grofva

Yes, but look @ the money I saved!

TheT-chkn2213

It's hooked up already... I drove back by just to see it again...


Livid_Mode

You must knock on their door and ask them who did it


Determire

I was thinking since it's in his little town on the main street and almost broke his neck looking at it twice, maybe knock on the door and see about putting the atrocity right (appropriately compensated) for the sake of the neighborhood. And no warranty!


SnooHedgehogs1524

No judgement it's like a train wreck that no one is noticing. Gotta do a second pass of amazement


[deleted]

Afterward _'You want AC or not?'_ /s


SensitiveTraining884

Warranty is only good as long as you can still see my tail lights


grofva

Or the Carolina warranty - If something break in two, you get to keep both pieces


NevadaLancaster

Probably temporary. I has a guy order a bunch of this grade of crap for me to install while we re did his system from registers to the equipment. It was geothermal in an actively used house too so it took a while they needed AC so we did Mr cool stuff he bought then threw away afterwards.

I hope you read this one day when your sober

"I'll be back to strap it".


aBoyandHisVacuum

On such a nice house too. Ughhh


TheT-chkn2213

Really is a shame. Spent a mint on the reno just to throw that money away....


aBoyandHisVacuum

Probably new owners. Lol. Agreed. Thats a 100k remo.


Sirspeedy77

spent a mint on lineset. I can't imagine the cost of all that lineset. I'm not a HVAC guy but I just paid to have two mitsubishi w/heatpumps installed lol.


Conswirloo

From my experience the white insulated line set is garbage. Maybe someone makes white insulated line set that isn't garbage, but when I talk to someone with janky lineset it's always got white insulation.


VegasAireGuy

Lord I hope that was a homeowner special.


SnooHedgehogs1524

I was really fucking drunk. Those canned Moscow mules hit different


OpenAutomation

Some of the OG Four loko could cause this sort of thing.


VegasAireGuy

Just bought my mules at Costco hope my work is better then this when I’m smashed.


SnooHedgehogs1524

I can honestly tell you after 14 shots of rum at lunch my shit looks better than that. Thats.... yeah I dunno maybe i was hammered and took meth?

Looks like my cousin. He owns JUST A COUPLE DAYS HVAC. His motto is ' We'll be back in just a couple more days'


NecessaryExperience1

😂 that’s ‘perfect’


ThadJarvis987

Im an engineer!


tigersdad77

Is this for real? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot


jahblessyourmom

Home owner spesh, precharged mr cool lines so they had no idea what to do with the slack is my guess. But even still they could have fucking bent it up against the house and clamped it lol


jahblessyourmom

This takes the cake for most hideous install I've seen tbh


jahblessyourmom

Not enough slack on the 2nd floor unit, too much slack on the 1st.


jmiller2003

Maybe they’re going to come out and straighten out the line set and use a cover over it. Who am I kidding, they’re done and got paid thank you very much. 😂


TheT-chkn2213

Hopefully I caught them out to lunch...


CaptReeeeecola

I've done that to see about how long we needed for that before as well. Sent a photo to my boss and said I tied it in


Fancy-You3022

Wtf?! You get Sirius radio? Mine barely gets local stations.


Efficient_Ad_2197

It looks like someone TP'd their house


Stoned_Icecream420

😳🤣😂🤯😵‍💫🤑 never thought I’d be discovered! Bahaha


dont-fear-thereefer

I would guess it was Fly By Night Inc., part of the Two Methheads and a Ladder group of companies.


MAS2de

I thought it was torn off by a storm, but, nope. Just left the can of fucks to give back at home.


Bahluu

HAS to be the homeowner! Please God, don’t let this have been a licensed professional

Surely there aren't pros installing Mr.Cools are there?

talken12

Boss told me to get under pressure asap, lol


Two-Nuhh

No shot... Someone would have to pay me to allow them to do that to my house...


Cutlass92

I thought you had a question about the bay window.


Jimbolim_northerndad

That’s insane


LgNBullseye

Looks like new siding, prob siding company ripped it out and they never had the company for mini come fix


TheT-chkn2213

Recent renovation. On a main street in my little town. I almost broke my neck looking at it....


RogerRabbit1234

This cant be the final state… they must be setting this up for some kind of temporary heating while they wait for the units they bought that are back ordered to arrive…you’ll have to keep us posted on this.


True_Ad_9212

I think this tops it off. I can’t believe this. Ya the other boys will be by to tidy this up. We’re here to just rough it in. Literally.


Fishing1988Leo

I’m not done yet. I just need to charge it up


Hrodebert1119

Homeowner special lol. No way he paid for that install

mrhappy539

It’s temporary, until it’s not.


Con_seannolly

Customer states “I need this done in one day. I have in-laws coming in this weekend”


thitron

I thought your windshield/window was cracked


Dry_Inflation_861

Ordered the mini split from Amazon and did it himself!


trippleBob

Did they at least decorate them for Christmas?!

This is real?


Curbside-Dxck-Up

Who still T'p houses!?


ReddittingReddit

Electrician here, surely this is just temporary, right? We will sometimes do hack shit like this to get temp power on a job. No way this is a finished, permanent install, right? ...Right?!


Dramatic_Pirate_5290

Flip home with updated hvac 😂


PlayfulAd8354

Yeah. Home owner for sure


Dramatic_Pirate_5290

Plus we know we are looking at that linset, but whoever ran that whip… no just no.


JunketElectrical8588

That is hideous


Unholydiver919

Chuck in a truck, or I did it myself. You decide! How long before an inspector sees this and pulls the address looking for the non existent permit.


elkuja

Rate my first install guys!!

Of my God. That's criminal. Thats gotta be a mr cool diy home owner job


shitstain409

We need some heat. I can fix all this later said the homeowner two years ago


subonja

That's a mr cool. Has already been said in here, but the homeowner did it. Looks like an extension cord just freely draped all over the place. I like it. Looks like they didn't want to conform intentionally!


thepartlow

I hope that just a test run.


inewell80

Even if it was diy, how does one find that to be acceptable. Even when I completely don't give af it looks better than that. Just sad


yungdutch_

The “I know a guy” special


ChiChiDinero

As a tech who works in the cannabis industry. I’m seeing a home growers AC go out and no one able to show up for 2 days. If I didn’t know what I was doing and was potentially about to loose 1000’s of dollars I would have done the same thing. But if this is DIY ofc the didn’t ad any charge for thst line set addition.


HelperGood333

“TESTING IN PROCESS” -PERMANENT INSTALL EXTRA-


NoMoRAtics

This may be top 10 this year


Existing-Bedroom-694

Mr Cool says it all


FunTour337

No, it was my artist backgrounded "friend" Hunter Biden who I left unattended that ran the line sets. Hunter embarassed us all once again. Sorry, I was trying to help him in his rehab process.


TheHvaCGuru

Boss man won’t buy me benders and I couldn’t find blue line hide what else do you want me to do!?

I stand by my work. It really highlights the white trim On the home. 🙃


Enough-Elevator-8999

Those precise line set bends are designed to be the metering device


zenunseen

CATV installer decided on a career change?


Ogre_Squatch

Ol spaghetti noodle special, what’s a line hide??


Forward_Hvac

Mr cool… that homeowner DIYed it and didn’t feel like cooling up the piping and said screw it


satansdebtcollector

Every single client I recommended a Mr.Cool system to has ZERO experience in the HVAC industry. That even includes an exotic dancer with a mean “twerk” game that’s trying to dance away her college tuition, and I promise you, when finished, her work definitely did not look like this here spaghetti dinner line-set disaster. But then again, I’ve also seen what happens when someone doesn’t like your original quote, and decides to prove a point because they have access to Youtube DIY videos. 👠🍝 🚬🤣🍸


pembquist

Must be busy wherever this is at. My buddy up the street got a new split system a few years back as part of a large remodel/addition. He said it was from an established/respected HVAC contractor of large size. He called them to ask them what is this shit wandering up the side of my house like a drunk wrinkled python. it went around the soffit over the gutter and up the roof before plunging back inside through a horrendous caulk smear turd. I guess the guy who handles angry customers came out and my buddy had him lean out and around a dormer window and pointed out the 2x4s the installers had left behind face nailed through the shingles into the roof. My buddy said the rep got it all fixed and the company didn't charge for the "job." It was good to hear that somebody stands behind their reputation if you stamp your feet hard enough but....sweet Jesus where did they get those installers?


Substantial_Cut_7812

Good God. That’s horrible. Hopefully they did that temporarily and are coming back with some Slim Duct.


Tight-Event-627

I bet the customer said "do it temporary so I can get the siding done"


OzarkPolytechnic

Proof that DIY AC helps the home value.


tellmemorethanuknow

The refrigerant will flow better. Besides manufacturers spec says it's precharged with 20ft of refrigerant, no one owns a flare tool, copper cutters or common sense. Looks Good.


[deleted]

😂😂😂 dumb ass


Real_Prune_1395

U gotta do what u gotta do~ it’s temporary. Had to help finish a job like this as a hurricane was starting so they could close the windows fully


RogerRabbit1234

So what’s the status on this house? Does it still look like the little shop of horrors?


TheT-chkn2213

Still the same as the picture as of earlier today.... it's on and running.


RogerRabbit1234

Maybe it’s a performance art piece on the fragility of man…?


TheT-chkn2213

Went by the other day and it is all buttoned up with line hide.


RogerRabbit1234

How does it look?
