Inspecting Home Air Conditioner Leaks

Video Transcript

"Now I always want to take a mirror inspection and look and see how my joints look underneath. And see if I see a place that might be a leak. And a lot of times now I take a damp towel, which I don't have right now with me, and I wipe the joint down. Yeah, I see there's, I got a spot on this one right here. I can see right. I can see a spot right there. Yeah, that's going to leak. So, I didn't get a good silver, I didn't get a good solder joint on the bottom side right there. I've got to check it. The back one's not pretty but it's a good joint. And so saying earlier, the way the pipe was damaged there, you see it's bent in right there. I couldn't make it as neat looking as I like to make it neat. But, I do know I've got a bad spot right here that I've got to reheat that and solder that again there. Yeah I believe I got my joint, my spot that I was worried about. I think I got it took care of now. I'm just double checking to make sure. Yeah I'm cleaning up. And very seldom they can do it like this and hold a mirror and watch what I'm trying to do. Because it makes it really tough. But I believe we're in good shape now. We'll do some different things to check for leaks. But right now these joints look good. They're not the best looking joints I've done, but they look good considering this. Well I'm done with my refrigerant lines right now outside. Let's go inside and see what my man's doing inside to see how he's coming. We do have to come back out and do some electrical out here and some other things. But we'll do them later."
