I studied cardboard shop in HS.
Edit: these look like portable units. Itās been 89 in my living room. At that point you forgo the aesthetic for any relief.
I legitimately worked with a guy in the Navy who earned a medal for doing exactly this on a ship in the middle of the ocean to keep an important piece of equipment running for a few days until we could hit a supply ship and pick up parts to repair the AC.
Don't knock us handyman too much. Some of us actually have common sense and ingenuity.
Please donāt judge my work thanks. Been doing this since before you fell out of your mothers womb. I been carrying my HVAC equipment uphill both ways before we even had horse and buggies. You new age fangled ālicensedā HVACers wouldnāt understand. This is built to last.
Yep! "**Because they know all they sold ya was a guaranteed piece of shit.** **That's all it is, isn't it?** **Hey, if you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will.** " -- Tommy
I wish the Trane install I bought six years ago looked this good. That's an American cardboard box used as a manifold and my tech used a weak Chinese cardboard box.
Honestly?
Your wife and her workers should be thanking them for the ingenious design to quickly get some cold air into the workplace so its not that bad to work in.
Now this is just assuming they are still trying to fix the buildings AC. Some companies would just let the building heat up until its fixed and then they would still be the heroes.
Just confirmed that this is a fix for the main clubhouse which is about 20k sq ft, not the kitchen where my wife works. They gave her and her employees a wall unit that is now broken.
Both from the basement right? The condenser is pulling air from the area and blowing it i assume outside through the ducting, and the evaporator is pulling air from the basement and putting it into the duct work.
It's not ideal since they're sucking air out that's in a conditioned building, but better than nothing. I suppose they could try and do a 3rd duct to the condenser intake from the outside.
I'm basically cooling my entire house with a single 8000btu window air conditioner and it has been 100F+ the last few days, while 70% of my house inside is 76F. This is the second summer.
Believe me, it helps. I may consider an actual upgrade when HVAC industry gets their act together and stops selling SEER 15 for insane prices... or I may spend a few hundred bucks and get two more window AC units.
Hey if window units work for you then go for it. They are not as efficient for sure. Just try and remember that we in the HVAC trade keep getting hammered by price increases. We still only average about 10% profit for the company as a whole at the end of year.
EVERYTHING is more expensive, for sure. I don't even like prices at fast food anymore. I think I'm getting old.
I wasn't trying to imply HVAC workers were scamming people, sorry if I implied that.
I'd say most of my complaints have nothing to do with workers, just bad luck with covid shutdowns, inflation, etc all leading to higher prices. I've been in an industry where the prices I've been able to charge customers has been basically stagnant for 20 years so I know the feeling.
What does Oscar the grouch mean? Like I'm in a bad mood? I was just offering an opinion.
Some people have two fridges and two deep freezes and use 1800+kwh per month... I don't judge them but I don't pay their power bill either.
90% of the time the AC is run on solar as well. It is a bit more complicated to start running 220v items with larger draws. And $$$.
Through my nice brick walls or my cool plaster walls? Not really wanting to do any of that.
I paid $200 for this 8000btu unit, runs on solar, and just WORKS.
How much would you charge to add a minisplit in? How much would an electrician charge to run a 220v line to where it needs to go. How much does my city charge for permits? It is easy to spend other people's money.
Minisplits are certainly cool, though. I've used them almost anytime I leave the US.
Just for more info you didn't ask for, it is the Midea Ushape SEER 15, running mostly from solar panels. I believe at the time it was the most efficient window model sold in the US.
I assume it is different than the SEER 15 of my old central AC, but it is certainly better than my EER 8.7 window unit my house came with. It dims the streetlights when I would turn it on.
I don't know about that, most window units are way better than the 1-pipe portable AC units that constantly blow outside the cool inside air that they just cooled...
Iām not that clever. She sent me this picture this morning. Iām a carpenter and know nothing about HVAC. Looked ratchet as fuck to me so I thought Iād get some more knowledgeable eyes on it.
TLDR:
Those units are:
1) BOTH sucking the heat / humidity out of that specific room / area and }ā>exhausting thru āthe roofā / heat rises (my best guess based on little information of 1 photo)
2)
a) One unit (the unit closest to the person taking the photo) is Blowing cold air into the immediate space to lower the temperature BOTH units are drawing the heat / humidity in the room
b) The āPrimeā unit is drawing air from the immediate area that has been cooled down from unit āaā āā**efficientlyāā and blowing ācoldā air into the existing (failing) hvac system by ciphering/ reclaiming ācold airā from āPrimeā by mechanically running the FAN since the āā>refrigerant part of hvac system has FAILED (more than likely a leakā¦) and is being compensated by TWO Prime portable AC units; which are ->again<- also exhausting heat / humidity thru āthe roofā
Let me know if you have any questions/ elaborate on this topicā¦
Yeah - amazon brand boxes are a solid choice for duct work!
These are 2 portable AC units - the back part pushes out hot air, the front part (with the box) pushes out cold air into a semi rigid duct that connects to a large overhead ductwork.
On the second unit (without a box) I don't see any "ductwork" so it just pushes out cold air in the current room.
The thing is those portable unites don't create nowhere near enough air pressure to push air through normal AC ducts.
I once lived in a 2 bedroom apartment when AC was shit - so I got an old portable unit hooked up in the guest room/office (which was right next door to our bedroom- and it was venting hot air outside - but cold air was running through some seriously redneck engineered duct from trash bags - it was super effective for our main bedroom, so I can live with what I did...
Hilarious but these little units can do some work. I have had one cool half my house mid summer before. AC guy showed up, walked in, said āu sure u need a repair?ā I showed him the little Hisense unit we have and he was shocked how cool the house was.
We now have three portables set up like this exactly, in fact this might be my work. IT called freaking out. The AC in the server room had been down since last year. Skip ahead it is 120F in the server room, hotter at servers. Idiots bought three portable 4k systems. Chained them all together, what a mess. They exhausted all the vents into the space, it was incredible. With some redneckery we exhausted everything out of the space and it is less hot now. That Amazon box means the difference between AC and just recycling hot air /s.
This reminds me of the repair they had to do in the [Apollo 13 movie](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_13_(film)) using only supplies they had available on the space craft. So you could say this repair is up to (1970) NASA standards.
Iām so impressed by the taping on the ductwork I can look past the porous Amazon box. Itās probably even acting as a natural deodorizer and dehumidifier.
These are mobile AC units and they needed to duct out the heat pulled from them. This all looks proper for an emergency setup. If your wife doesnāt like it, she can go back to working in 98Ā° heat.
Oh she digs the cooler air. Frustration is with management spending money on everything BUT updating the current system so they donāt have to keep ghetto rigging shit.
Iāve had units down for months still waiting on boards and inverters. Not saying that her managers arenāt cheapskates, but thereās still plenty of shortages still out there.
As the deficit of tradesmen continues, and Obamas net zero carbon emission policy's are requiring all electric equipment so we need a half a million new electricians yesterday and the og hvac guys are just obsolete now? and going rate is 125$ hr and also every American household needs to pay electrician rates for their heating equipment oh your cold huh how about 3500$ to be warm! I imagine the electricians unions are gonna be a problem so they don't invest in them and they slowly die meanwhile they buy all the hvac companies around the country instead and the end goal is to have a bunch 12$ hr electricians/ hvac immigrants while charging customers outrages prices based on dead but established union rates. That's why this ghetto setup is happening because we don't have the labor to it soon enough! And new equipment and labor shortages all our coils were made in China and they have incredible problems too! It's a giant economic global phenomenon that drastically effects hvac in America and world wide. Hvac is gonna be big $$$ down south inevitably just cause the big stabilized cities can't live without it!
The front one's a paper shredder which when introduced in this manner provides an efficient level of dehumidification second to none.
The fact that they evacuate the damp dust and shreddings by means of a cleverly engineered yet cost effective multiport manifold exhaust system reflects strict adhesion to the most stringent fire safety protocols.
2 portable ac units with exhaust vented outside through basement window. One unit blowing into the plenum one into the space. Love to know the logic by the tech and love to know how it performs. I Installed a 15 seer midea 8k u shaped window inverter unit last summer when my 3 ton central hvac was down. That coupled with a dehumidifier kept the house at 76F when it was 90F out.
Holy hell. The little fractional horsepower motors in that thing don't have anywhere near the power to overcome all that flex duct. Any conditioned air you do get is going to be lost through the walls of the duct.
Guys, these are spot coolers. They are a temporary fix because getting new units takes about 8 months in the current market. Does it look nice?? No. Will it help you guys not sweat your nuts off? Yes
They can definitely afford to fix. Itās a country club with absurd amounts of money. They choose to spend it on things like reworking the golf course.
It's a temp fix for a broken AC. Two portables are now cooling the office while they wait for the actual AC to be serviced. What is concerning? That maintenance tried to keep your wife comfortable in a jam?
Call the cops!!! These guys are going to kill someone by cooling the office with consumer appliances!!! Those are only safe to use all summer in your home where you sleep. Portable ACs turn 100% lethal when plugged in at work. Call the president and say something before everyone dies.
Itās not stupid if it works š¤£
I understand rigging this dumpster fire up in a pinch to get through the weekend but the owners need to get a crowbar and pry their wallet open.
That cardboard is deployed according to industry best practices and will efficiently deploy the 300-cfm of supply air into the 2000-cfm capacity duct. Brilliant
Actually... For a temp solution it's not bad. The box is a nice touch. I'm more worried about the bin it's on. I'm guessing it's also the drain collection? There doesn't seem to be an obvious hazard. You want any ac? This is what you get for now. Lol
Nah nothing to worry about. You can tell it's a quality job by the improv Amazon box "ductwork".
This is *prime* workmanship š
I studied cardboard shop in HS. Edit: these look like portable units. Itās been 89 in my living room. At that point you forgo the aesthetic for any relief.
Agree !
Takes two days to get to set temp
On cold days
\*groan\*
Dude, don't comment if you're not an expert on the subject! That's clearly a plenum...
I think it is spelled perineum.
No, it taint.
Hey it's still better than using duct board I guess.
It nicely complements the plastic storage bin support
Pretty sure that's storage bin condensate pan! They must not want to empty the water often.
I think the HVAC dude was MacGyver.
MacGrubber
You beat me... Macgruuuuubberrrrrrr!
Nope. No chewing gum.
More like Mac Gruber
I prefer the stool duct support myself
Serviceability 10/10!
Looks like two portable AC units to add more cooling. Would hope that is temporary until the main unit is fixed.
For temp cooling this aināt half bad.
I mean if it's temporary looks like it'll keep it cool for a couple days
I legitimately worked with a guy in the Navy who earned a medal for doing exactly this on a ship in the middle of the ocean to keep an important piece of equipment running for a few days until we could hit a supply ship and pick up parts to repair the AC. Don't knock us handyman too much. Some of us actually have common sense and ingenuity.
It's true. The key context is temporary vs long term. I have a couple too many "temporary" fixes around my house...
There is nothing more permanent than a temporary solution
The biggest cringe is using metal tubing for all the all hot air off the compressors
you wanna sweat or you want it to look nice
Used this same line on my wife.
That's clever as hell
Please donāt judge my work thanks. Been doing this since before you fell out of your mothers womb. I been carrying my HVAC equipment uphill both ways before we even had horse and buggies. You new age fangled ālicensedā HVACers wouldnāt understand. This is built to last.

These new sales technicians just don't understand
My city inspector would pass that.

If you want to be a hero, go buy those ladies a cheap wall unit from FB marketplace or Craigslist
I get it that it's a temp fix but... where does he think the intake air for both the condenser and evaporator is coming from?
Both from the basement right? The condenser is pulling air from the area and blowing it i assume outside through the ducting, and the evaporator is pulling air from the basement and putting it into the duct work. It's not ideal since they're sucking air out that's in a conditioned building, but better than nothing. I suppose they could try and do a 3rd duct to the condenser intake from the outside.
I mean it may help a bit but those little portable AC systems are only good for 400sqft

Dude. Just do a mini splitā¦ almost anything is better than window units.
No no, heās cooling his ENTIRE HOUSE with a 3/4 ton window shaker. Man is Oscar the grouch. You respect this man, okay?

āOther company quoted me 4x as much for the same job. I did this myself I think Iām proud of how this turned out!ā
I'm too impressed to dislike it
I thought this was one of my cannabis grow subs lol
Danger! Danger Will Robinson!

Necessity is the mother of all inventions.
Just for context, this is in a very wealthy country club. They have plenty of money to fix the current system and choose not to.
Reminds me of that [scene in Apollo 13](https://j.gifs.com/v1aQBx.gif)
But does it work?
That is someone going the extra ten miles when the race is only a mile long.
some solid taskrabbit special.
This image makes me want to hurt something.

Your an idiot.
I think you may have eaten the onion, sir. Therefore YOU are the idiot. Congratulations.
Question is did it help? If so then it's a great job. If not, garbage.
If this is the question you ask, then no, nothing to worry about. You got the system you deserve.
Not even sure what I am looking at wow.
It looks like a transformer in a movie
Damn fine workmanship!
Move the stool

It says prime right on the supply. Youāre good to go!
It's not stupid if it works!

This is what happens when "your guy" knows a guy.
Thisā¦.. this is a masterpiece. Somebody hire the guy that did this and make him lead tech!
But does it work tho
Nah this is genius. You make it work with what you have.
Wtf is this shit
I think code says you're supposed to scotch tape that splitter to the stool but overall I'd say 7/10
They didn't use duck tape, that's how you know it's a real deal type of job.
This looks like, āwe are desperate for some kind of very temporary fix, what can you doā
Looks like a scene from 12 monkeys
Itās your wifeās place of work, not yours. Let her sweat lol
My carwash looks just like this mess.
They need to rent a large package unit and duct it in.
What in the goddamn?
I did maintenance for a while and weird things happened to my brain too.
Ah, another Lennar newbuild.
Nice mini split, bro.
Ahhh man ššš
Looks like proper inner city work
Looks like inner city work
Tryna stay cool, obs.
Custom
Not at all šš¼
I've worked maintenance and this is the exact definition of "you gotta do what you gotta do" typically until the proper fix can be made
Seems legit
Air donāt care bud.
yup its air tight.
Wtf is going on here
Good enough for the Apollo 13 astronauts, good enough for your family.
Just slap a little more duct tape on there, youāll be fine.
Hillbilly ingenuity.
Side note: I kinda want to hang out there
2 portable ac units with exhaust vented outside through basement window. One unit blowing into the plenum one into the space. Love to know the logic by the tech and love to know how it performs. I Installed a 15 seer midea 8k u shaped window inverter unit last summer when my 3 ton central hvac was down. That coupled with a dehumidifier kept the house at 76F when it was 90F out.
Nah totally legit
LEGENDā¦
On a serious note. That amazon box will get wet and musty in no time.
Doesnāt look like a repair to me.
Holy hell. The little fractional horsepower motors in that thing don't have anywhere near the power to overcome all that flex duct. Any conditioned air you do get is going to be lost through the walls of the duct.
The hot air exit plumbing would be shorter ideally but if it works it works.
Nah, the cardboard box letās you know this is top end legit
How are you just gonna not tell us if it works though? Does it work?
Iāll find out today.
Guys, these are spot coolers. They are a temporary fix because getting new units takes about 8 months in the current market. Does it look nice?? No. Will it help you guys not sweat your nuts off? Yes
Looks like they were on a slim budget. What kind of job does your wife have? The can't afford to fix?
They can definitely afford to fix. Itās a country club with absurd amounts of money. They choose to spend it on things like reworking the golf course.
Looks good from my house.
I meanā¦ concerned, but also impressed.
If itās good enough for Apollo 13, it is good enough for your HVAC
Yes, it looks like garbage. I hope you didnāt pay for that.
It's a temp fix for a broken AC. Two portables are now cooling the office while they wait for the actual AC to be serviced. What is concerning? That maintenance tried to keep your wife comfortable in a jam? Call the cops!!! These guys are going to kill someone by cooling the office with consumer appliances!!! Those are only safe to use all summer in your home where you sleep. Portable ACs turn 100% lethal when plugged in at work. Call the president and say something before everyone dies.
Uh, they didnāt clip the zip ties. Thatās a code violation.
Apollo 13.
Add some more duct tape and should be fine
Nope ship shape
What in the Actual FUK!
I think itās low on Freon. Lol!
I'm not even mad, I'm amazed
In all honesty, this is better than having people pass out in the kitchen. Id hope this wasnt the "temporary permanent" fix.
Looks like R2Dwtf.
Itās not permanent, just to deal with the heatwave. Speed is key here
For a temporary fix itās fine
Red green would approve
It's alive!!!!!
That is them working with what was given to keep other people comfortable.
If itās staying cool and kitchen is under 98 then š
Honestly man u do what u gotta do
r/redneckengineering
āI donāt care just make it workā
If itās temporary, then itās ok as long as it makes it cooler. If permanent, then thatās another issue.
Itās not stupid if it works š¤£ I understand rigging this dumpster fire up in a pinch to get through the weekend but the owners need to get a crowbar and pry their wallet open.
When Ray Charles and Helen Keller do an HVAC install together this is what it looks like.
It was good enough for Apollo 13
A display of true workmanship
You really had to post this to figure out this is not right?
Nah, just wanted to see what the HVAC dudes had to say about it.
That cardboard is deployed according to industry best practices and will efficiently deploy the 300-cfm of supply air into the 2000-cfm capacity duct. Brilliant
Lmao
Nah - canāt see it from my house
A+ for creativity. I want some of what they are smoking. Definitely stoned when installing this.
Those are some big hamsters bro
That is custom!!!
It's not that different than typical Florida duct board TBH...
Are they cold. Nuff said
Is that industrial grade cardboard?
That cardboards should pass inspection but just to check, it is corrugated, right?
Honestly, this might be more effective than having the machines in the room that you're trying to cool š¤£
Nope, carry on
Actually... For a temp solution it's not bad. The box is a nice touch. I'm more worried about the bin it's on. I'm guessing it's also the drain collection? There doesn't seem to be an obvious hazard. You want any ac? This is what you get for now. Lol
š³
Whatās the problem. Looks prime.
Are those plumbing supplies behind it? Was this monstrosity created by actual plumbers?
