I’d like to see wet rag or heat blocking compound used more often in your videos. But I do appreciate the real world no cut action.

It truly is refreshing to see an experienced technician give a real picture start to finish of this type of job. Homeowners can start to get a true picture of what it takes to repair an AC unit and may come to appreciate and understand when they get the bill they receive

Great job Curtis, I had a feeling from the start it was the TXV. Didn’t make sense that pressures were fine in one direction but not the other. It’s great to see a full video from diagnostic to repair. Thank you!

Another great video Curtis! I was wondering how long it was before you remembered the contactor control wire was off.

What ever was in there was definitely keeping the txv from doing its job in heat mode I wish I knew what was in there floating

IMPORTANT PLEASE READ. <br><br>Curtis, pricing is great, videos are awesome, good troubleshooting skills, however, PLEASE have better hygiene for your refrigerant hoses. I've seen multiple videos where you just throw them on the ground and then dig the dirt out. Remember the old saying hospital operating room clean? HORC. I mean you really could be the reason why the next tech that comes by and thinks the refrigerant is low or it is low, and adds some refrigerant forcing in the dirt that you introduced into the system when you connected dirty hose connections. It's very very small orifices that can be fouled as you well know, so it doesn't take much. I've been a unlimited mechanical contractor for over 3 decades and taught refrigeration technology at two junior colleges so I am a little OCD LOL. Keep up the good work and thanks for the videos I'm retired and it makes me want to get back out in the field so for that I'm thankful that I can just watch it instead of actually really getting out there haha.

when ur compressor is still holding refrigerant in the oil tap around the base with a hammer 🔨 and it will speed up the recovery.
