Now, if you flip that switch and that doesn't happen, that's a problem. So William, with the capacitors, why are these so commonly going out? All right, let me rephrase that.
So, uh, I just said that it wasn't designed to go out, but they would do it during voltages and stuff. Yeah, so, uh, did you see him on that camera when he walked around the corner? I saw a shadow, that's why I turned around.
I kind of heard him walking, that's why I You're on air.
What? You've been on air.
It's cool, just have fun.
Condensate pump and filters.
Dirty or clean filters?
Hey, on this episode we talk about why is my filter always clean and do I need a condensate pump? Hey, today on The Comfort Experts, we are talking about capacitors, and my name is Derek Cole, and that's William Skipper. Hey, it's Derek Cole along with William Skipper, and welcome to The Comfort Experts. And today we're talking about something very important for your system. It is the capacitor. But William, the common question is, what is the capacitor and why do I need it?
Well, Derek, what we've got today is, is two of your typical capacitors you'll see in your residential HVAC system. If you got to do it like that right there, —don't do it. Go back to the shop. And look, if, if you block off from here up, you ain't blocking off nothing, right? Because the air stops right there. Right there. Yep. But you can't block off— if you brought this downwards, that it— you got 3 or 4 inches of supply that ain't even in the duct. That makes a difference too. Yeah. And that there, if it's deadheading like that, it is going to cause some static pressure, which— but I know when we disconnected supply It still wasn't doing anything, so. Okay.
