00:00:10.440 so what on it was replaced again the 00:00:12.90000:00:12.910 pressure relief valve and the pressure 00:00:14.94000:00:14.950 release valve and the gauge that thing 00:00:18.54000:00:18.550 yeah 00:00:19.17000:00:19.180 this year last year these were replaced 00:00:21.80000:00:21.810 upstairs downstairs and then downstairs 00:00:24.03000:00:24.040 upstairs and it was installed so it was 00:00:26.99900:00:27.009 it installed correctly when the house 00:00:28.17000:00:28.180 was brand new so long no or that's what 00:00:32.24900:00:32.259 I said it was installed in Karachi yeah 00:00:33.42000:00:33.430 so it was that way from the time it was 00:00:35.06900:00:35.079 new yep and it worked fine it was just 00:00:37.13900:00:37.149 inefficient yeah 00:00:38.69000:00:38.700 expansion tanks new gonna get a video of 00:00:41.43000:00:41.440 this thing firing up momentarily this is 00:00:46.29000:00:46.300 the 1969 American Standard gas boiler at 00:00:50.88000:00:50.890 my friend's house one of my last 00:00:53.81900:00:53.829 opportunities to get a video of this 00:00:55.88900:00:55.899 boiler because the house has been sold 00:00:58.20000:00:58.210 they're moving out next month so yeah 00:01:02.81900:01:02.829 pretty much last chance to get a video 00:01:05.40000:01:05.410 of it running in heat mode because it's 00:01:07.83000:01:07.840 probably gonna be too warm the next time 00:01:09.14900:01:09.159 I come here 00:01:19.64000:01:19.650 I am hauling a dresser for a friend of 00:01:23.87000:01:23.880 mine I think this might be the biggest 00:01:27.26000:01:27.270 thing I've ever hauled with this truck 00:01:38.20000:01:38.210 and it's not going to be running exactly 00:01:44.80000:01:44.810 it's not warming up to ten on the 00:01:46.82000:01:46.830 central air but here's one last video of 00:01:49.97000:01:49.980 the central air 2008 carrier straight 00:02:00.62000:02:00.630 cool unit copeland scroll compressor 00:02:29.10000:02:29.110 swimming pool and then there's a Trane 00:02:33.64000:02:33.650 heat pump at the house next door I think 00:02:36.76000:02:36.770 it's a heat pump it's now lit up on legs 00:02:38.41000:02:38.420 but it might just be sharp window unit 00:02:55.42000:02:55.430 for the first floor they were going to 00:02:59.44000:02:59.450 install a couple street cooled ductless 00:03:02.74000:03:02.750 mini-split on the first floor but 00:03:04.42000:03:04.430 someone wound up buying the house and 00:03:06.00900:03:06.019 they didn't need to do that so again it 00:03:11.77000:03:11.780 just has central air on the second floor 00:03:14.55000:03:14.560 it is beautiful today 00:03:27.76000:03:27.770 and again I'm pretty sure this a two and 00:03:30.47000:03:30.480 a half ton don't know for sure though 00:03:49.77000:03:49.780 hello there there there you always do 00:04:20.53000:04:20.540 something YouTube worthy there how old's 00:04:31.45000:04:31.460 your like 395 m 00:04:48.16000:04:48.170 he weighs 125 pounds mommy 00:04:53.35000:04:53.360 40 you don't wait 140 he weighs a 00:05:08.09000:05:08.100 hundred and forty I thought it was 125 00:05:17.16000:05:17.170 here is the thermostat for the heating 00:05:20.41000:05:20.420 system in my friend's house it is a heat 00:05:24.37000:05:24.380 and cool thermostat but it is only wired 00:05:28.63000:05:28.640 to the boiler the air-conditioner has 00:05:30.37000:05:30.380 its own separate thermostat so this is 00:05:34.09000:05:34.100 basically a straight cool unit and heat 00:05:37.69000:05:37.700 combination thermostat so oil heat or 00:05:43.45000:05:43.460 gas heat or even electric heat matched 00:05:45.70000:05:45.710 up with a street cool air conditioner if 00:05:47.44000:05:47.450 we're a heat pump and have e/m heat on 00:05:52.39000:05:52.400 it or ox seat or both 00:05:59.04000:05:59.050 alright see that is the thermostat let's 00:06:04.33000:06:04.340 see if we can make it I know it's funny 00:06:11.35000:06:11.360 it says change filter but a hot water 00:06:14.68000:06:14.690 boiler system doesn't require a filter 00:06:18.93000:06:18.940 it says that it says you need your 00:06:23.83000:06:23.840 filter change but hot water hydronic 00:06:25.99000:06:26.000 heating systems don't need a filter 00:06:29.52000:06:29.530 because it's a thermostat that's set up 00:06:32.20000:06:32.210 for a forced air system and the stay 00:06:39.94000:06:39.950 light savings daylight savings time has 00:06:42.01000:06:42.020 just begun and it's about now or behind 00:06:47.67000:06:47.680 alright I will film the heat pump or the 00:06:53.68000:06:53.690 heat but the boiler momentarily got a 00:06:56.80000:06:56.810 lot of other stuff to do I'll be back 00:07:05.21000:07:05.220 bear really wants to go for a ride in 00:07:07.74000:07:07.750 the truck there would take up the whole 00:07:21.00000:07:21.010 bed of the truck it's like that old 00:07:31.11000:07:31.120 Nissan Frontier commercial from like 00:07:33.35000:07:33.360 bags love trucks except it to Tacoma 00:07:38.25000:07:38.260 instead of a Aneesa 00:07:53.18000:07:53.190 it's funny because I wanted to get a 00:07:55.40900:07:55.419 video of the boiler today because it was 00:07:57.75000:07:57.760 rather chilly this morning and then it 00:08:00.93000:08:00.940 really really warmed up it's like homes 00:08:02.49000:08:02.500 warm enough to have the air conditioning 00:08:05.34000:08:05.350 on see if we can get this to fire up 00:08:09.30000:08:09.310 because the next time I probably get it 00:08:10.92000:08:10.930 I'm probably going to be able to come 00:08:12.12000:08:12.130 come to this house it's gonna be to haul 00:08:16.77000:08:16.780 my friends a band equipment and I'm 00:08:19.59000:08:19.600 gonna have to come here really early and 00:08:21.08000:08:21.090 move fast and get out fast 00:08:23.67000:08:23.680 bear bear come here there's no way this 00:08:32.10000:08:32.110 thing could be on 00:08:51.05000:08:51.060 I can't tell it's making noise but it's 00:08:54.80000:08:54.810 not that noisy it's warming up so does 00:09:02.84000:09:02.850 it make a lot of noise when trimming I 00:09:07.15000:09:07.160 think it just has to kick in because 00:09:09.47000:09:09.480 it's you know not that hot athelets up 00:09:12.44000:09:12.450 like that has nothing to do with it 00:09:29.42000:09:29.430 yeah there it is 00:09:34.20000:09:34.210 wish I could see the actual burner 00:09:36.03000:09:36.040 inside 00:09:44.66000:09:44.670 so there are the burners in the boiler 00:09:47.22000:09:47.230 and I don't know what the efficiency of 00:09:51.09000:09:51.100 this thing is probably since it's from 00:09:53.43000:09:53.440 like 1969 about I don't know 60 or 70% 00:10:06.15000:10:06.160 it is like almost 60 degrees outside and 00:10:08.90000:10:08.910 running the heat for a video 00:10:17.23000:10:17.240 I'm like leaning sideways on the floor 00:10:40.05000:10:40.060 my friend is gonna turn it off and then 00:10:42.11900:10:42.129 I turn it back on so we can see the 00:10:44.49000:10:44.500 flames at night and this might be direct 00:10:49.94900:10:49.959 spark or I don't know 00:10:55.10000:10:55.110 I don't know if this is direct spark or 00:10:56.99000:10:57.000 hot surface ignition 00:11:05.45000:11:05.460 so yeah basically the way this works is 00:11:08.95000:11:08.960 the boiler heats up the water then 00:11:11.75000:11:11.760 there's a bunch of baseboard heaters 00:11:13.82000:11:13.830 with copper piping in a minute keeps in 00:11:16.04000:11:16.050 the hot water gets piped through the 00:11:18.07000:11:18.080 copper pipes and that's what warms the 00:11:20.45000:11:20.460 house it's much better for stair eight 00:11:22.31000:11:22.320 in my opinion 00:11:28.39000:11:28.400 and I don't want to turn off the camera 00:11:30.22000:11:30.230 because I know when soon as I do that 00:11:32.82900:11:32.839 I'm gonna miss it shutting off oh there 00:11:35.74000:11:35.750 we go 00:11:36.04000:11:36.050 I think they're just like glowed really 00:11:38.86000:11:38.870 bright orange 00:11:50.91000:11:50.920 didn't shut off 00:11:53.42000:11:53.430 okay 00:11:57.34000:11:57.350 salt 00:11:59.36000:11:59.370 and now the flames like alternating 00:12:01.19000:12:01.200 between glowing like really brought 00:12:02.54000:12:02.550 bright orange going back to blue 00:12:07.65000:12:07.660 there hey bear no don't come here here 00:12:12.24000:12:12.250 don't burn yourself there it goes 00:12:14.16000:12:14.170 all right it's off 00:12:28.15000:12:28.160 now we just got to wait for it to turn 00:12:29.68000:12:29.690 back Don 00:12:33.25000:12:33.260 so yeah these are the guts of a 43 00:12:38.77000:12:38.780 year-old high gas hydronic boiler 00:12:45.95000:12:45.960 gph hydronic gas heating American 00:12:50.70000:12:50.710 Standard plumbing and heating division 00:13:06.03000:13:06.040 I have so many videos top-load 00:13:18.12000:13:18.130 you 00:13:28.37000:13:28.380 okay this is like take three trying to 00:13:31.05000:13:31.060 get the boiler to turn on and when 00:13:35.79000:13:35.800 there's like the sound of water going 00:13:37.14000:13:37.150 through it that's what it did when we 00:13:39.51000:13:39.520 turn it on the first time 00:13:43.23000:13:43.240 so I think it's about ready to kick on 00:13:56.77000:13:56.780 there we go 00:14:08.58000:14:08.590 so yeah that is the boiler 1969 American 00:14:12.72000:14:12.730 Standard 00:14:16.18000:14:16.190 gph hydronic gas heating and there's all 00:14:21.07900:14:21.089 the guts 00:14:26.34000:14:26.350 blue pipe 00:14:29.50000:14:29.510 whirlpool gas hot water gas water heater 00:14:32.32000:14:32.330 I don't know why I keep calling a hot 00:14:35.11000:14:35.120 water heater just a water eater 00:14:41.05000:14:41.060 all right I think we are going to kill 00:14:43.42000:14:43.430 it 00:14:58.28000:14:58.290 alright time to shut off 00:15:31.36000:15:31.370 1969 American Standard gph hydronic gas 00:15:36.20000:15:36.210 heater aka the Sherman tank as my HVAC 00:15:43.40000:15:43.410 instructor referred to it when I told 00:15:46.28000:15:46.290 him about it and it just shut off 00:15:49.61000:15:49.620 alright let's go get a video of the 00:15:51.17000:15:51.180 central air running the last hurrah of 00:15:53.69000:15:53.700 this house 00:15:59.22000:15:59.230 my friend's mother does not want me to 00:16:02.32000:16:02.330 turn the central air on because she's 00:16:05.17000:16:05.180 kind of cold but I'm still able to make 00:16:07.69000:16:07.700 a video of the thermostat I don't think 00:16:09.16000:16:09.170 I've gotten a video of a thermostat 00:16:10.60000:16:10.610 before that's it right there it's turned 00:16:15.04000:16:15.050 off so I yeah there's the thermostat 00:16:18.97000:16:18.980 just a basic Honeywell digital non 00:16:21.94000:16:21.950 programmable thermostat it's like a 00:16:23.53000:16:23.540 miniaturized version of my grandmother's 00:16:25.65000:16:25.660 focus bro and there's the air filter the 00:16:33.46000:16:33.470 air handlers up in the attic of the
