A/C shortages

Forums:

Holy Fuck

There is ver very limited supply in the USA

Rheem/Ruud

popular brand , not for me but middle of the road popular.

Not a single residential system in the entire country for another 23-24 weeks

I sell a system, call my suppliers and there is a 30% chance I can get it within a week

I'm waiting for warranty coils and compressors , units that are 2 years old, up to 11 weeks in some cases.

A month ago I replaced my 1986 unit with a new 5 ton Trane

the guy was talking about shortages then

But I thought nothing could stop a trane?

Supply Chain interruptions are brutal

That's going to make it a long august with the heat waves.   But if there are blackouts it may not matter.   

maybe we should make some shit here again?

We'd have to retrain so many Influencers, T.

i live up N. Illinois 

ive been looking to replace my AC , it ok & working, but def needs upgrade. They have been pushing rheem/ruud

our house is > RANCH small 2 bdrm , living rm, kitchen..basement provides its own cooling . send me an email addy and ill send you a consultation fee :)

thanks ! 

We just had a Goodman Factory set up shop here in Clermont.

 

 

windows in my new home were on back order for the past month, and went in today. The super told me a couple weeks ago AC would be the next hurdle. I am just glad they did not put plywood up instead of windows and continued dry walling like they are in other areas of Florida because of the window shortage

Not a fan of the Ruud Rheem product

American Standard and Trane do have the best consumer reports

To be honest with you, It's all kinda crappy one way or another.

Ameristar which is American Standards off brand is a Sherman Tank. Install 116 of them and had 5 service calls

Sure can't say that with any other brand

Don't go any higher than 16/17 SEER unless you have good solid steady electricity

Right now our 240 volts from FPL our power company is fluctuating between 224-262 volts

What does that mean Mr acid eater?

For 3 months now anything with electricity is frying and in weird ways. Like fan blades flying off of motors to compressors burning out right in front of your eyes.

Oh but it keeps you in business! Find me someone who is sober or vaccinated ad I will hire em.
