Is there a good reason not to run my window unit like this?
    #26824141 - 07/14/20 11:17 PM (3 years, 6 months ago)

My kid kept jamming shit in there (thus the breaks in the filter) so here I am

Any suggestions?

Should I just take the face plate off (like in the pic) every time I clean the filter?


It was the only way to get the filter out

Jesus that's it? I plan on studying HVAC when my kid goes to school so I can answer these questions in the future. Has anyone here studied that school of thought? I dont care what it LOOKS like I'm talking about functionality.

Please gentlemen I'm looking for help.

As long as your unite is facing the right way which it looks like your unit is. Since I can read the numbers and assuming uo is up then it should be fine im not sure what you're worried about.

I am way too buzzed to be specific (Bzzzzzzzzzzzzz). But I can tell you that ANY contraption modern man has designed that works on principles similar to your device depends on air flow.  Pre filters catch all the tiny crap in the air that would permanently clog and ruin the efficiancy (spelling?) of your unit. AIR in, AIR out is what you want -and let no airborne particles get in between.

I would just tell you to get a new AC, if it weren't for the fact that I have been in a worst pinch myself. Hope this helps somehow. :rockon:

Ya I'll be poor for the rest of my goddamn miserable life. So I'll put the face plate back on I guess. I guess I'm a year or two from real answers. A nice person told me I could use my certification to legally order giant tanks of nitrus....niiice

If you don’t have the filter on right then it would be no worse than having your windows open without a screen. Probably not a big deal unless there’s a lot of dust or pollen in your area 🤷‍♂️

All I see from you koods is traveling without context. What do you do for a living?

Ps I really enjoyed your protest photos. I think it's really cool when people who usually have to do their art in secret can do graffiti in broad daylight

The face plate probably helps direct the air so the cold incoming air isn’t sucked right back into the vent that goes back outside. An ac unit is just a system where heat is removed from incoming air, and put back into outgoing air.

That big metal prong things sticking out, that is some kind of temperature sensor for a thermostat, you need to figure out what that sticks into and put it back in.

I put the plate back on after cleaning the filter. That's NOT the point koods goddamnit answer the question. Why do you travel so much? It's for sure not for the view. I've never seen you post the country side. Whatever you are up to it's always busy city stuff

There should be a hole somewhere in your radiator that, that temperature sensor prong should fit into, make sure you find that and stick it back in there or where ever it goes, I guarantee that thing shouldn't be out dangling like that.

Fuck. It was dangling when I popped the plate off in the first place. The unit is a hand me down. Damn things keep getting more complicated. Seriously thank you for the advice given.

It probably got snagged on something and pulled out when you popped it off, the hole should be obvious, it should look like an exact fit for it to fit into and just slide it in.

I'm about to pop the plate back off even though I need to wake up early for an arbitrary doc appointment. If you are right I'll give 5 shrooms.

We are both perhaps destrackting from the fact that koods should reveal the TRUTH. Pretending he doesnt post supposedly personal photos from several different US cities like all the time.

That sensor seems to have no place. The default position seems to be right in front of the filter. It's an older model with no digital readout or temp control outside of 1-10 or fan speed though

I mean its possible that its there to sense the temperature of the cold air blowing out but that doesn't make sense to me, any time I have ever seen a sensor like that it was going directly through a metal radiator. Its normally a thermostat controller or a fan controller.

I was going to pop my front cover off on one of my many AC units left behind by people I have rented too but the front cover wouldn't come off it appeared I had to remove the whole exterior cover to access it of which I was not in the mood to do. If you can not get it fixed by this weekend I will disassemble mine and point out exactly what you should be looking for and help you trouble shoot it.

I don’t think that’s a sensor. That’s the tube they use to load the system with coolant and it probably acts as a reservoir to help maintain a proper pressure.

The narrow section in between two wider sections implies its not part of the coolant coil system, if it is he would be able to see it connect directly to the pipes themselves just past our view.

The narrow section in between is a pretty good indicator that it is a sensor though.

I have no idea why all my renters have AC's and then leave them, its fucking a cold climate here its hot like 1 month a year and I just open my window and blow a fan.

We have freak years every 10 years where its blistering hot so I got a shit ton of AC's for when it happens again. lol

Ah! How did I get dragged into this? Keep that F'r (the copper sensor thing OFF the surface of your AC machine), the colder it reads, the faster it will shut down your AC. Let it stick straight out like morning wood if that is what it takes for you to get cool! You really need a new AC but until you can do that- and I totally get your position, give it a shot.

Did you see something that indicates I need a new one? Like I said theres no digital output just a knob for the fan

Then a switch for high/low

And then a switch for on/off

Thanks for everyone's patience.

Ok I took the filter off just to check and theres nothing there to hold it. Do you know which side of the filter it should sit on? It was already at about a 45 degree angle before I did anything

Well everything's working fine now and I dont know what to do with that sensor  or whatever it was so I'm leaving it where it was at about a 45 degree angle closer to the unit with the filter over the top of that of it and then I popped the front plate back over that. Anyways im giving +5 shrooms budman

Just have the sensor sit in front of it with a gape about a half inch or so from it and it should be fine, yours looks rigid so it should stay in place. Mine has little clips that slide in the radiator that hold it.

I knew it was a sensor, I recognize radiator sensors, there use to be one I put in this old 85 mustang radiator, I had a custom build with a custom fan and I stuck the sensor through the radiator but I was a little too aggressive so I had to glue it with some silicone in place lol.

The sensor is missing its still on the car of which I don't have anymore but the silicone is still on the radiator.

I can fix almost anything. I use to not know how to do shit and thought I was incapable but this website believe it or not, learning how to grow fuckloads of shrooms, I learned that I wasn't as stupid and incapable and useless as my religious cult upbringing taught me I was and then I accelerated so fast in life lol. Fuck religion.

I'm sorry your unit is giving you trouble just assembling it. I really do appreciate you. So that sensor sits closer to me or closer to the unit? I'm still a little confused on just that one part. Which side of the filter. Your story is inspiring and makes me hope I'm not as dumb as I am. Like maybe I'm limiting myself because of doubt

It should go on the inner side of the filter closer to the radiator, just don't have it contact the radiator give it some space, its clearly designed to have some space based on where mine sits.

As the other guy mentioned the farther away it is the less sensitive the sensor will be making it blow colder longer etc on lower settings.

Most of us are capable of understand much more than we think. Things are actually a lot simpler than they appear. Like an AC unit, it looks kinda complex at first glance, but really all it is is just compressed gasses which the process of compression heat them, which then get cooled  by a radiator that will be external to your home, and then flow back into your house and then uncompressed, gasses uncompressing cool, like boiling water, evaporation is a cooling process so then the radiator gets cold and air flows through it, its just an air pump comping gases through 2 radiators with a few sensors and simple controls.

But someone who has a basic understanding and how to install some larger systems and drill a few holes in a wall, someone who gets good at installing these in homes makes 40 bucks an hour or so.

Most shit is way simpler than it seems, even a damn car engine is actually pretty simple there are just a lot of parts.

A really simple way to understand gas physics for an AC is to rapidly release air from an air compressor, ice will form around the release valve because its getting that cold.

Or tilt a can of computer duster upside down and spray it on a table. Ice will form on the table.

Well I meant learning to be confident and not having self doubt in our lives but that was still really cool and informative. I saw you had a touch of that in there. Things arent as difficult as we initially percieve them? People really close to me often tell me I'm actually quite smart but I get in my own way mentally

I had to learn myself that I could figure things out.

This day and age, with the internet you can learn anything, literally anything and the more you learn the easier it becomes to learn new shit.

Learning to grow mushrooms was my first realization I could figure shit out. Other than playing video games and skateboarding and getting into trouble, as a kid I had no useful abilities and didn't do that great in school I hated it there.

But once I learned to figure something out on my own, and I was able to figure it out because I was actually interested in it and had the desire to figure it out after that figuring anything else out just became natural.

I can do just about anything now, electrical in my house, re plumb shit in my house, solder pipes together in my house, remodeled one of my bathrooms, other than framing a house I could build an entire house from scratch at this point and I bet I could figure out how to frame too but I have no reason to learn that at this time.

I can wire up an entire 777x airplane now if you just give me the instructions and drawings now. Too bad I am getting shit canned because of a dumb ass virus though.

At first I was stressed when I got my lay off notice, but I know I can figure anything out and I will get through it.

I am considering becoming an HVAC tek, or maybe an electrical apprentice, fuck I might just become a garbage man they make good money, I just need something to tie me over till I can get back to putting airplanes together.

You can do anything you want as long as you really desire it and find your goal or desire or your ways and means of achieving it interesting.

Something that spikes your interest, that's the secret you have to actually find something interesting.

Nothing interested me when I was younger I just thought I was incapable, the whole getting interested in growing mushrooms and all that came with it in my understanding of how it worked and how things worked, fromt he microscopic particles in our air to their life cycle, something actually interested me and I found the whole thing from start to finish fun and exciting.

So I just kept doing stuff career wise that I thought looked fun, exciting or interesting and it just lead me from one thing to another and before you knew it I was getting involved in real estate, building race cars, buying broken shit and fixing it and selling it and just all kinds of shit I just went down a whole rabbit hole of understanding.

It lead me to a whole place in my life I never thought would happen, even traveled to the other side of the Earth and got to pet lions in a 3rd wold country, shit I never though I would ever do I wound up doing.

Thank you so much for typing that it's so inspiring. I know it might not mean much to you but I would give you another +5 shrooms for that if I could.

I have to sleep soon otherwise I would say more but seriously dude this post was a big help to me. You keep being you're awesome self
