Default HAHA - FIXED IT MYSELF!!!!: Furnace blows but does not heat (intermittent problem)

Bubba posted for all of us...


Blueballs,
Again you are clueless as usual. We have time in here because we know
how to charge enough to have a thriving business and still have lots
of free time. I guess you cant figure that out so you work FOR someone
and dont have any free time.
So how is that burger flippin job going for you Smurf boy?
Bubba

Bubba, he can't flip burgers - he HAS to stay at the "group home"

Default HAHA - FIXED IT MYSELF!!!!: Furnace blows but does not heat (intermittent problem)

Two things happened today.

1. I fixed my mother-in-law's washing machine and faucet.

And

2. I had a licensed contractor come and fix my hvac.

The fixing of the drain hose, and the flushing of sediment on the pipes of
the washing machine and faucet would have cost $100 for a plumber.

The fixing of the smart valve was $463. The thing was, no one would sell me
the parts to do it myself.

Smacks of monopoly and price controlling, if you ask me.

Steve

Congratulations. I, too, fixed my problem myself by replacing my stack
over temp switch, which several of the highly experienced HVAC
professionals here claimed they had never heard of.



No you didnt. You fixed a sympton. I WILL come back to bite you in the
ass.


That would make you ...



.... an ass biter!

Limit problems need to be diagnosed properly as they can have
very expensive and very deadly consequences.

Okay, I'm starting to get it now. Not only are we supposed to call in a

high pricing doesn't really make for a thriving business.

It amazes me how pathetic it is that these so-called professionals
feel so threatened by a couple of homeowners that they waste there
supposedly rare free time ranting and raving like a bunch of
elementary school kids. But then again most of them probably don't
have much more than an elementary school level education...

You guys need to get your stories straight. First you claim you work
exceedingly long hours because of all the work you have, then you claim
you have excess free time because you can get away with overcharging.
Which is it?

My toothpick repair is still working, and I go tomorrow to buy a smart

myself

$300 to $400 in labor.

Which is cheap. In my prime, I charged $850 per hour for my services.

Steve.



Good for you Steve. I think it's always good when a homeowner can do
their own repairs. It saves a lot of grief IMO.

Cheri



I fixed my oven for $62, and the oven guy wanted $350.

Steve


Yeah, I recently replaced the igniter in mine for 30 bucks. I couldn't
even get a repairman to the front door for that.

I pulled my oven out to find the tech guide. I turned on the power to the
oven. I got the error code. I looked it up, and the fix. I did it.

The guy who came over and gave me the huge bid had put on his proposal that
what he was going to fix wasn't even what was wrong with the unit.

We got a check in a couple of weeks for the $80 that he charged us to come
out and misdiagnose the problem.

Hmmm,

wrong, etc., etc. No wonder it's LOOOOONG hours work for nothing. And
trying to compensate by overchargning. Never in my book.

anything else.
It works this way:
When its 55 in the winter or 70 in the summer, most ppl arent using
their equipment that much. Thus. less breakdowns and less customers
thinking about replacing their equipment.


Which was it this past week while you were "playing?"

It gives us time to play.
Then again, there are times when its 95 degrees in the summer and even
hotter out west. Here it doesnt have to be that hot. The humidity will
kill you when its 75 degrees out. It makes for long long hours. It
also makes for much much money.
You have heard of the phrase, "get it while its hot"? "Make hay when
the sun shines"?
Any part of this making sense to you now or does someone need to hit
you with a Fungo bat?

The best fighters I have ever seen in my 58 years didn't talk a lot. Bing,
bang, boom, and it was over. And the losers were still talking. Mostly
mumbling. To themselves.

Since you apparently have nothing better to do with your life than to spend
countless hours in harrassing those engaged within the hvac tirade ( whom
deserve a living wage every bit as much as any other ****ing
joe-sixpac)......

I think you need to learn the difference between cause-and-effect.
I asked a well-intentioned question and was attacked with profanity. I
responded only by questioning their civility, maturity, and professionalism of
these so-called pros.

Then suggest go step in front of the next bus or train that happens to pass
by.

Please re-write in English -- I have no idea what you are saying...

Blueballs,
Again you are clueless as usual. We have time in here because we know
how to charge enough to have a thriving business and still have lots
of free time. I guess you cant figure that out so you work FOR someone
and dont have any free time.
So how is that burger flippin job going for you Smurf boy?

You guys need to get your stories straight. First you claim you work
exceedingly long hours because of all the work you have, then you claim
you have excess free time because you can get away with overcharging.
Which is it?


Hard to believe something so simple has to be explained to you but
then I guess we just forget that the hvac mind is far superior to
anything else.
It works this way:
When its 55 in the winter or 70 in the summer, most ppl arent using
their equipment that much. Thus. less breakdowns and less customers
thinking about replacing their equipment.


Which was it this past week while you were "playing?"

It gives us time to play.
Then again, there are times when its 95 degrees in the summer and even
hotter out west. Here it doesnt have to be that hot. The humidity will
kill you when its 75 degrees out. It makes for long long hours. It
also makes for much much money.
You have heard of the phrase, "get it while its hot"? "Make hay when
the sun shines"?
Any part of this making sense to you now or does someone need to hit
you with a Fungo bat?
Bubba


Blow me.


Another trade school education at work...
Did you stay up all night thinking up that one?

My toothpick repair is still working, and I go tomorrow to buy a smart
valve, which I shall replace according to his instructions, saving myself
$300 to $400 in labor.

Which is cheap. In my prime, I charged $850 per hour for my services.

Steve.


I laugh every time one of the "pros" here complains about DIY'ers
being cheap. I do it for the satisfaction and the challenge of
learning a new skill and doing something myself.

From a money perspective, every DIY job is a losing proposition from
an opportunity cost perspective since I can bill out my own work at
10-20 times what even the best "pro" charges. I'm not saying this to
brag, but just to explain that not everything is about the money. In
fact, last year, I would take off 1-2 days a week just to work on my
house since I frankly enjoyed having a chance to work with my hands.

Two things happened today.

1. I fixed my mother-in-law's washing machine and faucet.

And

2. I had a licensed contractor come and fix my hvac.

The fixing of the drain hose, and the flushing of sediment on the pipes of
the washing machine and faucet would have cost $100 for a plumber.

The fixing of the smart valve was $463. The thing was, no one would sell me
the parts to do it myself.

Smacks of monopoly and price controlling, if you ask me.

Steve


That's a shame. Did companies literally refuse to sell to you or did
you just have trouble finding the part?

In my (limited) experience, I have never had a problem getting supply
houses to sell to me. I try to be respectful of their business model
and come well-prepared and ready to order but beyond that I have found
everybody helpful and eager to sell to anybody with the cash.

Since you apparently have nothing better to do with your life than to spend
countless hours in harrassing those engaged within the hvac tirade ( whom
deserve a living wage every bit as much as any other ****ing
joe-sixpac)......

I think you need to learn the difference between cause-and-effect.
I asked a well-intentioned question and was attacked with profanity. I
responded only by questioning their civility, maturity, and professionalism of
these so-called pros.

Then suggest go step in front of the next bus or train that happens to pass
by.

The best fighters I have ever seen in my 58 years didn't talk a lot. Bing,
bang, boom, and it was over. And the losers were still talking. Mostly
mumbling. To themselves.

Steve


Agreed, I knew one particularly successful street fighter, he confided
that when someone started talking $hit, he simply threw his first
punch. Anything else evolves into a WWF type shouting match. He was
convinced that you aren't going to fight without getting hurt, but the
first punch destabilizes the opponent and more often than not leads to
the victory.

There's more to the story. I called and asked how much the part sold for.
The tekkie said they didn't sell to the general public, but to only those
with accounts. I asked what it took to get an account. He said a tax
resale number and a business license. I said I had both. He then said to
bring them over, set up an account, and then he would sell it to me. So I
went from ignorant member of the general public to acceptable workman with
proper licensing with a few words on the telephone.



In my (limited) experience, I have never had a problem getting supply
houses to sell to me. I try to be respectful of their business model
and come well-prepared and ready to order but beyond that I have found

Not so everywhere.

I ended up calling a friend, and having someone he knew to do the job, since
it WAS something that dealt with natural gas, and was potentially hazardous.

I'm guessing you'd be jealous even if it _were_ only a double wide
(which I doubt, judging by what he's said).



So you believe everything you see typed? Hey, by the way. I have a
beautiful bridge in California I can sell you real cheap. Really! Im
not kidding. Believe me!

No, but one can often evaluate credibility without seeing the witness.
Perhaps it's not infallible, but it's not awful, either.

Speaking of gas, the "professional" who installed our gas range had
to do it three times before he got it right. I think there are a lot

Let me guess...you got your phone book and called around for the
cheapest quote....serves you right....you'll respond and deny this, of
course, but we've seen it all before...

Okay, I'm starting to get it now. Not only are we supposed to call in a
highly experienced HVAC professional, we're supposed to shop around for the
highest bidder.

No wonder the "pros" here have so much time on their hands -- they
fail to understand that the combination of incompetence, rudeness, and
high pricing doesn't really make for a thriving business.

It amazes me how pathetic it is that these so-called professionals
feel so threatened by a couple of homeowners that they waste there
supposedly rare free time ranting and raving like a bunch of
elementary school kids. But then again most of them probably don't
have much more than an elementary school level education...

Blueballs,
Again you are clueless as usual. We have time in here because we know
how to charge enough to have a thriving business and still have lots
of free time. I guess you cant figure that out so you work FOR someone
and dont have any free time.
So how is that burger flippin job going for you Smurf boy?
Bubba

LMAO -- believe me, you really do not want to start comparing incomes,
wealth, job status, education, etc.
