Oh.... and my downstairs unit died and they are coming Saturday to install the new unit I bought through the company. Upstairs unit is hanging in there!

That's not true...

Morning IB.
While true, the problem with your selections is that I do not care to listen
to those types of human waste providers.

I watch the weather reports to try and plan my future day schedules, and then I give it a 50/50 chance of happening, much the same as the forcasts turn out.

Check out Weather Underground.
I've been using it for years and have found it to be very reliable.

I'm dreading the trip home since it'll be a sauna when get back.
Some day I'll partition some barn off, insulate and have AC... Or not.

Lots of projects waiting for me also.

When I put the Mazda back together I pulled a vacuum and charged it myself. Cars are easy, just put in the number of ounces they say and make sure the return is sweating. R410a is different in residential and I don't have the electronic gages which makes it a lot easier to calculate the sub cooling temp. Plus I don't silver solder very well.....

I have everything at home to do various ac systems and son been helping me for years so he knew the processes to follow. Shop cost for ac compressor and vac/refill 800 to 1k now so we do everything on them.
He has 120 bucks in compressor, drier and freon. I rebuilt the last one and front seal failed after a few weeks of course.
It was his first big project on his own.

I bought a 25 pound jug of R410a off of one of the guys at my office and it was right at $500. If a tech came to your house they'd charge you $80-$100 per pound.

That's a hell of a deal...

It shows how much mark up is in the residential HVAC market. When you can go to Grainger or order a start capacitor online and it cost you $25 (or less)... a residential company will sell it to you for $125.... oh... plus their truck charge of $150 just to show up.

I'm not against making an honest profit but some of the residential companies around here are making a killing off of their up sale tactics. Always get more than one estimate!!
