The AC just broke again (10/19/2021). Hopefully this 3rd time it's failed since I made this video it's still as simple as just cleaning all the crap out! Wish me luck π€

Was a HVAC tech for 8 years. Fixed many a unit with just a water hose.

OMG +DIGGLER tipped $50 right before the Premiere ended so YouTube didn't let me thank him! That was damn nice of you bro π Please reply below if you see this DIGGLER π

Only Jerry could make me watch a video about fixing an AC and love it. Glad youβre back on the tubes man

I hope you guys learned a valuable lesson from this video that can help you keep from throwing away a perfectly good AC like I almost did. I highly recommend you invest in a dolly so you don't kill your back trying to move around super heavy stuff like I did. If you guys like this content and want to see more like it along with my other nerdy content (coming up next is Nintendo Switch Lite unboxing) please hit that Subscribe button and enable notifications π Again, super huge thank you to my Patrons (patreon.com/barnacules) for their help cutting the RAW video down from 28 minutes to this 13 minute faster paced video. Couldn't have done it without them and that's why I included every last one of them in the end credit sequence π UPDATES: - After 2 full days of operation it's working flawlessly, got the room down to 62f just to see if it could do it π - No more frosting, people said that it's a bad thing so I pulled the front off and absolutely no frost now, I suspect it was just after starting it up after being off for 24 hours sitting - Lots of people recommended chemical cleaners to make the process so much faster, I'll certainly get these next time! - Before the repair the compressor would kick on, then right back off. I almost threw this thing away and now it's working like new - I noticed the compressor doesn't stay on nearly as long as it did in the past, now it just kicks on for a few minutes then keeps blowing cold air. This is cutting noise down a lot - I won't let it go this long without a cleaning ever aga

He didn't install it 4 years ago, that was like 3 months ago.... damn it was 4 years ago.

The front "radiator" is actually called a evaporator core and the back one is called a condenser. But yes; if those two items are clogged; it won't perform as efficiently as it can. But enjoyed the video man; As always keep up the great work you do and till next time May the Force be with you.
-
Bro, has it been 4 years ? I remember watching the AC install video but never realized it was 4 years ago. I donβt know why but both these videos were highly enjoyable. Keep it up.
-
He is always trying to fix things that are inside of windows.

People need to lose the disposable culture mentality and reduce, reuse, and reuse some more haha, thanks for making videos for so many years man, you are a special, wonderful person.
-
as an HVAC apprentice I would like to say that you actually did a decent job of cleaning your air conditioner and it seems like you have more knowledge of the subject than most people. I enjoyed watching this video
-
Thatβs you!!!! Years later and youβre still helping. I was kinda at a loss lol. I did all I could think of.
-
The best quality DIY on internet that I found. Measuring the temp before and after is what made me do it. And like you said "a clogged ac is nothing more than a glorified fan" lmao ty so much !
-
Dude you should've kept that crud that came off of the radiator fins. Right now would be a smart time to collect and preserve any potential meal
-
I find them in the trash every year I clean them and wait till summer then sell them for top dollar! It's like free money!
-
Honestly man I pretty excited to see you back making videos again. I love your DIY projects and laughing pretty hard during the process. Keep up the great work man!
-
Glad to see you back at it and in good spirits, man! I miss your DIYGasms and your regular nerd content! Stay positive, my friend!

9:58 The brain image is reversed LOL π
-
Wow, only you, Jerry, can entertain me for 13 minutes by cleaning an air conditioner. Good job lol
-
Youβre a chieftain for both the DIY and the humble moments where you admit shortcomings. Well done good sir.
