One I Had To Walk Away From!

alrighty guys we are here at this uh abandoned house I guess oh I'm not liking what I'm seeing already uh all I've I don't really have much to go off of all I know is that uh it's not cooling 89 degrees in here I think that is already a problem that might be our problem we've got O and B connected so I don't know where the air handler is oh it must be right here wow a four ton Goodman these this thing is massive and if the breaker turned off up here look at how small that plenum is this is oh my goodness wow okay okay all right all right all right one other thing I noticed is uh there's a set of gauges hooked up to this unit or at least sitting over by the unit and a whole bunch of refrigerant drums along with the panel just sitting there so I don't know really what I've gotten myself into however I really don't like it I want to get out of here so badly so let's change the fuse because I'm sure it's blown and put that panel back on and see what else needs to be done looks like we have had fuse problems in the past oh maybe not these are the new ones I think so yeah but who's to say Transformer looks like it's probably been changed I don't know there's a whole bunch of stuff in here that I do not quite understand there's a 5 amp fuse in it now first I guess we're gonna see if there's any power no it doesn't look like there is our fuse is still good however I am going to switch it out with one of these three amp fuses I'm going to change this out with a 3 amp fuse if you check this wiring here we've got Let's uh set this guy down against all those copper edges I guess someone must have placed this thermostat and just like everybody else who doesn't really know what they're doing when replacing them they just stuck them in whatever they assumed was right I got Brown going to e whatever I'm just going to leave it like that oh my God all right I guess we'll go flip the breaker and just see what happens all right three two one please don't blow up I think I heard the outside the outside unit is running I'm actually really surprised but that fan is not running why is our fan not running [Music] you know what I bet you this the contactor yeah that's exactly what that is contractors chattering this thing's a lost cause I really don't even want to be in here all right well here's our condenser stalker's huge there's several Drums of 410A it's been sitting here for a very long time you get a contactor I think someone probably was just changing parts trying to get something to work hoses for the uh these old set of gauges don't know I don't even know [Applause] there's no gas in the system so the high voltage for the condenser is just hanging out I mean this is just how it's been I don't understand and the main panel is just open I'd be like that for a grounding wire I think I'm gonna have to walk away from this one I am not even gonna be bothered to try there is no sense in it this house has been abandoned for a long time realtor company is what wanted us to fix this and I think they're really going to have to just bite the bullet and buy a new one I am not really going to waste my time and energy into fixing this piece of junk I'm just gonna call it a day I'm gonna see how many cfms the house has been ducted for you know roughly and then I am going to just get out of here they've got this real fancy uh looking sinks and uh countertops and in their shower which has got this nice Stone looking marble and whatever and this whole setup holy crap I just counted up all of the ducts and got a rough estimate I think that this house is roughed uh ducted for a hair over two tons so I am just gonna give them a quote to replace the system um I don't know what the realtor company is going to want to do given the condition of the rest of this house they I mean but you can't sell a house without air conditioning at least not in Florida you sure can so I don't know exactly what they're going to want to do I don't know anyway I'm gonna pick up my stuff sanitize all of my tools and I'm gonna hope and pray that I never see this house ever again see you guys in the next one
