ok boys it hot here in Louisiana humid and hot today's project is uh this is my
air conditioner condenser and over the years about ten years to be exact this
has sucked up grass and dirt from rain falling off my eaves and splashing mud
and dirt upon it while it's running sucking it into the condenser and grass
clippings and and over the years a ton of leaves have fallen down in here I
don't know if you can see all the leaves but the tools you need to do this our
first and foremost shut off the power that's the most important thing water
electricity is bad I took the top off with a fan of the motor is concerned
it's just a 0 but a half a dozen screws around the outer edge that hold it down
I took the guard that prevents your half blind man that you pay to mow your yard
while you're gone to work from smashing into your condenser too hard doesn't
work so great because he's hit at four or five times at the lawnmower I think
he may be blind anyway I'm not going to complain any most five acres for 150
bucks so I can get a putty knife and unbend the fins my shop vac got a air
hose that i'm going to i got a little 90 degree bent on the end of that and what
i'm going to do is hose out right back in the leaves up i'm going to hose out
from the inside out the fins on the condenser and then i'm going to soap it
down really good that's that's got about Jesus a whole cup of dawn dishwashing
soap in it and I'm going to soak that up really good let it soak for just a
minute or two hit it with a water and then take my air gun and blow it out
and I'm going to do that three or four times and try to get all the old grass
and mud out of there and of course you'll need a trial for this job too the
question is which trial do you need and I'm sure you all know which one I need
it's the one in the middle of the metric
those of you who need to ask why the middle and the trial in the middle
probably don't need to be doing this kind of a job so that trials are the
question and that Charles out of the question obviously it's got to be the
metric troll okay I'm going to get started and i'm going to vacuum this out
clean it up a little bit and about halfway through i'll show it just
another quick clip and when i get it all back together and crank it up all let
you know how much better it runs see ya thing was dirty tunnel leaves all kinds
of mud oh yeah that's nasty it was much worse than I thought much worse actually
had to get a cheater pipe for the trawl but it all worked out now I'm going to
soap it down real good rinse it out three or four times and soap it and
rinse it and just do that over and over until i mought a soap and I put it back
together and it'll be good for another 23 years see it's back together
and it is working noticeably as cooling quicker is what it's doing and going to
use less electricity to get my house cooler and since I'm achieve lazy
bastard I'm all for saving a few bucks on electricity and already my next
project is between the corner of the house in the corner of the shop here I'm
going to be putting a fence from here to here and from the corner of my porch
where that 4 by 4 is over the corner of the shed here this little area here is
going to be where my dog goes out she's a having surgery on her knee today I got
to keep her pinned up in a small area where she can't run because her knees
are just terrible she's only 2 years old and she spends most of her time sitting
on a couch and air conditioning but I like to let her out when she wants to
because she spent so much time in the truck with me that feel guilty not
letting her run in this yard I can't do it anymore because it's just ruined her
knees and these little mini schnauzers they're prone to having the bad knees
anyway so anyway that's my next project and i'll be using a patrol and my screw
gun level and of course i won't be using post all diggers because only wife
beaters use those so i'll see you on my next project
