Ok so the three month AC project has been fun .. *sort of*
But now I can officially have a Guinness :-)
If any did not know I decided I needed some incentive to finish up the AC project so I said no good bear unitll I finished and had things running. I am officially closing the book on this stage in the AC project. There are still a few things to be done (see list below, its growing) but the system is on and running.
This weekend the sheet-metal return was finished so I picked that up, making two trips in the camry. This unit mounted easier that I expected and fit almost perfectly into the planned space. There is quite a large draw on the intake so this will most likely have to be modified a bit in the future (add more sq in for intake) for a quieter system. For now however this works and the bit of added noise is not noticable. I also changed the drain to slope down a bit more. I had to make some cuts that I really did not want to do on the house but there was no other way to get the slope to do what was needed (crossing fingers here). So the system is running and was set to hold at 73 degrees today. This was not much of a test for the overall system but the cool air was definatly moving in the rooms.
