Basement Dehumidifiers * Your friendly HVAC Tip *

[awsomeears]

Did you know 9 out of 10 homes have Dehumidifiers, and on those unit there is a thing called an " Air Filter " :wooo

How about this go down stairs and clean it you will be amazed :rolf

Doing my normal A/C tune-ups at the customers house I alway spend a min or two finding the Dehumidifier in there boxed filled basement( just because I honestly care ) to make sure the filter is clean :thumbsup

I have not found a clean one yet * I'm not shitting you * Thursdays customer Dave had one that was plugged solid. I said " hey Dave you should clean this " :rolf

He looked at me and said " Holly shit is thats why that dam thing has not been working "

Me - Yep !!!
Dave - I owe you bud
Me - No its cool :banana1:

I must say it is rather refreshing to see someone as excited and proud of their job to go above and beyond on a daily basis. Props to you sir.

I need to get into HVAC, sounds like lots of fun. Where do I sign up?

^^^ Brad (my brother/only sibling) is the same way as I am with the automotive service/sales world, it's just I have a hard time working for someone and he doesn't :goof . However, that's partly because there are soo many 'snakes' in the automotive industry and I'm about as honest of a person as you'll find.....:thumbsup

Brad is THE man when it comes to HVAC stuff, if I had the $$$ to start up a HVAC business Brad would be in charge of it hands down.....:headbang

And when they FREEZE up !!!!!!!!!!! its 90% do to a Dirty Air Filter. Ohh yea some from what I Have found don't have one, but we are talking old school.

Not that Old School is bad it just lacks features.

I had no idea they had air filters. I'll be sure to mention it to my parents next time I talk to them. I know the two they have (one really old one and a new one) have been running in the basement since we first started getting all that rain.

And I checked my furnace filter the other day too. All looked good! (:

thanks for the tip. I didn't know they had filters. Mine was pretty much plugged up.

Filters are for wussies. Take that shit out and throw it in the trash....then you don't have to clean it.

Mine too ! Mine used to fill up the holding tank in 3 days but, since I cleaned that totally clogged up filter it had it fills in a little over 1 day ! I just added a drain hose to it today as now it fills so up so fast I did not want to mess with having to empty it everyday...Thanks for the tip !

wow I need to really do this because everytime I go in the basement they are full. I mean they fill up most times in 1 day but sometimes I need to empty them twice a day. Damn Basements.
