressor? I don't know if it has a lot to do with it. I mean, far as life, the variable, I mean, I've only had a few issues with them where they were too noisy and we had to limit the RPMs. But single stage on some of that stuff. I sometimes wonder how how much difference it really makes going 16 seer to 20 seer and stuff like that. I guess I'm not a believer. Not for the price, but I don't know. Yeah, I suppose if it got showed to me and you could prove it great. But life wise, I haven't really noticed one way or the other because I've got a lot of geothermals that are two stage and they seem to fail about the same time, whether they're single stage or two stage. You guys are killing me in the chat. So Alexander said, I add the spice spice to this and then Samuel's like, I can tell Rick is about had it with Laura for the night. She ain't been here since Thursday. Yeah, you guys. So I left Thursday morning and went down to Holmes County for a scrapbook crop with my mom and my aunt. So I literally got home about 233 o'clock today. So I've not. And I had Chloe to deal with the whole time. But she was a perfect angel. Well, of course, you know, I'm kind of curious who she sleeps with tonight though. Yeah, yeah. That'll be kind of funny. Oh, so everything HBCR said that they have a service bulletin out to add weights to the discharge lines to help with leaks and that he's installed a few. That's interesting. I've seen where they've put real heavy rubber pieces on there and wiretied them on in the past to help done sound and vibration before. I forget if that was might have been a Linux or something. It was like on the on the gas discharge line, as far as I remember, that was quite a while ago. But I've seen something similar like that before. Yeah, poor Rick had to, uh, then for himself, you know, A.D. said as Sierra goes up actual kilowatt per BTU gets less than less. Wouldn't surprise me. I don't know. I kind of look at it when I'm doing some of the service checks and see what the temperature rise and drop and all that stuff is based off, you know, the outdoor temperature and stuff. I mean, I got mine charted over there, which you guys will see somebody installing a ultraviolet light change out. We made a video of that and, uh, But no, who would have done that? I have no idea. Somebody decided they wanted to install it. So she installed it and I just supervised. But I got to make sure she's okay. Leaving in what I left in because there's some, uh, there's some drama there. Um, yeah. Chronic flute does HVAC. Yeah, she was complaining that she couldn't get in because the exhaust stacks were in the way into the furnace. So she, you know, she had to use both right and left snips and trying to get in there and make, you know, and I wanted nice, perfect clean cuts around. I didn't want fish hooks and things like that. And I didn't want wrinkles in it. So I have issues. Then I told her, Hey, you need to extend that power wire on the low voltage there. And I'm like, Hey, don't shove that stripper into the circuit board and blow my circuit board up. And I didn't. I was like, hands off. Yep. I didn't mess up my stimulator. I'm not touching anything electrical. Yep. Not going to zap myself and be the end of it. Oh, well, looky here. Here's a little sneak peek for you guys. That's the, uh, all of the LED version, which I was going to go with. But the guy at supply house said that he had it for a few months or whatever. And it didn't, it didn't take care of the smells and stuff as well. So he yanked it back out. Ray, Ray, Barry. So that we didn't get that one. He said Rick can't get enough of your love. That's so funny. Oh yeah. You wait till you hear her laugh on some of them. I thought, man, I haven't heard her laugh like that forever. So you wait till you see some of the funky Roseanne type stuff that she did. Roseanne. Yeah. And you wait till you hear the laugh. Great. I'm going to have to screen this before you, uh, put this up. And then where she was sticking the drill and where she was sticking the screws. So. Oh, I forgot. Yeah. They, um, Bosch comes out with a new thermal camera. Day late, $2 short. I'm done with Bosch. I love, uh, they, they held up better than the drill held up better than my Milwaukee did, but they just aren't keeping up with the times. Oh, look, you can get an AC cover. It's an, it's HVAC covers LLC. That way it keeps the mice warm when they're sleeping in there over the winter. I tell people to put a board on top of it with a brick. If you're really wanting to do it, that's my feeling on it. If you want to keep the leaves out, what do you guys think? Anything else there, Chuck? I don't know. I got distracted. I've used the eye wave. What's that? I think it's one of the, um, uh, bipolar little ordeals, if I'm correct. We had one, um, is that what it is? Grandpa Althar is one of those, um, bipolar type deals where it has the positive and negative ions. If so, I mean, I've used that in the ice machine. It was, um, a little blue device about literally this big and it had two little antennas and you stick your probes in there and you actually can measure I think 90 or 100 some odd volts, but it was like DC, very, very, very low amperage, um, didn't shock you or nothing, but it didn't work very long for very long. And the mold and nastiness ended up coming back into this ice machine. So we ended up putting ultraviolet light in there, which I think ultraviolet works a little bit better. Um, we've got everything HVCR said he has a new house on a crawl space and a steam humidifier. What do you think about adding steam to the return air? I have only worked on one or two of them. I don't, I don't remember what they want and don't want. It was a honey well and it was like use, it was a residential one put into a commercial application because they were using residential equipment in a split situation. And I remember we had some issues with it and we had to do some re-changing and stuff, but I don't know. And I know they have special applications. They'll sometimes see that in like computer rooms and stuff like that to control the humidity, but not, uh, I don't know. Maintenance is everything and nobody wants to maintain it. So usually having issues with calcium buildup and things go to heck. So let's talk about indoor air quality for a moment. Shall we? Or IAQ? IAQ is it's abbreviated. So, now you know, if you read that's probably copyrighted. Seriously? I don't know. Well, I'm just, I know one person complained when I wrote, uh, read out of the book for the generator. He's like, I'm going to call Generac on you. They can suck it. All right, people. Listen, this is important stuff called Generac. They said we don't care. So here is an interesting quote, and this is a quote. So in a study in Oregon, in an Oregon hospital demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 can be transmitted through HVAC systems. So, which I never doubt it was possible according to this professor of agricultural engineering. He said it does not establish that COVID-19 has actually been transmitted by this route. I don't know. Well, I mean. The creepy crawlies can go right through the coil and back into the ductwork. But here's something you guys need to realize. One thing that does kill COVID is ultraviolet light. Okay. So we have these big things that we use. It's called treaty, and it disinfects everything. It literally kills COVID, which is great. How long does it have to be into the premises of it before it kills it? Well, it's interesting. So when you put treaty in a room, the thing goes inside. It almost looks like a circular, like, tanning bed. And the outside of it, actually, this system is able to scan how dirty, quote, unquote, the air in the room, like, or just how dirty the room is in general, both the air and the surfaces. And it runs its ultraviolet setting thing until it can tell that everything's been killed. Now, with that being said, something else that I found interesting, because I did watch. I was very interested to see what Clive was said on overtime Friday night, because I know they were discussing some various things. And what I find interesting is that, you know, another big thing is, like my so clean machine, for example, that I put my CPAP stuff in my mask and whatnot. So the way it sterilizes both my mask, my tubing and the inside of my machine is it runs a five to up to a 12 minute cycle. You can set it. Yeah, really. And what it does is it takes your, you know, your oxygen that's in the room. And it actually can, it actually takes the O2 and makes it an O3. So it actually ionizes it, which by doing that, it puts it actually sterilizes everything. And that will also kill COVID. So yeah, like, it's really interesting. And the unit that we have here in our house is both an ultraviolet light and it also does like that ionizing. It's the halo. Yeah. And it can also do, some of them can also do like a hydrogen peroxide type thing. Must do that too. And honestly, I can tell a huge difference, especially coming home today, since I've not been home since Thursday. I can smell it in the morning in the bedroom. You can tell a big difference. It gets rid of odors. Like it's pretty sweet. I really do. I really do like it. So Arizona, you asked about the jacket thing. And I know McMaster said something about it. I mean, generally, my feeling is on it. Most people use them for noise dampening or anything. So it won't hurt probably nothing forward. It's just a little bit of noise. And if they're all tore up from the mice and stuff, you're not going to lose a whole lot. And if you're in Arizona, don't even really get cold there. So it won't be a big deal for the oil. Shouldn't be anyhow. So someone asked, how do you tell the transducer is working properly? Transducer on what? I'm confused. Can you elaborate on that, please? There's transducers and all kinds of stuff. I'm trying to think exactly. It'd be a reference to transducer. Let's see. That's really annoying. O.T. Joe added four photos in HVAC over time. Oh, OK. I turned the dog on thing off, but it's like, while I did, you must have got in here and turned my mixer dog off. Open volume mixer. See, it's not showing other system sounds. Let's see if that, does that do anything? We didn't lose anybody, did we? I don't know. It seems like it's working. So shouldn't do it no more. Yeah. System sounds. It should, should probably work. No, it's not Reem Halo, Josh. It's Remi, R-E-M-E Halo. And they actually have like what, how many different types they have for out now? They make stuff for airplanes and things like that. They make big commercial items, all kinds of stuff. So if you go to rgf.com, their name is RGF Environmental Group Incorporated. Because man, we've had the other different lights like their previous models. Their bulbs are good for two years, whereas like the carrier is only good for about, if you do the math, because I believe in running it 24-7 non-stop. And a carrier bulb doesn't even make it a year. And they, you know, there's some other brands out there that might go a little longer, but their bulbs are rated for at least two, two years to two and a half years. So from an investment standpoint, I thought it was the best deal. Now, the one thing we did notice is they're very, the brand new like unit that they, the Remi Halo. So it specifically says that you have to wire that one up in parallel with your blower fan. So it only, that unit only turns on when your blower fan starts up and then turns off when it turns off. But what's interesting is, you know, like Rick runs, you run your blower all the time, you never turn it off. So obviously that would not work very well at our house. What wouldn't? That type of thing where it has to be go on and off with a blower. They're just not wanting it to set their static and just setting there and nothing happening because it can probably create some ozone or something and give off a stench or something. And here's a really interesting, another quote that I like. It says, what technician do you want in your house? The one who says, hey, do you want to know more about this or the one who just ignores it? That kind of puts some thought in there. Joe quit posting crap. Dang it. I wish you could edit it. I actually says he's still on. Yeah, tell him. Yeah, tell him we're still on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me click on it. Uh-oh. All right. We had someone subscribe. Thank you. What did I just do? Well, you need to minimize that because you need to get it. Abandoned ship. Abandoned ship. I don't know where it's at. I need to find it here. Hold on a minute. Scroll over. Here we go. Let's just close that. Yeah. There we go. And. You closed out the window. Babe, you got rid of our stream. You're kidding. No, I'm not kidding. Well, you left all these things open. It's your computer, bud. Well, I don't even know where anything's at now. We got all these windows. We might be able to go back in there. You need to go back. No, it's still going. Okay. Ray Ray said that's the wrong duct. It's no, we have no picture because you closed out a stream labs, babe. Oh, well, we can go back into that. Well, go back into that. Well, if you guys are out there, don't leave. Just give us a moment. We need to make sure this isn't sharing the screen to the point where. Super genius. Well, you know, whatever. That's what Rick is. He's a super genius. Twisted candle company said stop touching stuff. I agree. Hey, this is what happens. It was Joe that freaking asked a question. I tried to reply. And next thing you know, the freaking thing. This is why Rick can't be left to his own device. Hey, who figured out the audio issue that we had? Me. Thank you. Down it. Bull crap. It freaking worked. They're like, Rick and his technical difficulties. Whatever. It was fine until she decided to tell me. I said, Hey, when we hit that button, it's got recorded. So we know that we can. Can freaking work coming back. Yeah. Hold on a moment. There it is. And let's see if OBS comes back up. Yeah, look at that. I still hear you. Of course. But now you've got it all funny. You need to have it on the screen. Hold on. Got it on the wrong screen. Hold on. We're getting there. There we go. Now it looks like it's kind of there. It lost it again. There we go. There we go. You're looking at it in YouTube studio, which is not correct. Well, this I ain't sure why it's even running. It is minimize that please. Okay. Why can't you follow directions? Well, you have the controller over there. Not for, not for that. Okay. There we go. See, it's just fine. Yeah. And look who did it. No, it's actually showing the wrong thing. You're showing the wrong thing. What do you mean? Look at what's broadcasting on there. Well, I can't freaking see it. Because you told me to close. Hello. You told you not to close the window. He has just screwed everything up. Let me tell you. You freaking said close the window. Whatever. Why the hell will it just come up? What's a what? Because you have the wrong thing up. Well, you have a controller in front of you. Well, I can't take the mouse. Okay. So there's that. And we got the closest stupid ass. You have hoe hatch hoe. I know. I mean, this is why he needs to not touch anything. And we would be fine. Come on. Hot shot. Why don't you get this son of a gun fixed? I'm ready. Instead of sitting. Whatever. Well, you entertain the fans. There's always something. Stop. Stop touching, please. Are you finally going to participate now? Come on. Let's go. I don't know where is captioned the screen at because we're up here on that. And that's where it should be pulling it from. I think I remember somebody programming this thing. What it probably does that click on only us. That's probably the problem. Don't be pulling that up. You might have my passwords and everything else in it. You never know. You can have your stream ID and everything else. What are you doing? Still not fixed. We're experiencing technical difficulties. Please stand by. Huh? Well, now you just closed out a stream yard. Why would you do that? All right. Now you got to go back into Safari. Go on there. Come on there. Barely. You can do it. There you go. We're going that one there. According to that, we looks like we back on there. Oh, we're on pause on that one anyway. Enter the studio. Why are you opening up this? You are too. You're killing me here, Chuck. Two chucks in a truck. Well, somebody's got to talk about something. Here, I'm going to close this out. Stop. I was just getting there. Yeah, it's closed. There we go. You focus on your mic. What am I going to talk about? You kind of created an issue here. What? Close it. There you go. Gone. Oh, now you closed the other one, didn't you? Hurry up. Stop playing with the mic. Please stand by. It looks like we're back up again. Sign in to chat. Why do we need to sign in? Are we out? This is why he's not allowed to touch anything because this is what happens. Somebody didn't, you know, I decided to figure it out here tonight before we went on. I started two hours early and was playing with everything and trying to get it going. And I did. I figured out the audio technical issue that I won't share with nobody because nobody shared it with me and got that fixed. You didn't want to learn it. No, I told you exactly which one to go look at but you didn't listen. I did slap his hand, Alexander. Yeah, whatever. All right. He's on my last nerve. I need another vacation from him. What else do we got here? Here you go. Best practices for the safe handling of flammable R290 refrigerants. Bring the torch in hot and ready to go in advance. What else we got? You guys got any more questions for us out there? Because, I mean, I'm treading water here. Alex, can you post it again? Wonder what did Alex post? I don't know. There's Billy. Oh, Billy. Oh, Billy. Why don't you come on here and let's see if this thing works. Let's see. Yeah, Joe, Joe, we're still be working. Where's my phone at? There it is. I don't know what to do with it. I'd like to test it because, I mean, that's why I sent the link out there. I didn't need nobody to help me. I just kind of wanted to make certain that. Twisted candle. He said this is why my wife won't work with me. That's funny. There I sent it. You know, everything's got to crash and burn at some point with us. Yeah. Joe replies, Yokey. And you still didn't mute that. I give up. I tried doing it and it's not showing me all the mixers that it had originally there. So see that right there? Oh. I have system sounds muted. It shouldn't be showing up, but it is. So I'm not going to, I ain't going to care. I need a new magazine. Oh, so someone asked if you could give a preview of upcoming videos. Here's two more of them. Knock yourself out. If I could close it down, I could show you. I've got a residential unit and a commercial application at a sewage treatment plant that I started working on because the other one like was going to take forever. So I'm going to try to knock that thing out. I've got the one with her changing the ball, which is kind of short. It's like six or eight minutes, something like that. But it's hilarious apparently. Yeah, pretty much. But I hate when it's like that because when people don't watch it and I get the specs, it says, your audience is not choosing this one as much as the others. He doesn't have to get crashes his stream of this video apparently. Well, I am so popular here, you know. So then they don't recommend you to nobody because you ain't getting the views because reviews just do not get it. People don't like reviews as well as the regular stuff. So it's a necessary evil sometimes. Other things I've got there. I've got a boiler, commercial boiler that had some issues, expansion tank, zone valve, pop-off valve, and some other stuff that was screwed up that I did. That one's kind of a longer one. And since the last boiler one kind of sucked far as views at first, it's kind of weird. I don't know if it's newer viewers that end up coming in and saving it because the views ended up coming up. And but I had another capillary tube change on a unit but I kind of like held off on it because it was very similar to the last one I did. So I didn't want to like keep doing the same crap over and over. Did you know there is a spray polyurethane foam alliance? I had no idea. I don't know. Oh, so apparently guys, this is breaking news. You're all going to be devastated. The spray foam or the spray polyurethane foam alliance has announced the postponement of the spray foam show from February 2021 to February 20th through March. Thunderstruck 2022. How do you keep things from freezing in your van? I guess it depends on where you live at. I mean, it gets cold here, but I finally had to build a little barn because somebody broke into my truck and stole a barn dominium. A good portion of my tools one night out of the driveway even though I'm out in the country. So that helped a little bit, but that was kind of expensive. I put like my fluids far as leak detector fluids and stuff like that. If it's not the free stuff, I will put it up in the front cab area so that the heater will help keep it warm from freezing like your soap leak detector stuff. That's about the only thing that really freezes that you have that big of an issue. I don't usually have any concoil cleaner or anything like that that ever freezes. Anything else? Yeah, Bill, the foam alliance. That's some new coal apparently. Someone else said they want more boiler videos. Do you have any of those in the works or not? Well, that's a bigger boiler one. Yeah, I can do it. What stinks is it's like, I don't think out exactly what... A lot of times I'll start recording before I even know if I'm going to have a good story to tell. And sometimes nothing comes of it. You get there and it's something stupid. So it's like, oh, yeah. Okay guys, bad motor, boom. That's it. You know, and so you really want to see that. So, and then about the time you don't, you know, then you end up start recording. It's like, okay, here's all the things that are wrong and you didn't get to see me try to find them out as I was digging through. What are you doing there, bud? I've got more breaking news, folks. This just in. This just in. You can hit the button. Okay, so did you know Klein Tools is coming out with a digital thermometer? Yeah. Yeah. Look, isn't that fancy? They had that. This is new. It's infrared digital thermometer with targeting laser. They have a 12 to 1. They have a 10 to 1. Their specs aren't that great. Optical resolution of 10 to 1. The unit measurement range is minus 4 degrees to... So it's only off by 4 degrees. 725 degrees Fahrenheit. And it's not very high either. So yeah, I'm impressed. But listen, it has drop protection up to 6.6 feet and... But wait, there's more. And it contains an FDA and IEC class 2 targeting laser. Don't set it on the food and it won't be a problem. And besides, that ain't the proper way to check food temperature anyway. You need to probe it. Oh, they've got smart thermostats. At first I thought those were like birth control pills or something. That's what it looked like. Smart. And they've got a new boiler drain valve. Matco Norco. Donald, I mainly do gas. I did a lot of oil prior to my other life, but oil is not that popular around here anymore. I mean, it's kind of like gone away because of the stink and the maintenance and all that crap. I can do it, but nobody likes to do it. Ooh, smart thermostats. I love a AC from appliance to tech gadget. Oh, behave. Let's see what Austin here. How do you calculate your cut in pressure on pressure control? I've done that several times on some of my videos. I usually try to get my cut in. I'm assuming you're talking about when you use it as a thermostat each back of life. I'll set my cut in first for sometimes, you know, 38, 39 degrees, something like that. And then I will start calculating my off pressure based off what the maximum pressure it can reach. Block off. And this is how I was taught by one of the guys I work with. And he's got 38 plus years and he works on the big stuff and he's pretty smart. So he told me to basically just stop your fan, watch it, see how low you can get, how low you can go. And basically set it a few pounds higher than that. So yeah, you got your range there. So you're going to go a little bit past freezing possibly, but because it's going to come all the way up to 38, it's going to kick on and the product is what really matters. The average product tip and it'll stay, you know, the average below the magic 40, 41 degree mark. So I don't like them as well, but I understand it. They do that so they can get away with not having to use a defrost clock, but you got to have the right type of TXV and things like that. I don't like them as well. I'd rather have a temperature control myself. Hey, I got more breaking news. Tell me all about it. Airbud hit the Morse code button again. What's broken news? So apparently under the industry news, they're talking about the weather. Got to turn that down a little bit. Apparently, according to AccuWeather, a sturdier polar vortex may hold the line this midwinter to prevent the unusual cold blasts that dip down into much of the U.S. last year. Shut the front, where I'm talking about Canada. I don't, is that what we're talking about? I will, yeah, it says Canada. Canada, da, da, da. Hold on. I got to hit the thing. Okay. Are you ready? Hold on, man. I got to get over here. Add to the stream. Okay. Let's try it. It's you, Joe. It's probably all that snow north. I mean, you need to hit the other thing to the. Okay. Hold on. I'm getting there. Check that out because he's got his phone vertical, but still it turned out right. And look at that, guys. No echo. Yeah. Come out and back in. It should change or make sure your phone isn't on lock mode where it doesn't rotate. That might be the problem at the top right corner. There you go. It's all hazy because he's smoking in the boys' room. Yeah. Yeah. Ray Ray said, he said smoking Joe. Smoking Joe Bacon. That was a guy on the radio back in the day. Oh, hey. Hey, Mr. Oh, I fixed the sound issue. Guess what? What? No sound. You're shitting me. No, they can't hear Joe Joe. Well, you, you screwed up things. Let me, while you close all those windows out. Hold on a minute here. Joe, you can hear us right. Okay. Let me go into the mixer thing here real quick. Oops. Wrong one. Let me find it because with all those windows that get closed, roadcaster, it looks like it's freaking all there. I thought you said you fixed it. I did. It was working just fine. Lies. All lies. You crashed all the windows, Chuck. Yeah. Well, you know, that's the nice thing to say, right? That looks like that's gone to the right spot. Let me see here. They've got a big, no. There it is there. Well, do you have the... Don't click on that button. I'm trying to find the flipping sound card. You went in here and redid them, remember? Bill, because I had it all freaking figured out. So go in there and fix that. You got to go into live us only and probably copy and cut that out. Guys, I had it all figured out and fixed and she screwed it up. But you didn't copy it over. You redid it after I done that. Remember, you're like, I'm going to just start all over. It's not in here either. Well, see, you wiped them all out. Instead of copying, I bet. I didn't do nothing. It worked fine. We had, we logged in multiple times and it worked fine. As soon as I get her to just cut and paste that turd, come on now. It's not in here. Well, add the little plus arrow there and add it. But how did you do it? Go into video capture device. I actually know you went to audio. So you need to get, well, here was my little note set. See, I took notes this time so that we could actually, so we can actually get it done right. And that's over the detector. OBS, mic monitor only, launch, stream yards. We're getting bored here, babe. I don't know what to tell you. The price is right, bud. All right, hardware inputs, virtual inputs, control panel sound setting. That's what we need is I need the OBS one. Is it? Yeah. Not getting any younger here. Hey, you know all about it. You knew all about it. Just add the freaking audio. Add the audio capture. They probably hear me, but they probably can't hear you. But you're going to, yep. Yeah, you want that? No, it's not you. It's got to find it. If it did, that one don't, yeah, exactly. No, but it's us this time, really. Okay, drag it up and down to see whether or not it's hidden in there. Yeah, it's not. There it is. You guys should be able to hear Joe. Now, do you guys hear him? Can you guys hear Joe? Smoking in the boys room. We're going to adjust that volume down. Get your finger off them, think of a jig. There we go. There we go. Wow. You got all kinds of craziness going on there. Let me put a compressor on you real quick. Will you get off my button? Oh my gosh. Filter. Can you guys hear Joe? So yeah, you should be. Let me go down here and we'll add compression. They're saying negative. Thunderstruck said negative. Turn your computer up. It's got to be your computer. All right. That should help out some. Huh? Nope. Arizona said nope. Well, I thought you had this fixed. I did and it was working earlier until you screwed it up. I didn't touch it. So we're here and if you go down there. He's showing up. It's showing up that it's working. Oh, I don't know if I believe that later. Everything. Yeah, I'm sorry about that. You're showing up in the thing, which means it should be coming into the OBS TV strong. Yeah. We're going to have to hit you up like because it's just, it's, you know, how it is. That makes no sense. Well, let's see here. Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Let me bring up this volume because you had all those freaking. While he does that. So apparently Elon Musk shares an idea. Now try it. Can you guys hear Joe now? We'll find out soon. So apparently Elon Musk has an idea to release new super efficient home. Maybe they'll know. I'm waiting for the chat. I'm waiting for the chat to say something whether you can hear Joe, but you know, Joe ain't saved nothing because you're talking over him. Nope. I thought you fixed it, Rick. Well, you suck again. At least we started on time. That makes no sense because. He, so Elon Musk apparently has this. Oh, so the Tesla battery day event announced they have new batteries that push towards electrification. You know, the whole renewable energy and capacity at which the current battery. Check, check. Apparently, because it's not good enough. They're neat car and they're fast. They're sweet looking cars. Okay. I see you coming through. You guys still don't hear Joe. No. Talk to me. People talk to me. Bounce with me. Bounce with me. Juju. Juju. Joe, you have a whiteboard. Yeah, that's cause he's got. They don't make no sense. Let's let's go in either. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They're like, you have a whiteboard. We did audio capture device last time. Right. Yes. So do audio input. Let's try that then. And add source. Input capture. Add source. Then click there. Well, you know what? It could have been too. We needed to get, I don't, is it? Yeah, it should be that one. Wild West is saying that Joe looks so cool with a cigarette. You guys hear him there on that one? Say something there, Juju. That's a different one. Yeah. Oh, you do. No kidding. Oh, I love it. Oh, yeah. So someone said maybe he's low on freon. That makes no sense. I mean, I'm watching us move the meters. He's moving the meters. So Tristan said that he sounds like he's on a level one and needs to be a level 10. So you need to boost him. Something fierce. He's already smacking into the red. How do you input? Yeah. Makes no sense. But he's not. Well, I wanted to try this before we went live. I mean, I sent it. But we did. Well, we did. I don't know. Nobody responded. I was hoping to try it for somebody from the outside world. It worked fine. But then I'll tell you what, I'm half tempted to just log in with my phone. Send myself here. That's what I think I'm going to do. Because I was on the couch. I'm curious. They detecting Arizona said, Joe has a bad TXV. I'm going to turn my Wi-Fi off and we're going to come in through the and my phone works because that's what don't make sense. Why does it always work when it's like we do our thing? They said they hear him. It's just as volume is super, super low. So there's got to be. Can you boost him in the banana thing? Not the banana hammock. Don't be giving out our secrets or Chuck. Boost him in the audio thing. That's a secret. Booster and audio. Not in this program. The other one. That's what I'm saying. They can hear him. It's just very, very faint. Try that. How about now, Joe, Joe? Good Lord. That sounds so delightful because you're like 500 miles away. Yes. Wild West. That's the sign Joe holds up when he panhandles. Okay. Make sure it's showing up in there yet. So streaming at all. This ain't the current stream. That's why I never sent myself the newest stream. Oh, well, do we need to put them on the B channel? We could try that. So, yeah, I changed the channel. There. Try that. Was it on A before? Yeah. Now say something, Joe, Joe. Testing, testing. Now we can't hear him. Can you guys hear him, though? No. Joe, can you say something? Yo, testing, testing. There he is. I hear him. Now they can hear him. Good. They said good. Yep. They hear him now. Do you hear an echo though? There we go. So we got to have on A and B for him both. Well, I don't know because I mean. The thing is, Rick, I hear myself like right back at me. Well, did you turn your noise canceling thing on? You just need to turn the audio on your phone down. Yeah. Turn it down a little bit. Okay. Turn it down a little bit. Try that because there's B off. See if B makes a difference. Oh, well, I turned off B. Can you guys still hear him? They're seeing, yeah. Well, I don't know how far behind this is. He ain't saying nothing. What did you? What did you do today, Joe? You work on Sundays a lot. It's been so freaking busy and I'm promising people. And yes, I want to go change this furnace. But I hate hearing myself for it. It's so confusing. I don't know why. I know. And it's because of the loop. You taking him higher isn't going to make it no better. You're going to peek it out. And it's coming in plenty fine. It's now he's hearing himself and that's the problem because whatever. But he's going to because it's... Well, it's because he don't have headphones on. I'm assuming possibly. But then again, when we had both those on, we heard it too with headphones on. Yeah. Yeah. Well, shoot, that sucks at dogs, hind leg. Yes, Hamilton. Thank you for me. They're very delicate on doing this effort. Yeah. I don't get it. Because I mean, we freaking did it even outside of the network because it shouldn't, you know, it should have worked fine. But then again, when the windows crashed and everything else happens, maybe it may have lost it. We could go into menu and load settings on just load settings. Well, I'll still talk. They can hear me. I'll just share myself and I can use the shit on myself. It'll confuse you for sure. So I watched... Did you put up a video just like this past week, Joe, on your channel? Yeah. See when I alerted that other one. I just posted a picture of that heat exchanger I changed today. Why are you hitting me? I am trying to fit it fixed. I was going to show my analyzer that I use. It's an oldie, but it's still working. I'm planning to get a new one. Whoa. What kind is that? Yeah. It's a TPI. Oh, yeah. A Canadian special. Aren't those made up there? Or are those made at? Are they? I forget where they're made at. I haven't had a lot of luck with TPI. This says South Korea. They probably sold out, too. Yeah. You know, they're expensive when I got it. I remember that. It has a printer with a scanner thingy. This doesn't control this volume going to them. Well, I hate when you yell at me and I'm trying to explain things and you're like, tell me not to do things. It has a temperature of whatever you want to call it. Oh, yeah. It still works. I calibrated. That's pretty fancy. Does it help me turning that down at all, Joe? Sorry? Does it help to turn? I adjusted it in the mixer just to curiosity to see if it affected your echo or whatever. Does it only echo with you or with me talking to? It helped a bit. Yeah, that's why I was wondering if it was looping through. Because, I mean, we can crank up our headphones more. I mean, it just doesn't make sense. That's probably what it is because we got one on one input and one on the output and it's kind of confusing. It's a goofy digital mixer that I'm using. It involves bananas and potatoes. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I mean, how do you fix a piece of equipment that you haven't worked on before? You freaking just test it with it and try it without this? Do it without this? Does this do anything and you keep track of it and then you finally figure out what's wrong with it? It is what it is. Let's start with what's it called, process of elimination. Yeah, process of elimination. Yeah. Pineapples, that's what Chris said. Pineapples. But speaking of pineapples, did you ever send Chris that picture? Yeah, I did. Did you get a response? Yes, I did. Ha, ha, ha. So, there was a big old stack of pineapples when I was down in Holmes County amongst the Amish. So, I got a selfie with my mask on with the pineapples and sent it to Rick and told him to send it to Chris. Nice. I couldn't help myself. I'm just wondering if there's... Any time I see pineapples now I'll be thinking of Chris. Yeah, now it's gerbled. I switched him back the other way because this here was like, if you went to the one... Oh yeah, you can't use the WDM. I understand that and that's why I switched it to try it again, too. Yeah, I know you're out, you're outnumbered here because Rick likes pineapple and pizza. Yeah, pine pizza's good, too, though. Are you deaf? Can you not hear him? You got your volume up even higher than me. Can you talk about me being blind? I've only got one ear in. Well, that's your own fault. Put my other ear in. Yeah, because it's kind of weird when I switch it around. Sometimes you'll start sounding all digital, like a little bit. So, yeah, right there, it's still doing it. And I don't know which one's causing it. Just talk more. Testing, testing, testing. Oh, so I saw in one of your videos where you were doing a job and it must have been a fancy house. I can't remember exactly if it was super fancy or not. But you were wearing your little polo shirt and your fancy pants. And I was like, is that how the joke dresses all the time for all of the stage-back jobs? Or is he trying to pick up a lady? I was curious. You know what? Let's put it this way. If I could do this, I would do anything. That's funny. See, you know, I was at a house yesterday. I was starting, yeah, I worked out there. Anyways, I was in a garage, extended the garage because I was a young kid, Asian descent, and we had to move a boiler from one side of the wall. And he built a cavity for me. That's a Beesman. And I put him in the cavity and I had to hide all the pipes because he wanted to get one of his cars in the spot. And this dude came. He was in a Rolls Royce Phantom, I believe. I think it's a Rolls Royce Phantom. And the next time he came, that was Friday and then on Saturday, yesterday he came with a limbo. He had six cars. Like, I don't know where these guys get his money. Now, do you work by yourself or do you have anybody that helps you? I have a helper. But today, for my own business, by myself, and I'm showing that in the video, taking off the pickup truck, the furnace, and the dog. You gotta do what you gotta do. So basically, you work for somebody plus one on your own, too? Or what, how's that work? Yes. That's exactly. And your boss man don't care? It works until I'm dropping dead, eventually. What's that? It will work until I drop dead. Yeah. But you know, now that I could do it, I figured, why not? Sometimes it catches up, but it is what it is. Cool. And I've seen out there, everyone else said evened out. Is that better, guys? Because I shut down one of the other ones. It was all warbly sounding. It was, but is it better now? Yeah, I think it is. And Joe, are you hearing any funky monkeys? I'm hearing myself right back at me, it's confusing this shit out of me, but whatever. Okay. So basically, they hear you, but because I shut down this other one here, and that's why I was wondering. But it obviously ain't. Yeah, they said it's better. Yeah. I was at, I was at 9,000 per monoxide before I changed it out. In the stack. Wow. Yeah. I've destroyed them with like, I thought it was 3,000 or something. And they don't, they don't like it very good. No. And access there was like, I don't know, it was high 50, 60 percent. You want to explain access there? Oh, it's confusing. I ain't real sure. I am not real sure, honestly. I mean, I'm assuming that it's just more air, but usually more air on the secondary side. Be on the burning side, right? Sorry, Rick. Like when you asked for me, I got to wait till I finish talking. Oh, I'm sorry. Back. I'm sorry. No, it's all good. So go ahead. The primary area, you got your secondary area. And I believe it's the secondary area. Interesting. Yeah. And when you hit that echo thing, because there was an echo canceling thing, I don't have to use it, but I didn't know if you may need it on your phone or not. Just weird. Where is that? It's on when you entered in here. I don't know if when it asked for your name and the microphone and verify all that crap, I think it was under the settings. There was like cancel echo or something like that. Okay, I'll go in my settings now. Audio. Oh, but I'm still hearing myself. Oh, yeah. Do you have it on speakerphone? I'm going to try it out. Okay. That's why I was wondering if maybe speakerphone was just looping it around. Testing. Hey, no. Yeah, sounds good. He's the one that's having all the issues. That's what sucks. Yeah. Okay. Let me try going in and out again. All right. That's cool. Yeah. Okay, one sec. Get your mouse ready. Why? Because it's all you bud. Well, it'll automatically go to one just like it did. See that? You don't have to do nothing special. There we are again. That's because I just hit the button on my thing. Well, when he pops back in or what have you? I'll hit my transition button again. You guys would smack that thumb button on the way out of here. I don't think we've done anything bad that would cause any strikes against us this time. We suck again. That's all. I don't think we sucked that bad. I think we... You kept hitting buttons. I didn't hit buttons. You played, it was recorded. It can be played back and they're going to know that you confirmed. Yes. Go ahead and pull the trigger. I did and that was the end of it. You got to add him to the stream. No kidding, Chuck. There you go. You guys. That's the same shit. Yeah. It's a damn American shit. I'm sure it's got to be it. Yeah. I don't know. You know, that's... Maybe when we get done here, what have you, maybe we can try to figure it out or something. We need to consult Ike. What that? We need to consult Ike. What about Ike? Yeah, but Adam said he might take over our computer. Put a virus on there. Put the coronavirus on there. Actually, what was that? Oh, that was Trojan's problem. Trojan works. Yeah, Trojan. Oh, yeah. The real ones are the one for computers. The computer. Okay. Although, you know... He's cutting in now. So how am I supposed to know what he said? Joe may have a... Eat a cookie. You look like you need a cookie. Eat a cookie. Listen, I got something. Listen, Joe might have a stack of Trojans on standby. You just don't know. Well, why don't you ask him and find out? I had to. Because you go chat sometimes. I don't know. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I've seen your fan club on Friday nights. There's nothing there. Trust me. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. That's what she said. I'm working too much to tickle my fans. Oh, my. Damn. Whatever the case. Whatever. Not everybody can be supermodels like me over here. Yeah. Right. Yeah. But I was doing that today. And actually, I brought this up with, I don't know if it was Adam or just the whole crew there. And I was thinking of putting... Oh, that echo killing. I was thinking of putting a trap on my intake side, front share side. But I'm like, you know what? Because I put a real product, Weather King, on this one. I like to try different brands. That way you don't have parts for any of them. Sorry? That way you don't have parts for any of them. Yeah, I know, right? So they have it that's in the corner. So it's not right on top. Like some ICP that we have on top. Like in the middle. So I figured, you know what? And he didn't have a problem on his carrier that he had there. He was like, I'm gonna put it on. And I was just wondering how useful is that? Because I don't usually put that. But sometimes it's good to have, you know what I mean? Yeah. I think you're covering up your mic a little bit. So it's making it kind of hard to catch everything you said. But you said you put in that ream and stuff. And then I ain't covering shit, right? My phone is against the same thing it's always against. Well, I don't know. I hear this. It's like they're like, I don't know. All right. That's fine. It's all that smoke he's got in the garage. No kid, man. He's got the purple haze going on there. I don't know why it's so small. I mean, he didn't wash your hands. You got to wash your hands more often. It's probably the grease off them. Yeah. Well, these don't like greasy hands. Where we at? We're at an hour and 37 minutes or what? Have you ready to put a hole in this thing? I know poor Jojo. He's afraid to jump out because he feels bad. Put a hole in this thing. Oh, Ike said he's huffing R 22. We're going to put you in jail for like four years for dealing the drugs and 20 for vint in the refrigerant. So I didn't exhale. I didn't go ahead or something. Yeah. Like EPA where's the combined government agency? And like, oh, you released the refrigerant. No, I didn't. I made sure I used every little ounce and I invested. That's interesting. I'm kind of curious. I'm going to turn you down in the mixer and tell me if this makes a difference. Go ahead and talk to yourself. Testing, testing, testing. Make a difference. One, two, three. No. No. Yeah. That's what I figured it because I mean, we're basically running a digital onboard mixer. So everything was going to that. And then it was sending it where it needed to go. And it worked perfect from the phones. Of course, it did the first time last week. And then I don't know what happened. So I can't help but think that it had to be something she did or when the window crashed or something. But you know. I didn't do it. Yeah. Played it a lot. Yeah. Why not? Everybody probably thinks I beat her anyway with the way we argue on here. But I think they enjoy it. I do think they enjoy the bickering. Yeah. I can't wait till we're 80. Oh, man. Yeah. Just don't hit her with the cane like that guy did on Sportsnet. Oh, yeah. No, that wouldn't probably be a good idea. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. No one labeled as that. Yeah. We can go ahead and wrap this turd up. And then if you want, we can try to figure it out. But we'll flush this turd. Yeah, we'll flush this turd on down the hole. I appreciate everyone coming out tonight, guys. And then we're still at 41. If you guys would, go ahead and smack the thumb button. These live streams, I really enjoy it. Hopefully you guys do too. You know, like I said, I do it just to kind of communicate with you guys and hang out and things like that. I mean, if there's anything you guys want to talk about in particular, you can always email me. HVACRsurvival at gmail.com. Any subjects you guys want us to cover. Anybody in particular want us to go after to try to bring on whatever, you know. By all means, it's pretty much your show for the most part. So if you guys got some ideas, email it to me or whatever. And we can always go from there. So we're going to go ahead and close on out of here. So if you want to hang on, Joe, after we get done here. Yeah, sure. All right, cool. So you want to say bye, boy? Bye. Bye, guys. I appreciate you coming in. Have a good night. And we will see you on the next one. I think it'll be overtime some day. That's funny. It feels so much better. It's you in it.
