I really hope you see this. I want to say I appreciate you so much. My husband and I really didn't know much about building anything, wiring anything, or plumbing. My family and I bought a lot of land and we are doing a shed to house conversion. My husband it's handy either. lol Your videos have helped us buy the right things and we have started our build out. I feel confident that we can do this because of how informative your videos are! I really want you to know how much I appreciate you and how you have been a big part of making our shed a home. We are also able to teach our 14 year old son and 16 year old daughter how to help finish there lofts out as well to make it there own.

Ty ty ty so so much! I work with a home warranty company processing authorization claims for homeowners for the contractor to do the work needed and understanding all of the HVAC systems and changing this out to be compatible with that has been alot for me to fully understand. You helped me a TON with this video and you should DEF do many more videos as you do an AMAZING job explaining it in super simple ways to make it easier to understand. So, again, ty!

I just into HVAC and it’s A LOT being thrown at me at one time. The only at that you explained this is PHENOMENAL! You definitely EARNED a subscriber, thank you!

Can you do detailed video on how to setup the system and run ducts ? . When I say detailed, is as detailed as your video of you running electrical in rooms. I wired my entire addition and passed code using your videos

Ik this was 2 years ago but I'm watching cause this field to me is interesting n very helpful that I would know how to be my own hvac technician. One marlin thing I learned was seer which is seasonal energy efficiency rate. This I would keep in mind d for when I go to a trade. This is some basic info appreciate u bro❤.

[timothysears]

I never knew about vent placement, thank you!

[fuegoman]

Thanks brother. Another great video 🤙🏼

[Lemonades]

Great video thanx. I plan on doing my home myself. I am just getting into the Hvac field and I am Universal certified, so I can handle refrigerant.

Great video!! The Disconnect for the condenser is illegal though. 3ft of clearance. I'm an electrician learning HVAC, I really appreciate your videos. 😊

[robertoleeva]

dude great vid, and great voice color. I learned a lot by watching this.

[thebluelunarmonkey]

awesome, a condenser that doesn't have the line filter installed inside the compressor housing. When that filter gets too rusty, put it inside near the evap to keep it out of the weather and getting rusty and leaking. Think you'll be happy with 5 ton in 3k sq ft, if not you can tweak it by reducing static pressure (using a freer flowing filter or adding supply/return plenums), converting to conditioned crawlspace, insulating like with heat control film on select windows, and rafter vent baffles in the attic to keep the attic cooler. Did you get a Manual J done, since the house was still under construction?

Hey Josh, what region are you in? I’m assuming the Southeast based on how the system was run? I enjoyed the video! Thank you!

[davidkanyok]

Hey man, should there be a register or air intake in the return air down by a unit in the basement pre 95 homes ?

[paolahidalgo]

Hi, Where are you located, and what it is the name of the HVAC that helped you with you project? Thank you.

[silvergrizzly]

Hey Josh, I'm curious to why you didn't run the flex vent thru the entire ceiling, maybe cost?

And my house is 1756 sq ft. and with my heat pump it runs around $160 a month, when we've had nice consistent weather in the past I have had our power bill down to $58 in one month, but very rare occasions😆
Awesome video my friend. Jay 👍 👍

Hey Josh, I've read many times that the most comfortable heating system for residential use is a radiant hydronic system; with hot water run through a concrete floor slab or with baseboard units. Why is it so rarely used? Do people in your area use it?
