Homemoaner and the cost of freon

You're welcome. Wish we lived closer, I'm sure we'd be friends.

Thanks for the kind response.

I just dropped by to see how the beer-chugging-wife-beaters are doing. Nothing has changed I see.

And you're still a Liar!

Are you not *still* here... looks like you haven't grown up much. lol

Yes, he's just as clueless as you, you'd make a nice couple!

Stormy learn, Bahahahahahahaha.... thanks for the laugh!

Leaking system, and you're going to reuse the existing refrigerant??? Even after installing a *new* evap???

That's not a smart practice!

It shouldn't hurt *IF* the refrigerant level didn't get low enough to pull the suction side below ambient pressure, *AND* there is a filter/drier installed. Otherwise, best to recover the entire refrigerant charge, replace the evap, install a new filter/drier (flow N2 while brazing), vacuum the system down to 400 microns, re-charge with virgin refrigerant, and balance the charge with subcooling and superheat. No it can't be done in an hour.... to do the job right, its going to take an average of 4 hours.

And yet you still reply! LOL

Obviously no need to add /replace filter dryer do I have to explain every minute detail ?

Curious what makes you think this--it was never left open...and there was no mention of it displaying symptoms of moisture in nor was there any sign indicating probable contamination with other refrigerant.

Quick - sent me to the burn ward! That was a real hot burn .......

Or the posibility of the LP side going below ambient pressure and putting moisture, air, and non condensibles into the system??? It doesn't have to be left open to do this..... and what makes you thing that the system had a proper vacuum pulled on it when it was commissioned in the first place?? How do we know that it wasn't installed by the lowest bidder??

Remove all doubt and do it right.....or does that make too much sense??

Whats funny is watching your banter. Its nothing new, mind you but just funny. We are not gods, you say? Yeah, you all say that. Wait till its Sat night, zero degrees outside and your house is 40 degrees inside. You will be the first to call, whine, bitch, complain and beg to get one of the "hvac gods" out to your home because you have an elderly person in the home or a baby or someone with a heart condition. You'll promise to pay anything and everything to get it fixed "RIGHT NOW". Then when the "hvac god" shows up that night, fixes it and hands you the bill you will be the first one to bitch holly hell about how much you just got soaked for. You are nothing new in here. We've seen the likes of you a million times over. Now you may go away. Bubba

That's what space heaters are for. Oh thank the Gods! BTW, I have a fireplace too.

You really do believe the bs don't you? Get a clue...you're not a neurosurgeon and HVAC isn't rocket science. Yeah we appreciate you know what you're doing but I also appreciate when my gardener does a good job and he does not have his head up his ass.

Now you think you're God of Usenet too?

Bubba you are a classic! Thank you for that! It's all worth while now.

LOL

For you Bubba...for you:

Yeah, only the highest bidder pulls a proper vacuum. :)

Ambient pressure.... lol

FYI a system doesn't have to go into a vacuum to draw in moisture.

Awww... It'll be OK once he strains it through an old felt hat. ;-)

Dont kid yourself olddoggy. You would be one of the loudest whinners.

Its not rocket science but look where you come when you need help. Right here to get answers from us rocket scientists. If I need a good neurosurgeon, I dont care if his head is in his ass or hanging from a nipple. As long as he does a good job for me. Face it. You dont have a clue when it comes to hvac. Sorry bout your luck. Its warm in my house. Bubba

No, I think thats been established long ago that that title goes to Paul.

Yes I am, arent I? Does this mean you are jealous? Dog, you are such a fun pull toy. I dont think Ive had such fun in a long time. Bubba

Funny stuff...watch the clip. BTW: My furnace works fine. My a/c works fine. I'm just contemplating the inevitable.

I'll admit in away I'm jealous. I would like to do the job myself. If the timing is right my daughter-in-law might help me. She's an HVAC apprentice. Maybe when she ready she'll help me do it. But she's going to have to work on her vocabulary. No doubt she'll have to learn to cuss like a sailor to do the job right.

;-)
