This was a major undertaking for someone who has never installed an HVAC. 👏🏼 👏🏼 Hats off to you 👏🏼

[dangkolache]

As someone who lives in TX and didn't give up on their hvac before it gave up on me (in August no less), I think you made the right move to take care of it now!

What I really appreciate about your videos is that you show the entire process *including* all your fails. Learning from mistakes is always a good way to remember important things. Learning from other people's mistakes is even better - thanks for your sacrifice 😅

[edgell]

Glen, I have been watching your videos for several years and this one by far is your best yet.👍👍👍👍 a major successful undertaking. At 73 years old I have undertook some challenges, but nothing like this. GREAT JOB especially doing it single handed. I have always liked your narration and explanations, as well as sharing your mistakes. A BIG THANK YOU and please keep making your videos.😊😎

[EUC-lid]

Thanks for including the part where you bent up the original lines. It’s such a relatable mistake. 😅

Looking forward to your slab video.

Also, I love that you wear the appropriate gear for electricity, sheet metal (sleeves), and even the sun.

You’re so humble about your skills and abilities, and willing to share your journey and mistakes. It’s so incredibly refreshing to see it on YouTube. Bravo!

[WisconsinWanderer]

Yep that’s how I approach a large project in sections otherwise I get overwhelmed and the project suffers. Appreciate your tenacity in your approach, I’m learning from you and I appreciate that more than you know. thanks my friend 😊

"It was a major undertaking but I was learning something new." This is why I subscribe to this channel!

[MychaeltoddRH]

That would be an intimidating project for many humans, you are brave , and do excellent work. Please post more projects.

[aliens]

you did an amazing work with the camera as well everything was so sharp and clear!

Dang man, Good job! I just recently did my own mini-split AC install for my garage, but I cheated by having my friend who is a professional HVAC dude help out. He made me do most of the work, so I learned a ton in the process and woooo boy, walking out in my 72 degree garage when its 100 degrees outside is so satisfying! These heatpumps are ultra efficient, too! While my main central 3.5 Ton HVAC kicks in, it sucks down 4200 watts the entire time it runs, where the garage mini-split unit sips juice to maintain temps, usually average between 400 and 1000 watts.

Brother, you have way too many blessings for me to mention! Thank you very much for taking the time to video all of the many steps. May God bless you and yours.

[baxt]

I’m so impressed! huge undertaking and the job looks very professionally done. Good job not cutting corners (at least according to my knowledge and eyes lol)

[angeloking]

Great job. You are a inspiration for people like me. I just gained so much confidence from watching that tough hvac install. Please keep doing what you are doing and please keep more videos coming. Thanks for sharing!!

[jamaxit]

I wish we were neighbors. We could get a lot of cool projects done. We could learn and teach each other some really awesome projects. You always do great creative work!

[parzdiver]

Wow. You nailed it. That’s a huge job as a first timer. Loved seeing your methodology and hearing your thought process. Great job.

[abdulhaffizumar]

Amazing effort, the best bit about your videos is how real, transparent, and open you are about the process, successes and failures. Your videos inspired me into DIY and i have definitely grown into it over the years. Ball up top bro!!!

[VSKULLS]

Brother I too live in S.E. Florida, my friend God Bless you. You know the absolute heat/sweat you went thru to install that unit. Very nice job installing all of that. And it's nice to know you did it & learned how to install an HVAC unit. Take care and Fellow neighbor

[vinylcabasse]

dude, this is amazing. thank you for going into such level of detail. have watched at least a handful of videos on the topic but no others took the extra effort to really show what's going on.

[MatthewPierce]

great video. That's a big big big job. Just as a friendly note. The Nylog sealer is intended to be used on the mating surfaces of the flare fittings. You did a fantastic job.

[jfinaz]

Yeah, that's a big first time job, kudos to you, and by yourself! I usually enjoy the demob part, the alarm is wanting the install to go 100% well. It doesn't often happen that way, but you're still a couple grand ahead on that job, so 2 thumbs up on that 👍👍
