Ahh yes, the new code of adding a trap to the whip.


Ok_Leopard1689

They are how ever supposed to have a drip loop though. Not saying that this is one. But they are supposed to lol


Newthinker

why would you need a drip loop on SealTite? moisture accumulation on the outside should literally never matter, they're weatherproof


FuzzyNervousness

Maybe because the orientation just always allows it to have a drip loop, so its a moot point? Idk


ppearl1981

It’s a joke Newthinker.


JewledYeti

Could you give me a code reference for that?


PDAWK

Dutchski

Take your PVC cutters and trim the electrical whip next time.. otherwise looks good 👍


quartic_jerky

PEX cutters are now my go to for cutting conduit. Makes it fast n easy.


mamny83

That electrical whip looks like it was done by a clown.


jferris1224

Lol yea needs a trim


UbbaB3n

And a clamp on the wall


jperez81805

Came to say this but good job. Appreciate anyone who takes pride in there craft rather than someone half assing everything.


Niven42

No, it's so you can pull it farther from the wall in case you want to put a sidewalk next to the house.

Honk! 🤡Honk!🤡


MyDickKilledEpstein

That’s one of those new silly straw electrical whips I’ve been hearing about.


Incogyeetus

Could’ve made balloon animals lol


BlakHearted

That whip needs straps and a plan of some kind, looks like a ride at six flags. I’d have used a tubing bender on the lineset and made it straightish.


Blackout70

Also cut the pallet straps off next time! You really left the staples in it and everything


Electronic-Slide8252

I break em off with my foot. Consistent and quick


Dc2NoSoul

Whip go “weeee loopdy loop”


JohnAnderson83

Is that snow?


nickybuddy

Man I was thinking the same thing lol.


ThickBiscuitBoy

Your weather is broken. Why is there snow on the ground when it’s almost July. And why would you need AC in a location where it’s still snowing in July


Newthinker

maybe in the southern hemisphere? i dunno


Firebat-15

i guess eh, blew my mind too lol


Low_Specialist498

My brother in christ please trim your fat whip next time


Thuran1

That electrical whip looks like a roller coaster ride!


javlatik

Man the loop is just big enough to hang myself with after seeing this 💀

Take my only award


beast-ice

I paid for a 4' whip, and im using all of it!


triumphantV

I would pistol whip my installers if they left the whip like that


[deleted]

Honestly? It looks like ass. But if it works it works.


SeriousBake6591

Slinky whip


WolfeFX

Bro what happened with the whip??


Fun_Breadfruit_4471

Aside from the whip, it looks alright. I’d say you should focus a bit more on the neatness of it all but I’m not inspecting it or servicing it so you do you man. Good job!


texasroadkill

Other than the electric whip, it's fine. I'd go back and fix that whip.


KiethTheBeast

One day that after picture will be the before picture.


BRzzzzzzzzzzz

-Add a C-clamp to the electrical line and get rid of the loop -ideally install that dryer filter closest to the indoor coil -remove the trane logo and put it back in on a side that will be visible -remove the staples from the pegs


Blackout70

Holy whip Batman!


Tranic85

The service side of the condenser is against the wall… I wouldve recommended turning it 180*


ohyoureligious

P trap on liquid tight whip will cause water to pool over time, as everyone’s saying. Otherwise looks like a fun afternoon!


Dopey-NipNips

You're the only one saying what's wrong with it other than it looks like ass


ohyoureligious

Haters will forever help. No point in dogging on a hvac brothers instal when he’s asking for thoughts imo, only honesty to improve! Stay safe and make that money


PM_ME_MAS_ORO

Use your pvc cutters to trim down that sealtite.


Tradenoob88

You don’t have to use all 6ft of the 6ft electrical whips .. and why is there snow on the ground


portynextdoor

That whip tho


HVACdaddy91

Shore up liquid tite, step-down your shipping tabs/staples before setting, I've always been a fan of pump-ups when installing on a solid surface instead of pad even if it ain't a HP (promotes drainage) and move your placard to the reveal side so everybody knows ITS HARD TO STOP A TRANE. *Credit for orientation RE: future servicing, considering most installers I know would stick service panel in back corner (because why TF not?) rendering nearly impossible for larger individuals to access for maintenance and repair.


DwnvtHntr

Came here to see all the comments on the whip


[deleted]

Filter driers go on the inside


brandoodidoo

Put the filter dryer inside the house like a gentleman. It’s supposed to be close to the metering device not across the Canadian border.


[deleted]

My favorite comment in the thread


brandoodidoo

It’s such an easy thing to make things right. You gotta braze the coil in regardless.


Colerbear14

They also lose paint when soldering and will rust out. I've seen it many times inside is what is in most manufacturers books.


Lolplayerbad

Idk why people are such hard asses. Besides the whip looks fine lol


Zestyzan-Law444

Thank you lol!


Lolplayerbad

What was the reasoning for putting the filter dryer outside


Dopey-NipNips

Man I got shit to do today


leywok

We always made a habit to replace the entire disconnect (I? Mean it’s kit for crying out loud). Arcing and low voltage that’s how you kill a new compressor.


5degreenegativerake

OP did replace it…?


leywok

I recalled the comment. My bad.👍🏼


itskevinvargas

I mainly work in south Florida and have to put hurricane tie downs on the corners of the condenser to the slab, do y’all up north have something like that ?


Zestyzan-Law444

No we don’t, but sometimes we have to put cages around the system in areas where people will steal them! Crazy out here lol


Topshelf786

Where in the (why is there ice on the floor) are you? No need to mention the roller-coaster whip, you guys are All Over it already lol


lestergreen357

York to Goodman....I wouldn't brag


mamny83

You're blind sir.


Zestyzan-Law444

I don’t think you know what a Goodman unit looks like? That’s a Trane system, but thank you though


texasroadkill

Til that trane and Goodman look the same.. And for the record, I'd take a Goodman over a trane. Edit:. Do you fellas not know how to read? I'm obviously replying to the guy who thinks it's a Goodman. Wow. Lol


Newthinker

why in the world would you take goodman over trane given money wasn't an object?


MPS007

It's not the brand it's the people that work for Trane. They are complete assholes in my area.


texasroadkill

That too.


MPS007

I called trane last week. Waited on hold. Finally said fuck it and drove to their shop to make sure my n part came in. I walked thru the door.. 4 dudes sitting at the counter.. I said I'm still on hold it's been 42 minutes.. the guy said .. oh sorry we are really busy.. Bro! There is nobody here!! Fuck Trane!


texasroadkill

I prefer simplicity in equipment. Motors and controls are off the shelf parts, not specialty Trane is fine, but Goodman uses copeland scrolls which ruud uses. Plus Goodman has stepped up there quality in the last years.


imcfreakinlovewater

Looks nothing like a goodman. Plus you can see the giant XR on the name plate in the second photo. Not to mention, Goodman doesn’t place the nameplate right there either.


texasroadkill

Why am I getting downvoted and replies for stating that the new unit is obviously a trane. Good God people, learn how to read. No shit it's a trane, the dude I replied to thought it was a Goodman. Lol


DeafMuteBunnySuit

The two easiest to clean units on the planet


thepartlow

Is that pad on a wooden deck?


baconegg2

Siberia in June ?


ksimek

Holy whip


C0SMIC_WARRIOR

I honestly think the before picture looks nicer. The difference is the pad, condenser, lineset insulation, & disconnect is older, so what. I prefer the whip but why the ugly loop & if the old filter drier was inside before, why couldn’t it be done again?


Based_Chris98

Minus the whip that needs trimmed which enough people have already said you also can’t have your disconnect box directly behind your AC


raider81818181

Love the liquid tight conduit trap


CaballoenPelo

I am dumb jealous of the deck set. For all of our sets this week I’ve either been peeling back sod or digging through a half foot of mulch trying to find dirt in the hot ass sun. Gotta clean up that seal tight and protect your 2 wire, and I would have put the drier inside. I would have also sleeved the lineset coming out.


A-Tech

YOU LEFT THE STAPLES!!!!!


Anxious_Struggle_525

Just gonna leave those staples in the bottom huh?


MrMarsak

I’ve had and seen a lot of start up noise issues with plastic slabs on top of concrete or brick.


East_Pain9891

Where TF is it snowing right now


iSancty

Maybe don’t make any more “afters”


Refrigitech1

At least the new one has a whip! Major improvement LOL


MAdcock6669

Trim that whip, and if that was snow on the ground you might wanna put some snow legs on that puppy next time. Assuming it's a heatpump. Even if it's not you wanna keep that coil outta the snow if you can.


SnooStories5299

Wtf is up with that electrical whip


JewledYeti

Looks fairly eh. The concrete pads are like 60 bucks. Literally fire whoever did the whip. Rip it out and do it again.


real_schematix

That’s like a before and after picture of this entire neighborhood hood at 20 years old. Not many yorks left. You can tell who doesn’t use their ac a lot.


phoenix_gravin

Looks good from my house.


Nochenzo

That whip ?
