This company pays the techs COMMISSION based on the “revenue” they bring in. That’s why these “salestechs” would just do the quickest and sloppiest work you will ever see! AND they will sell the customer a bunch of USELESS junk like Surge Supressors and Zerol …

Great stuff…my only suggestion would be to remember us old guys who can’t read so fast…
Excellent soundtrack.

BGreenHVAC He clearly said it was a mistake.BTW…it’s some of the many issues,NOT…some or the many issues.

Do you people go around the internet,waiting for some one to slip up,and use bad grammar???Most people type so fast they don’t really think about it.If you are such a good speller,join a spelling bee.

I started out laughing,but by the end of the video I was very upset.The 90’s installed on all the drain pans had to be the best though.LMAO Could you imagine all the units that have been changed out due to these hacks misdiagnosing compressors?
November 29th, 2009 at 6:56 am
Good show about showing some or the many issues out there. But I find it ironic that you mock the uneducated while misusing words.
Piece work not Peace work. There is an enormous difference.

The schools in AZ are not that great, it wouldnt suprise me if they were graduates.
December 7th, 2009 at 8:48 am
This is some jacked up stuff. No p trap on the primary drain, no float switch in the pan, no supply plenumn on the one unit just flex tied on near the heat exchanger.I can see a no cooling call now because the txv will not open.

do you mean that the airconditioner will fail with out the capasitor?
December 15th, 2009 at 7:26 am
can an air conditioner run without a capasitor?
December 17th, 2009 at 5:27 am
Thanks. Seems that hacks make it everywhere. We are just blessed with a epidemic of them here in phoenix.
December 20th, 2009 at 5:59 am
Nice video, I think i might start snapping some pics of the hack jobs I see daily here in Bakersfield.
December 20th, 2009 at 6:09 am
well is what i ment was i run into these types off residential Hacks on commercial jobs posing as journeymen sheetmetal workers, they buy there Union Card and go right to work hack slash hack slash its gross and insulting to Real Craftsman.
December 21st, 2009 at 3:26 am
I’m in the Union now. But it has less than 1% of the HVAC force within it.
The current company actually does good at getting hours to do **** right. And the techs are trained.
That sounds crazy how those guys had that Applebees wired.
December 23rd, 2009 at 11:39 pm
Cards?
Most of these guys have no training except a little on the job.
The company can take a tech, train him how to SELL hard starts, t-stats and filter. Then send him out on jobs (mostly residential) and never have to prove to anyone that they know what they are doing. They can touch refer, electrical AND plumbing here. Every once in a while a distributor might want to make sure you have an EPA card. And $30 and a little test gets you that.
December 26th, 2009 at 9:26 am
I didn’t stay there long enough after this stuff to see what happened.
I was already there trying to make it work when they just installed this.
They had a half dozen goofy commercial accounts that would drive a tech insane because of the bad access alone.
December 29th, 2009 at 5:15 pm
fuck man these fucks all payed for there Cards and now install on commercial union jobs man hahah fucken card buyers hahah and the companies love this shit
December 30th, 2009 at 5:13 pm
company just took there money.
I just can believe people would think half that stuff would work. Packaged unit in an attic? ha, i laughed. No way it will be able to keep up in the Summer. Plus, how much moisture did it create up there? Did mold grow?

Does Arizona have any hvac unions? Here in Chicago that would NEVER pass. I strictly do commercial/industrial hvac/r. My company just took over all 39 Applebees in the Chicagoland area. It took us 2 months to get everything up and running normally. The old company would bypass all the safties. They wired the compress to come on first then when the blower motor came on, the condesor fans came on. I like walking into accounts like this because i get hours and I can prove the customer that the last

Please do. Attach it as a video reply. That would be great from a home owners perspective.
January 5th, 2010 at 7:45 pm
