HVAC has no right being this entertaining and yet here I am. Again.
Alec is the dude who made me willingly watch and enjoy 90 minutes of discussion on Dishwasher detergents.
Or 30 minutes on just the color Brown
Or 60 minutes (across multiple videos) on Christmas LED lights
Suffice it to say, he can make mundane topics pretty interesting to watch
my dishes are coming out clean from my dishwasher thanks to him
unfortunately people in my house keep “rinsing” the dishes before putting it in. I don’t understand
Alec is the kind of person who could make a two-hour video essay about the color brown and make it absolutely fascinating.
Ye he would.
Oh wait, he semi did ( a 20m video instead of 2h )
You mean dark orange?
Orange (terms and conditions may apply)
Turn it up to 100!
A 50min video on Mechanical pinball machines which is indeed fascinating!
I love how thorough he always is with his content and producing followups to answer questions. One of the best YouTubers for this type of content right now.
I want an ac, but getting one installed is so ridiculously expensive.
I had a split ac unit installed about 5 years ago and it cost me like 1300€. What are they charging for it where you live then?
$16,000-20,000 usd for a 2-3 head mini split heat pump
Where? If you look online (in the US at least) they are about $2000
Heat pumps installations are a racket out in the US right now, it’s artificial expense to pad out pockets, there is no practical reason it need be that expensive.
Depends on the system, the living space, and the existing HVAC. The box itself can be well under $2k USD, but things like upgrading your ducting can add a lot to the bill if you have a central air system.
Maybe go for a Window Rattler instead? Easy to install.
Don’t you need those weird windows for that?
Might be a regional thing. Here in Australia our houses often have sliding windows, so it’s not hard to open one and mount an aircon in the space, sealing around thy edges.
I think some other countries use hinged windows which are less amenable to being violated by a Window Rattler. Placing the entire unit inside against the window and creating some improvised ducting for the outdoor air inlet side can also work in a pinch.
I don’t even think they are possible to buy where I live.
I tried looking for one for a similar discussion awhile ago but didn’t find any
