  1. American lax building regulations LOL…. Even somewhere as backwards as North Korea if someone built a roof gutter and let it deposit water against the walls you would never ever be allowed to work in construction again…..

  2. 15:40 I would have had the AC drip line fall into a basin rather than being tied into the main. Just in case the line were ever blocked up, and for cleaning out the line in the future. Otherwise, amazing install!

  3. Well, it's been a while since the boys were all together on the same job, as always great teamwork and excellent results, shout outs to the crew Jeremy and the main man Ronald keep at it guys good work blessings.

  4. i really miss seeing your drainage video's hope they pick back up but still like see your other ones to

  5. Time in AC technician on in Florida that's would not pass code tying into your drain for the air conditioning Air conditioning condensate line needs to be several suitable on outside the building when the drain line gets clogged you have no access to unclog it so I don't know if that's no

  6. Thx for the videos… I’ve learnt a lot by following you. I have a similar condensate line issue … now I have an idea on how to solve it! Thank you

    One question … if the main pipe gets a blockage, it looks like the next lowest outlet point (for the backed up water), would be through the sump pump line, and into the house … is that correct? Would adding a catchment basin somewhere in the lawn solve the problem?

  7. No substitute for having the right tools and most importantly…..the experience to use them to the fullest

  8. As always its a joy to watch you do these jobs, the care that is taking in to getting the water out is outstanding!

  9. As always an excellent video and very informative. I was explaining to my mother about the issues your customers were having with storm water and how their neighbors are allowed to dump their storm water onto your customers property. We were quite glad neighbors cannot do that in New Zealand. It would make a huge mess with our high rainfall

  10. FYI I think you should always air gap the condensation line, and not directly hook into the drain just so you don’t create a vacuum. But I’m not 100% sure about that but refer to some HVAC videos where the technician finds condensate lines extended too far and they cause backup issues in the condenser

  11. Hilti makes a grease for those things they need it pretty regularly. Especially the metal ones

  12. will that dirt pretty well flatten out on its own since you left it high and put seed/straw down on it?

  13. Sean, I just wanted to second you on the condensate line causing soil saturation. I'm taking advantage of my air conditioning condensate line to grow some peppermint on one side of it and calla lilies on the other because during the summer of course we get just enough to mostly keep them moist and during the winter it gives them the swampy ground at those plants like. The wet spot isn't a problem in my house because I'm on a slab here in the Central Valley of California. However, I didn't want to have standing water and I figured the plants would be the best way to use it up and keep from having mosquito breeding grounds. Most of the year, that spot is moist and only at the hottest part of the summer does the air conditioning/heating condensate line not provide enough water to keep the plants fully happy.

  14. Great idea for the core drill. I can imagine that thing is a bear to push for any amount of time. Take care my friend!
