Great job man you are a honest technician and we need about 10000 more of them just like you.

You sir are a good service tech. You do not pad her bill with things she didnt need. Imwith you ,the unit was down due to the cap. Othing more. No need to guage up if not needed. One guy on here,i wont .ention any names but went to service a unit ,system was running ,he checked cap and it was with in spec but still sold her a cap and chargedher over 140 for cap. Plus charged her 80 bucks for coil cleaner and all the unit neededwas washed out with water. You do great reputable work.

I agreed, the new refrigerant change to A2L is just going to cost customers and us service companies more. But the elite few will see higher profits.

I purchased the same capacitor tester you use and it works great. I tested the new ones I gave in stock at home. I actually have every electrical component needed to get it up and running if I have a problem. I went with all oem parts or equivalent.

Aww! That’s the same trane unit I have but hers is a little bit older because it has the older brown relay and mine is the white one. I cleaned both coils inside and outside and the system is working great. 👍🏼

What does a service call labor charge only for cap replacement in your part of country? My local authorized Trane company was out to do our member included 6 month tune up and found bad capacitor that was covered under partial 10 year warranty (parts only).The labor charge was $240.00. The unit is 9 years 7 months old. Trane 2.5 ton XR15. I live in Kentucky 41051 area of country.

All I could add to the advise to the customer is asking their gardener to trim those bushes/plants back two feet so they can avoid leaves and pine needles. The rest is all a fair shake. Just a cap so why keep digging for something if its working like always. It'll keep running for years and years now that its made it this far. I'm not sure what the changes are with the A2L gas other than they are flammable. I wonder it will carry the heat as equal or better than 410 does. 410 compared to R22 required much more condenser and evap area to do the same job as R22 did. Just like newer cars that went to 134a from R12. There was a huge difference in cooling capacity when they moved over to 134a and had to develop larger and more complete condensers and evaporators to keep up.

Do these caps just burn out from usage / age? I'm asking because about a year ago our Trane heat pump (XR15 - installed 2013) wasn't cooling and the tech came inside to check the air handler then went outside and probably ten minutes later comes back inside and says, "You're good. The caps were bad and I replaced them." - he said to give him a call if it's not cooling down. I think he was in our driveway doing paperwork / eating lunch or who knows but before he left we already had cool air coming out.

The trend is more concessions with flammability in exchange for less environmental impact. The changes are getting annoying. I feel like we should just go straight to propane, as it seems that's where we're headed.

I ain’t mad at you Ted! I believe that you have met the consumer’s needs by getting this particular unit back in service with a fair minimum of repair items to bill for. I’m convinced that the salesman in you presented a fair case for replacement before the laws change. I do hope you shared the potential maintenance cost of 410A after the phaseout.

I am very much in agreement, especially with regard to the refrigerant circuit. It's just tempting fate to gauge up on an older system when it is otherwise performing reasonably. With regard to the whole R-32 flammable refrigerant thing, you're already using it -- it's part of the R-410A formulation.

Glad it wads a simple fix I think most of what happens is the caps going bad. I studyed HVAC in the early 90's when they first started the EPA Test. They were open book back then. I just put in my garage apt I live in a 410A Dakin mini split was on a Train R22 system from 2003. Why are they changing to another system from 410A seems like its not been that long, maybe 10 years they killed out R22
